Please give feedback!


            So… Yesterday got a little busy and I forgot to write. I know I still need to finish the story about the lost Valentine’s card, but I don’t think I’m going to do that today. So, what am I going to write about today? I have no idea…

            I’ve been watching a lot of youtube lately. Yeah, not so good but very entertaining. Mostly Luke Conrad, some Joey Graceffa, and I’ve really started liking watching and listening to Landon Austin. They all have amazing voices and are great story tellers. I would recommend watching some of their stuff when you’re bored or need to smile.

            I have an uncle who is really good at telling stories. I’m actually not very good at telling them, but I’m better at writing so I’m okay with that. I’m really terrible at telling jokes because I want it to be the exact wording the way I heard it. It never is though, so I give up on trying to be funny half way through. When the punch line is given weakly it’s not so funny.

            I think I’d like to make a youtube video one day. I was a music major once upon a time, so I maybe could. Listening to them has started stirring up my love for music again. I played guitar yesterday. I’ll be doing so drumming on djembe tonight. I don’t know anything about making a video, but I could learn. As I’ve said in a prior blog, music is sometimes a painful thing for me since I wasn’t good enough and that’s a huge issue for me. But a lot of times your biggest problem ends up being the best thing in your life. If I can get over my fears and just do music, I really think God could do some really amazing things through it.

            Not that I will give up my dream of being an author (update: finished 9 chapters of my book! Still a long way to go, but in all honesty, I’m not sure I ever believed I would get this far. I could really use some motivation. It would be really great if anyone reading this would leave a comment. I see that people have come to this blog, but I’m not totally sure I believe it. If you could leave a comment telling me how you got here and if/why you like to read this. And if you absolutely hate what I write, tell me that too! I love honest feedback, and I want to know how to improve. Just keep in mind that all of these blogs are rough drafts and have never been proofread.

            So, I guess this have kind of been an update and me begging for some interaction. Tell me what you want me to write about, if you have any free writing proms, etc. Hope to hear from you!
