writing is good therapy


i'm a trifle short of modesty to own up to the many writings i have indulged my followers to reckon with these past months.


there's nothing extraordinary about my passion for writing. although i tend to write more often about the movies i've seen, and about my family, in words that are far from being plain and simple. it's only a matter of time before a critic describes me as highfalutin. anyway, i wouldn't dare explain my choice of words and writing style even if it means getting paid for it.


i absolutely love reading my posts out loud whenever i can (during my "alone time"). i get a good laugh out of reading my own version of jane's story and sometimes, i edit some words out to soften my approach and tame my vocabulary to make way for reader-comprehension. at the very least, i write because writing is my therapy.


after years of dealing with legal jargons, i am at liberty to choose a manner of writing that would best suit my mood, allow my eager brain to defrost, and relax my sentiments. i don't know of other ways to console my anxiety. i am open to suggestions.


a lot of people appreciate my style, though. i plan to write a novel to divert my attention from bad news and negative thoughts. i can never thank this (sort of) diversion enough for occupying my time while the bar results lurk in the shadows. i get cranky this time of the year, and i suppose you cannot blame me for that.


i hope it's ok to wish that you would support me if i do decide to have my novel published. keep your fingers crossed for me.
