20 Something- SZA

I thought this would be a lot harder to start if were being honest. I tend to think that about a lot in life though. Always making mountains out of mole hills. I know a lot of us do that though.

Anyway, I have always loved writing and I have wanted to be a writer since Mrs.Peele's Eighth grade English class. I hand wrote my first MLA personal story. A letter to senior year us or a background meet the teacher kind of deal. There was something in her voice when she recommended I write more. Since then I've spent every chance I can writing about something, anything really. Finding myself in the stationary sections at every TJMaxx, Marshals, Ross and Home-goods looking for another journal. I spent the summers of high school writing on Wattpad with my best friend. Writing lives we haven't lived yet. I think I wanted to write about my life because I haven't ever read anything like it. Even all of the books I grew to love, the main characters were always skinny white girls with blonde hair. The family dynamics, the culture, the traditions, the language, none of them were catered to girls that looked like me.

So that brings me here. Writing to someone Ill get to know very soon. Maybe she looks like me. Or maybe she's dating a boy that acts like an ex boyfriend of mine. Or maybe she relates to the gifted burnout kid who has no idea what she wants in life. Either way I know that this will reach the right audience. The universe or God or whatever you believe in will bring this to you when you need it. Or maybe I'm writing to an Andrea in another life. No matter the reason. I'm thankful you're experiencing this Adderall induced dream of mine coming to life. I want this to grow but for now I'm learning as I go. Suggestions and criticism are always welcomed and appreciated. Welcome to the show.
