Thank you for thinking of me. You know I would follow you to the ends of the earth so of COURSE I will respond to your tag. But I think some of my reasons are the same as yours.

Can I just plagarize? :}

(PS – I too love the image you created for this piece. You are talented!)

I love that image and the expression on your face.

Write on!

Wow. Those are all great reasons – and FREAKY so many of them are similar to my own reasons too.
Cool stuff Chelle!

There always seems to be at least one teacher in everyone’s past that had to be a jerk. Mine was a math teacher. Thank goodness all my English and writing teachers were very encouraging…

I write for much the same reasons. (Especially liking the comments on my blog, although I don’t get many.)!!

You are a great writer. I envy people like you. I guess that is why I do not write in my blog everyday. I feel like I have really not much to say to the world, and if I do, I am not sure how to express it.

Keep writing, my friend.

I’m so sorry that happened to you. It sticks with you a long time, doesn’t it? I hope she had some positive characteristcs?

I’m much the same myself I think, although I suspect that self expression for me, is some kind of weird therapy to help me make sense of it all. There’s nothing like trying to commit your thoughts and experiences to paper [or the written word] to help bring a little clarity.

This will be tough. I consider myself more a rambler than a writer. You put me in rarified company.

Chelle, This is a beautiful essay. Thank you so much for sharing and playing along.

Okay, I am not going to be able to type, I’m sobbing already. Just know that while my story had different characters and plot part one ended the same way. I am glad you found your voice again to move into part two and share it with us.
