What is the aim or goal of your writing: "In 1994, my grandmother gave me a journal. For some reason, that journal inspired me to begin writing. I think I write for the joy of creating something new. My mind is generally always running and it's nice to put it on paper. I'd say my 'success' is from not second guessing, thinking big, sticking through the tougher times, answered prayers, and luck."
