Right now (and perhaps I'm a bit over-dramatic) but I feel like my entire life is a traumatic experience, so every time I write, no matter what the story is about, elements of my life are there. But I have yet to seriously sit down and write a full story about the crappy side of my life. In any case, writing is SO therapeutic, it helps immensely. <br /><br />This was an awesome post, thx for sharing! : ) Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05407175441454059973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4913391191340548274.post-12864762614779378172013-03-28T14:10:36.073-04:002013-03-28T14:10:36.073-04:00Oh my gosh, that's great.

You could probably learn a lot about your writing process through reading them --aside from the run ons. I've only a couple creative wring papers from school. I wish I had more, but we moved just about every year of my childhood. <br /><br />I do have a box of journals from my early 20's and NYC party/nightlife. Almost scared to open that pandora's box--I may not know who that girl is.<br /><br />Love reading this--you have in fact inspired me--to dig up the cobwebs of the past. :) Thanks for this post.<br /><br />K.
