I'm 19 years old and have been writing poems and stories for as long as I can remember. Next fall, I'm going to college to major in journalism, or some kind of English. Most of my poems come from life experiences. Most of my stories come from inside my crazy head. A dream of mine is to have a published book of my poetry. I'd like to write a novel, but honestly, I don't think I have the patience. Maybe a book with a bunch of short stories...
Any criticism, comments, suggestions is always very much appreciated and will taken in great stride.
