Why


I write to tell stories that demand to be told

I write for myself alone, though viewers aren't rejected if intelligence is present,

I write for those in other worlds who need my hand.

I am a hand to them, I am a writer. 

I write for the adrenaline rushes, the tears, the anger, and the fear;

I am a writer, and these are a few of the reasons why.
