Romance Writer
One of Many
I write into the mist.
​
Few people read the words I select yet still I write, and I know I am one of many. I'm not alone in this. There are writers out there who write for themselves with no audience in mind.
​
I raise my hand sheepishly.
​
My fiction is for others as much as for myself, but my poetry has always been as private as my thoughts.
​
With hidden tunnels and secret pools, I am one of many. I call myself a writer. I am the person who stares into space having fantastical sword fights and deathly fights with witches and demons. I see aliens in the shadows and werewolves standing in the streetlights. Full moons and blinking stars dance behind my eyes. Music plays in my head. Conversations in my ears.
​
I am a whisper in an orchestra. One of many, I'm lost in a crowd, but I'm okay there because I juggle balls from hand to hand.
​
One of many. I am a writer.
