Back on the Front Burner

It's been over a month since I've written. This last month has been filled with plans, and adventures, and amazing memories. But this last month has also been filled with excuses, and justifications, and pushing my writing onto the back burner.

I turned 23 three days ago. I've been on this earth for 23 years. And on the eve of my 23rd birthday I made a statement that I am allowing to shape my life over this next year.

I decided to put my writing back on the front burner of my stove. I'll be turning the fire on high and attending to it constantly and consistently, giving it the attention it deserves. Because if I don't, it's going to grow cold. And I'll be damned if I let that happen.

I was meant to be a writer.

I'll be repeating this statement to myself over and over as I state this journey that I've been so scared of. It's taken me far too long to take this step, but if there's anything I've learned throughout my last 23 years (okay, maybe my last 7 years), it's that the universe is all about timing.

That being said. stay tuned for some words from yours truly. I promise not to disappoint.
