Grand Reopening

I didn’t decide to start this on a whim if that’s what you’re thinking. Believe it or not, I’ve actually had this blog for a while now, but I never posted anything because I’m my own worst critic and I was scared of not being good at what I was passionate about. Nothing I ever wrote was good enough for the internet, and nothing I wrote ever made it past my journal or google docs. I didn’t want that hypercritical feeling lingering behind on my little spot that I created on here, so I wiped it clean and decided to start fresh. There really wasn’t a better time than right now to do this with coronavirus rampaging throughout the world and whatnot. 

When I created this about a year and a half ago, my thought process was “Skylar, you want to be a writer but you don’t share any of your work. What’s that about?” I was a WEAKLING, and if you know me, you KNOW I don’t like to feel weak. Then, this baby was created. But even though I pulled the trigger on this blog, most of the time it was just chillin’ here waiting for me to upload something. I’m really determined this time around to get out of my comfort zone and share with those of you who are reading this, just what kind of thoughts swirl around my brain. My online journal if you will. 

While I’ve been re-vamping my pAgE the past few weeks, I’ve seriously brainstormed some of the things that I know I’ve wanted to talk about for a while now. I think they’ll be pretty cool pieces. Some of it will be poetry, some will be scenes I see in my head with characters I’ve created, and some pieces will just be topics I want to discuss with people. AND if you haven’t explored too much on here yet, there IS a video tab which will be up and running once I figure out how to use it properly. 

I want this to be for other people just as much as it is for me. A place where random humans can come together and vibe. Literally just that. VIBE. 

The last time I had stuff up on here, I got a couple of DMs on Instagram from people who were relating to some of the things I was talking about; people from school who I had never really talked to before. I don’t know why I didn’t take that as a sign to keep going with what I was doing, but it’s better late than never. I hope some of you can take what I have to say and relate to it on some level. I hope my words can do what you need them to do for you, whether it be for entertainment, knowing you’re not alone, or just for the purpose of feeling like you’re a part of something special. 

Anyways, welcome to my mind. I hope you like it here :)
