“I write because I have to write, like a singer who has to sing or a musician who has to make music. I write not so much as to have people read my writing, I write to connect, to engage, to feel less alone. I also write to allow others to feel related to what I’m writing about, to laugh, to cry, to identify within themselves similar feelings and to evoke a memory. I used to think my journey was so unique yet it’s not, and for that I am grateful. If I can’t be a rock star, then I will be a write star even if in my own eyes.” — Shelley Brown-Weird Girl Adventures from A to Z

I used to think my journey was so unique yet it’s not, and for that I am grateful.
If I can’t be a rock star, then I will be a write star even if in my own eyes.
