2024 is the year I finish the memoir I began in 2012. ✨📝✨ To help get me to the finish line & drafting these last few chapters, I am turning to journaled wisdom from myself, circa July 2012.
"Writing is weird because you spend so much time alone. Writing. To an audience. That doesn't exist! Not at first at least.
Time and patience. Hoping and waiting. For "THE BIG BREAK". When you finally feel validation.
But—it doesn't happen for everyone.

But—it doesn't happen for everyone.
And maybe it'll never happen for me.
But at least, I TRIED. And I am TRYING.
Because at the end of the day, I can feel better about myself for trying.
And it's all in the hopes that my writing—my voice—can help others find a place.

Maybe I'm somebody's Tupac Shakur.
Who fucking knows?
Maybe that weird dude on the bus is my Tupac Shakur.
Who knows?
NO ONE WILL—if you don't try.
So, here's to trying!
Phew."
