Preface: A Poised Quill

It is always so exhilarating to try something new and scary. Although, I’ve made (and deleted) blogs before, this one I’m hoping to keep and to people who know me, that is something new.

I’ve always always been so scared and insecure of my posts and blogs before. Maybe it’s because for so long, I’ve been dreaming to become a good writer and I’ve been so scared of failing at it even without having to try first. I am surrounded with so many talented writers whom I call my friends, my mentors, and my inspirations–all of them are leagues away from where I am now in terms of writing. Yes, I am just full of jealousy and bitterness like that. But now, screw it! I’ll write for myself and hopefully, to learn more and fulfill my dream of becoming a worthwhile writer someday.

As Vincent Van Gogh said,

   "I dream my painting and I paint my dream."

From now on, I’ll apply the same mantra with writing (and generally, life): I dream of writing and I write my dream. This blog will be the start of it.

So look out world! Bobbie is here with her quill poised and ready for action. ;)
