Seriously - it's hard to stop writing and I never have to worry about finding things to write about. I'm forever dreaming up new ideas and wanting to get them down on paper, so writer's block has never been a problem for me. My main problem is not having enough hours in the day to write!(less)

I've worked all my life, sometimes at jobs I didn't like, so I know what it's like to live in the 'rat race'. Now I feel free.

Writing is empowering and it allows me to express myself creatively. That's priceless and gives me a feeling of purpose in life. Writing is in my soul and I couldn't imagine a life without it. I have to write!(less)
