Hey! Sorry for the lack of posting! I've been sick with pink-eye and other lovely symptoms.
Today I would like to talk about criticizing. Now, I hate criticizing. Nothing worse than working really hard on something and you don't get the responses you want. So in the past few months I had to learn about you can't expect to much out of people you can't expect your best friend to say "Wow! That is awesome!!!" Then he/she doesn't comment at all and it just leaves you all disappointed and you want to give up on your passion. I've gone through this multiple times and I still go through it. So what I do to take care of it is to continue doing it even if I don't want too. Then I remember the times when I did get positive feedback and then I realize I'm not here to please everybody! I saw something really helpful for me, So I was watching a you tube video and it was about pies. Now let's say you are a pie a apple pie to say not everybody likes apple pie right? So they may not like you and that's okay. You are not here on earth to make dozens of individual different pies to please every single person. You are making a pie that you like and God likes. So you got to be the best person you can be even if people don't like you but that's okay because just remember you do have people that like you. :)

Sorry there wasn't much about writing in here. I kind of ran out of ideas for a blog so please, please, please comment down below questions you want me to answer! I might write about your question or topic. Thank you once again! :)

Inspiration.

Inspiration can be a tough thing to find. It hides well and its easy to find if you know how to find it. Now I am going to give you few tips of how to find inspiration for writing or anything. When I write I listen to dramatic music. It makes the scene more dramatic and I have lesser chance of getting writers block. Listening to music with words gets me distracted and I don't write as much as I would with music without words. Now I would listen to instrumental music in a heart beat, but some people won't it all depends on your personalty. :) 
The next tip is look at pictures of your topic. That will get the brain to think "Hey! I could use this!" and BAM! an idea has formed! Now it might not work but it's always worth a try especially if you're desperate! If you were wondering what kind of book I am writing its a Fantasy book. I love writing it. I will write for hours, and hours, and hours... I can't even describe how much I love it! 
Last but not least my last tip! Talk to your family or friends get out and do something instead of sitting  there and thinking and waiting for an idea. I take walks to get inspiration I even narrate my life and that helps! (Crazy I know.) But I do! I go for walks, I hang out with family and I will describe what I'm doing and also I will describe the weather and I even use them in my book. sometimes.
Thank you guys so much for the comments and views on here! It's really encouraging to read positive comments. Thank you for that! Please! I want to know what you guys want my future blog posts to be about! Ask a question and I might write about it! Thank you again for everything!

How I became a writer.

How I became a writer.

Now I've loved writing ever since I was small. I loved to create books and show them to my parents! It was seriously one of the funnest things I have ever done! They were really corny though but hey I was like 10. I didn't know much about writing. I used to write about horses because I was obsessed with them at the time. You may know me for loving horses and don't get me wrong I love horses! I just can't be around them as much as I want to. Now I know a lot more about writing. I know how to do all kinds of stuff. English in 7th was one my favorite classes. I loved it! I love writing essays and reading articles and of course pleasure reading. Now I've written plenty of books and a lot of them aren't done. I have a 200 page book that isn't done. I have a 100 page book that isn't done. I kind of just stopped writing them though. I think every writer has gone through that though just out of ideas just blanking out often known as writers block or just not interested in that topic anymore. But if it wasn't for those books I wouldn't love writing today.

Why I love writing.

Well it takes me to a world where I feel like I belong and not so lonely and forgotten. You could say that my book is based off of my feelings now if you ever read my book I make the emotions in my book a lot stronger than they are in real life. I just love the feeling of being free and feeling like I can do anything. Because writing really boosts my confidence I feel like I can do anything. Ever sense I've been writing I haven't felt so alone or invisible I feel like I am so happy to be alive because writing really helps with my feelings. Now this blog is really helping me get all of my true feelings out and now I feel just great!
