My results are in – best semester ever – 3 high distinctions and a distinction.  This means I’ve officially passed and finished my degree.  It feels like a real achievement and I’m excited where it’s taking me.  I have made some great friendships with students and professional teaching staff and have the opportunity to pursue my own writing goals with the help and guidance of industry professionals.  It is great to be working on the thing I’m passionate about and to know that this is my true hat in life.

Writing is art and I believe expression through the written word allows an exact imparting of knowledge.  All down the ages written interpretations, whether words or drawings, have been used to communicate things of importance.  The writer takes the reader on a journey through a story, brought alive by imagery and word choice.  I aim to write stories that are thought provoking and provide insight.

Art, whether dancing, singing, acting, painting or writing brings meaning and beauty to life which inspires hope.  It creates a sense of wonder and the idea that anything is possible; it can give meaning when the purpose of life seems unclear.Image

This is sort of another ‘Hello World’ post.  I have been thinking about the purpose of my blog.  It’s nice to have a medium to promote ‘works’ and what I’m up to writing-wise but I’d like my blog to be more than that.  I’d like it to be useful – a place where subscribers could take whatever information is applicable to them and use it or maybe just take some inspiration.

So here goes.  The first lesson I learned in being a writer is to acknowledge yourself as a writer.  I had too often ignored that inner voice that kept telling me I’m a writer.  I went along with other people’s opinions on what I should do career-wise or what I thought I should be doing and had convinced myself that writing could only be a hobby.  But I was never satisfied.  This deep seated passion bubbled around inside me waiting for a chance to emerge, if I would ever let it.  Then something happened in my life that made me look, really look at what I was doing and I saw for the first time, with complete clarity, that I am a writer and always have been.  I knew I couldn’t ignore this knowledge anymore.  I was determined, more than ever, to follow that purpose.  I knew it was right because I felt alive, exhilarated, enthusiastic and passionate.  These feelings were enough of an indication to me that I had found my purpose, my true purpose and there was no going back.  I aligned my life, my activities, my studies and work with writing and from that moment on I’ve followed it.

There is nothing more exhilarating than words flying across a page as a result of spontaneous creative thought.
