Welcome!
If you are my friend: hello, I love you, and I probably miss you.
If you are a stranger: hello, and thank you for taking the time to visit my little corner of the internet!
I created this blog because I am a writer who isn't quite sure how to be a Writer.
That is to say––what do I actually want to write? How do I get a job as a writer? If I write things and try to sell it as a marketable product, will people ever actually buy it? Can I write a poem every day of my life and subsist on the soul-nourishment of creativity alone? etc.
(You know us writers: we tend to be rather dramatic).
So, to quote Hamilton, I decided to write my way out. My aim is to write whatever pops into my head, spend an obsessive amount of time editing it, and put it out into the world.
Not only do I hope that this can serve as an evolving portfolio of my work, but I also hope to write something meaningful that can uplift my readers. After all, writing is creation, and creativity has the power to reshape the world.
Happy reading and love always,
Anika
