New to the world of blogging
This is a first for me, new to the world of blogging. Writing words is no issue for me, after the spellcheck runs through all else is smooth :)
I'm just a daydream believer girl, living in a world of clouds where anything is possible, of course I bring myself back down to earth every while, once the dreaming time is over and awake time is needed. There's work to be done, study to complete, and all the worries of 'normal' life.
Normal. What is normal?
Life? Bigger question, the question everyone wants an answer for. What is the meaning of life?
I don't know, but for me the meaning of life is making the most of the life you've been given, using the skills you have and passions you find for yourself. It doesn't matter if you're a baker, singer, artist, writer, banker, desk job, whatever. What you do to make money is never who you are as a person. I worked in a donut shop for nearly two years, does it mean that's all I can do? No, at least, I hope not. I hope there's something better and greater out there for me, somewhere. All I can do is try I guess.
My Top Fave things:
Writing, but I guess before this comes daydreaming.
Before I was 13 or so, I didn't think to pick up a pen and write, all these ideas were in my head but i thought I was nuts for having them. It worried me that it wasn't normal to daydream so much, which I guess it isn't. That moment I picked up the pen was the moment I was called. It was like something screamed at me, this is what you're meant to do.
Fast forward a good - well, I'm 22 now, and still I can't be classified as a 'real' writer as I have yet to be published. I have just yesterday uploaded my first ebook on Amazon. So far, zero sales :) It's been a day, calm down. Let me tell you, it's hard formatting those books for the upload. It took me a while learning how to stop the headings coming up blue.
I think It's fixed as best I can without paying some top guy to do the work. As a young person, studying to be a youth worker, and have no 'real' job to speak off, money can be tight.
Because this is the first ever blog I've created, I'm not completely sure what I should be writing, So i will let my mind to the talking and hope to write some interesting things along the way :)
