I've been writing for as long as I have been able hold a pencil and formulate words. But it was only recently that I decided that I really wanted some other people to read my work, because, as flawed as it is (and sometimes it's downright embarrassing), I have a story I want to tell people. And right now, that is what is driving me to complete my novel, in spite of deadlines for college and homework and work. If I can do this, it will be the first full-length work I will have finished. Root for me, dear readers and fellow wordsmiths!
