A hobby:
Ever since I was a kid I loved reading books. I would read all kinds of stories, even if they weren't "recommended" for my age. Reading books made me create whole worlds and sceneries in my head as well as characters and that fascinated me when I was young. Soon, I became a fan of some writers. I discovered it existed a platform online called Wattpad in which everyone could create their own books and novels. There, I read a lot of cool stories I loved and I also discovered other genres.
Someday, I came up with a great idea to write and so I did. I started writing and publishing in Wattpad. That story was, of course, inspired by others I read before and didn't gain a lot of views. However, I didn't mind the views, I just wanted to convert my ideas into a story and I was very proud of myself. At the same time, I started writing another story, more complete and well-structured. That one started gaining views quickly and I remember how happy I was because some people, strangers, would leave me comments about how much they liked my story. I gained more than five thousand views in my second one so I focused on that story instead of the other. My friends also liked them a lot and they always encouraged me to keep writing.
Notwithstanding, I started to struggle a lot at school because (beside other personal problems) each time the level would increase and we would be demanded more, so I focused on having good grades and abandoned writing. Neverthless, each time I had an idea of a book I would write all the details in my phone because there was something clear, I would write them at all costs.
Now, I still don't have that much time to write but when I do, I write infinite chapters and that is one of the things that relieves me the most. Writing about how I feel, how I think, my ideas, poems, letters, novels is one of the things I love the most besides dancing, that's why one of my dreams is to become a well-known, best seller writer and to own an editorial, I hope someday I'll achieve it.
