Isn’t it so fascinating when we reflect and finally see a golden thread weaving through life, highlighting the twists and turns of our journey on becoming good at something we really love? Impressive how many creative ideas you had along the way x

I related to so many things you said in this post!! I did the same thing with my dolls and toys growing up, where they each had their own backstories and personalities and storylines, but I'd never made the connection that was my love of storytelling showing at an early age. And I too was a drama kid. I was completely obsessed with theatre and was convinced acting was my true calling in life lol. But then when I was 15, I did a full pivot to being obsessed with writing instead, and it's been that way ever since. Now I'm studying English and writing at university.

I found it so interesting to read about your writing journey, I agree that reflecting on how we became writers and why we love writing is so important. Best of luck with your writing journey in the future!! btw, that epic sci-fi space opera sounds like something I'd love to read or watch :)
