It all begins with the first year of high school. I knew that i have a lot of fun drawing and painting. I wasn’t sure that I wanted a career of being an artist.
I tried other art classes from design, photography, writing and ceramics. Later, I took an art class and my teacher noticed my worked and loved it. She said that I can do amazing things with my work. It seems that my creative mind is really talented, when it comes to the creative field of any kind. I don’t have to think much, just create something out of nothing.
My backstory & making of my book
After graduating from high school in 2013. I took a year off and became a full-time babysitter for my little sister.
I wasn’t sure what I should do with my life.
I poured my heart and soul into taking care of my little sister. At the same time, in my free time I did my studies from the books I had at home or at the library. As well as cooking and cleaning the house. These were my jobs.
I don’t regret my choices. I did look at art colleges but no one of them didn’t seemed to be good. So, I dropped that idea and focused on work and what makes me happy. I didn’t waste my 20’s. Some people think that I did, but I wasn’t much of a traveler. Going from place to place wasn't my style. I did learn important things such as child care and self-taught education from books.
Back in 2006, as a child I thought about fantasy worlds and what’s beyond the universe. That’s when I thought about creating my own little world. I did daydream a lot as a child, and yes I did get in trouble. Nothing stopped me from thinking of creating a new world. When I sleep, I can feel, smell, and see my world that I created. A world of sword fighting, dragons, and magic all around.
When I wake up, I remember everything.
In July of 2017, I decided to write down all of my thoughts and dream adventures in sketchbooks and notebooks. Even on post it notes too. I filled one after another for years until I got a good idea of a story I wanted to tell.
I thought about making a webcomic or an animated series on youtube. That didn’t go well, so in the end I wrote a book. Writing my book made it easy for me and my writings made it happen.
I started writing in the summer of 2022. I challenged myself to finish the book before the end of summer. Which I did, got it done within 2 months, with 9 chapters. I’m proud of myself and my notes for my book. That helped me alot.
That’s my life story as a writer. Starting with a passion for writing my book and with no money to get started with. Doing it because I wanted to share my stories to the world.
