There’s something magical about putting pen to paper or fingers to keyboard and watching words flow effortlessly. For me, writing isn’t just a skill—it’s a part of who I am. It comes as naturally as breathing, and it’s been that way for as long as I can remember.
From the moment I learned how to form words and sentences, writing became my sanctuary. As a child, I would spend hours writing stories and letters to people and filling notebooks with my thoughts, dreams, and song lyrics. There was something incredibly freeing about the ability to express emotions that I couldn’t always articulate out loud.
Writing is more than just a hobby; it’s my way of communicating. Through writing, I can share my thoughts, feelings, and perspectives with others. It allows me to connect with people deeper, to reach out and touch their hearts and minds.
For some, writing can be a daunting task, a struggle to find the right words. But for me, it’s effortless. Words flow from my mind to the page with a fluidity that feels almost instinctual. It’s as if the thoughts in my head are already perfectly formed, just waiting to be transcribed. This ease of expression is a gift I don’t take for granted, and I strive to nurture and develop every day.
That’s why I have recently started a “JUST FOR YOU” section on TikTok, where I encourage people to give me 3 words of their choosing, and I will craft a poem just for them. You can share your 3 words if you head over to the TikTok page (https://www.tiktok.com/@reagd_poetry/justforyou), or you could leave me the three words in the comments of this post.
Looking forward to writing for you,
Andrea
