To all you aspiring authors out there, like myself: This is a very beautifully written piece by Aimee Carter called
What It Takes To Write
it's succeeded in making me cry....not just 'tear up' but full on 'streaming'
I hope you guys like it. What do you think? Any personal experiences that can relate? I know this screams at me....it's my calling and it's very obvious to me now. I feel as though reading stuff like this, reading all the truths on top of each other, I see myself. I don't think anyone has written a piece on what writing takes as well as Aimee. I love this.

“I spent my life folded between the pages of books.In the absence of human relationships I formed bonds with paper characters. I lived love and loss through stories threaded in history; I experienced adolescence by association. My world is one interwoven web of words, stringing limb to limb, bone to sinew, thoughts and images all together. I am a being comprised of letters, a character created by sentences, a figment of imagination formed through fiction.”
