Why Write?

Being a teenager is hard. Our parents often force things upon us that lead us to depression and the loss of sense of belonging. Sometimes, you just want to scream out loud but you're scared of the embarrassment it would cause. Well, writing channels your energy in the same way, except that rather than embarrassment, it wins you recognition.

Pick an incident in your life. An incident that haunts you our causes you pain. It can be a memory too, in fact, it can be anything. Think about it, and them write about it. You'll be surprised what that can do for you. You might hit dead ends at first, but keep going, keep pushing yourself and keep on writing. In the end, you'll end up with something worth reading and mark my words, you'll be proud of it.
