And so it Begins...

Just start writing....?

 

I feel like I'm starting with no real guide, no confidence in the quality. 

Someone please give me the arrows to follow. Draw the dotted lines for me to trace. 

Show me how to make an A, B, C.

Let me perfectly cut it out. Or color in the space and not go outside the lines.

 

Then you judge it. Will you see where my hand slipped, where I didn't hold the pencil just right? 

Of course you will. How could you not?

 

What if I hold it up and you stand back and look? 

Not too close. 

Dim the lights.

 

There. Now it's perfect.

The power of a good story, among other things, is to awaken memories.
Here I am entering first grade, and writing sessions bore me, even though I try hard. As a result, I've always written like a doctor; my handwriting is illegible.

I regret being so bored!😏

To tell the truth, I don't regret it at all ☺️. When someone reads my hieroglyphics he becomes real archaeologist.

A good story has the power to alter your viewpoint...but words that stem from the deepest part of any human heart has the power to change lives...and that is something anyone can do...regardless of how you write.

 

Even if not a single other human on earth ever hears those stories...they are still reaching the one person who wants to hear them most💕

For a first entry, this is wonderfully raw and visual — like you invited us into your head while you sharpened the pencil. You caught that awkward mix of nerves and determination every writer knows, and somehow made it feel cozy. If this is your “just starting,” I’m sticking around for when you start running with the scissors.
