…….when you knew me I think I was some kind of wild thing, a slave to sensation and emotion, governed without the wisdom I now have in my later years. What happened to that girl you ask, where did she go?…she is still here, in some sense, still craving the subtleties of recklessness- still wanting to be something more than she is…..though many will say who she is now surpasses any imagined persona, they will say who she is now is beyond that misguided image of the pretty girl or the smart girl or the talented girl or even the wild girl….somehow she is all those, all at once, like a kaleidescope, brilliant and genius in it’s making….

(I’ve been toying with the notion of writing an actual novel for quite some time. I’m taking the plunge! I hope it doesn’t suck!)

Thank you Bek! I am excited and slightly terrified!
Why put off your dreams? That is one regret you should never have.
