Focus On Who Supports You

Focus On Who Supports You

Empower & Inspire
I had to learn and realize that everybody you thought would support you won't, and that's okay!  I know it hurts. I know it's disappointing. I know this. I get this. I've lived this.

Empower & Inspire, Writing Tips & Info

For as long as I could remember, we had library class every week, which was the most boring thing ever. I would pick a book out of obligation and never read it. I went through this week after week. Until I found a mystery and fell in love, I can’t remember the book, but I remember finishing it and vowing to visit that section the following week for a new book. Enjoying mysteries shouldn’t have come as a surprise considering all the time I spent watching Matlock and Perry Mason with my grandmother.  I would get a new book, sit in my room,…
