I mean, it's the one thing I actually have patience with, besides piano and the people I hang out with. My self-prescribed ADD doesn't apply to it, and that's why i write at all. And of course, there's the annoying fact that there are TWO FREAKING WORLDS stuck inside my head, and I can't get 'em outta there.

But that doesn't mean i'm a writer, it just means I need to take more medicine. <(-_-)>

See, I know all of you guys have a lot of experience with life and general--losing friends, love and loss, diseases, and strong feelings...but I've never gone through any of that. I've had ONE boyfriend, but I've never really been in love, and nothing interesting has ever happened to me. I've had some random and exciting experiences, like Hurricane Rita for example, but nothing that would fit in my book at all. I'm not an English genius, and sometimes I can barely say what I mean. And whenever you guys post something that isn't fiction, it takes me a few tried to get what you actually mean.

I'm just one of those people, you know? Totally, utterly neutral. It takes a lot to get me mad or depressed, and slightly less to get me over the moon...I don't hate anybody and I don't love anybody. It's weird, isn't it?

So all in all, I don't even know how I became a writer. It must just be my love of reading, but I know they aren't the same...and I'm wondering how long i can keep up with my book if I'm not a good writer at all.

I dunno. What do you think?

Kirbs, so we have to go over this again? You are a cool kid. 'Kay?

You lack self confidence and I gonna smack you one. Yesh, my grammar just went down the hell-hole. Bite me.

So anyways. Kirby, you need to stick it out and just go with it. It could be worse. You could be horribly disfigured and living in a nursing home with no one who cared about you.

Not saying anyone is. It was just the first example that came to mind. Old people are cool, by the way.

You're cool enough for me to waste my time laughing and producing cookies for you to inhale, right? -produces nasty chocolate cookies without making faces at the chocolate bits-


Chocolate is so disgusting..

Oooh, I so totally saw that subliminal messaging there.

Well, you know, I can't decide if I'm self confident or not. I ask myself that almost every day, and I never have an answer.

I'm not whining, really. I just wonder if all writers write from experience, cause I don't....and I really want to get my book published, and I'm wondering if it's publishing-worthy. I mean, not now, of course. But someday. Someday hopefully in the next three years.

And sometimes I seem emo, don't I? Half the time I really do think I am. You know how some people get in these suicidal moods and wish they were dead? I do, too, but it's not because anything bad happened--I'm just curious. But then I say, no, Kirby, you have a book to finish. Truthfully, my book's the only thing I really care about, besides my cat and my best friend. THAT's how boring my life can be.

Am I strange or what?

See... When I write I write one of two things: What I've experience, or what's worse than what I've experienced.

If it's worse... it's my way of preparing for that event to happen. I seem to be made for bad things...

Anyhoo... you have to write what you know. Reading lets you learn lots of stuff. Experience lets you learn it too...

Experience you'll gain. And until then, keep on making us laugh. We love you Kirby!

Um, I guess I have some experience...my city used to be a forest...?

Well, I'm fishing now.

*thinks about it over hot chocolate*
