I'd like to think I'm a writer, because I write stuff. I haven't published anything yet, other than this sort of online nonsense. If I don't keep writing, whether or not anyone cares to read it, eventually the stuff inside my head starts to leak out on its own. It doesn't choose opportune, witty, or otherwise appropriate venues to display itself. It's rather like a two-year-old that way. Best keep it in a structured environment where it can't do any harm to itself or others. Unless you actually read some of it. You can reach me at LauraHughesAuthor (at) gmail (dot) com.
