I began this year a student and looked back on the my life while attending college online. Truthfully, I think that I have enough to make a career out of being a freelance writer. I get nervous about the future still but look to my books and plans for reassurance. I need to remember that I choose this path for myself. I have always read and written words and I love stories. I love telling stories as much as I love hearing them, As long as I remeber that and remeber that IT IS ABOUT THE MESSAGE OF THE THEME.

The future theme
Monday, September 19, 2016
Writers have always been in the center of the industry. Film and theater both snap to the artistry and masterwork of a pen and while I continue down this journey of story telling, plot twist and emotionally driven characters I have to pay my respect to the authors before me.
Words are what keep the world turning. Documents of agreement and signatures of love ones tucked in the end of a letter destined to travel hundreds of miles. My ancestors fought for the right to read and write for God sakes. So life and the recording of life seems to work in union. History as we read it often dictates life as we live it presently and the future will be written down and recorded once it's past.
I am a writer, yet I don't feel any different than before writing down the statement. It doesn't call out to me as being my end of all ends decision in what I want to do. I've been watching movies(For research and pleasure) like Devil wears Prada, a film where the central character wants to become a writer for upscale magazines but must first get a recommendation from the most terrifying employer in the business. This film spoke to me because of the emotional journey of this character and the result of her reaching her goal after regaining integrity, something she had been losing towards the end of the film.
Julie & Julia is another film that focuses on a character who wants to be a known writer but goes through more emotional hurdles to get to it. Californication is a television show recommended to me by an old roommate that focuses on a dysfunctional character who has reach success as a writer but must still deal with his life and the everyday struggle of a typical writer in the industry.
I'm starting to notice that with the title of a writer comes problems, regardless of being called an author. So since life is gonna provided me with problems anyway,

To tell a story....
What is it to tell a story? Does it represent out sight as authors in the world or is that everyone inflicting their opinion on the issues of the world?
This is what I think.
The entire history and day to day life of humans is the story that keeps us going. Every story from our religious book, every dream ever had, every emotion we as humans have all shared and had at one point of our independent lives as a collective; all results of society keeping the tradition of life going, learning from the past and looking to the future...
So tell me. What do you think? Does the world seem like a Star Wars film or a Game of Thrones novel to you? Isn't every memory as a collective a story that we all have to ourselves, choosing to share some while burying others.
I write to re tell the story of life through the eyes that I was born with. I can hope that you understand that more than I can. At times, I feel like it's a foolish decision and that if I wanted to become someone that won't have regrets, well, here goes nothing.

Death.....my opinion
Death isn't something that bothers me as much as it used to. People die, that's the truth about life that no can deny or look past. One day you're here, the next you're not. It's the one's that don't see it coming that are the lucky ones. Everyone else who drags out their health, hoping to get better from whatever afflictions and diseases are the ones who learn the hard way that not only does God exist but he has a sense of irony about him. I mean, his own son died in pain and tortured to death, so why would we as people think going out similar to that is so terrible. People die.
Pulse Night Club
June 2016
The nation is mourning the loss of individuals gunned down by a religious extremist who's only true goal in this writer's opinion was to draw attention to the insane method of religions role in society.
No, I'm not an atheist, I do believe that there is a creator ,although ,why is it this creator thought it would be a great idea to create so many different degrees of separation is beyond understanding. People are different from one another ,yes, but in each separation, hatred forms against another.
And I truly want peace after such a hard life, I should dedicate to one of these religions whole heartedly to one of the practices that's been on the planet long before I was.
What does that make the world? An experiment, A bad experiment, To see who will pull through at the end? Who will love and hate? The popular campaign slogan of gay's wanting marriage right is simple that love wins, If that's the case, Is God simply hate, or the people that blindly follow his ancient laws, are they representing hate?
Are we as people trying to make the world a better place by welcoming people to our beliefs or do we simply think we are better than them? Chosen by the most high, to carry out his will, even if it is to kill.
Taking of life is a violation in nature's law some bellieve, Thus the creators law. How would he tolerate murder in his "Heaven". Is it not considered murder to the killers?
And if you love you God so much, Why does he not make the world around you more better than the way you were given it.
Like I said, The taking of life in Orlando was awful for the nation but will it define the ideals of people even more, The murder might have thought of himself as a martyr but just think of the victims and the people who will rally in their wake.Who's the martyr now?

As A Writer.....
As a writer, Do I constantly criticise myself on a daily basis? And by the word "daily" I mean every minute of every hour. I've always been insecure since my teen years ,I know, but now it's something that I find myself trying to live up to, this ideal writer that I keep trying to be.
I still don't feel like a novelist or even a poet at times. I know I have self-doubt in my work before but this feels incredibly different because of my own knowledge of everyday people I see and man, it's something to behold if I don't make notice of everything I see.
What Is it to be a writer, not a successful one ,because I'm still in college for it still , but I still want to know. I know I'm not doing anything to pretend, not like I did when I was younger and unsure what I really wanted to do with my life(Oh please, Like I Know Now) and going to Barnes and nobles unable to even finish a chapter of a book because it was always so cold. Like they didn't want people just reading their book and just buy them instead. I've come a long way since then, though.
Blogging helps me release a lot a tension and voices overlapping in my fat head. Reading to me is as entertaining as watch television, something that according to my parents, I've been watching before I could even speak. When I write and story and tell people about it, I'm proud. I guess that's what makes a writer themselves, knowing their work is theirs and theirs alone the moment they close their laptop, put down their pen and breath fro the first time in ages.
