I have a blog!

Hello Chic-ca- peas,

Yelp I have a BLOG. Now what do I do with it? Ummmm...

"Write - Dummy," Smartass says.

"No one asked for your opinion," I shout back.

Ok, I think I need to explain. For all my followers and readers I would like to say I have two personalities. The one that rudely interrupts me; is my smartass personality that thinks she knows it all - the one that pushes me every day - the one that I swear is a little on the crazy side. However Smartass is my best friend, the one I count on and the one I would like to shut up from time to time. Smartass and I will get into some heated battles - just ignore us if we start our little rants.

"So your first blog is going to be about me?" Smartass ask with a little chirp in her voice.

"No! I was just explaining that sometimes you like to," I pause tapping my foot, trying to find the words that describe "that bitch" that lives within me.

"Get on with it. People have lives, they don't have all day to wait on a want-a-be writer." Smartass reminds me.

"So now I'm a want-a-be writer? Funny you were the one that said I should pursue it - in fact you are the one that said I had real raw talent. Wasn't it you who named my last book title?" I say as I press the keyboard buttons harder. "Smartass answer the damn question. I have no problem with slinging wood and live a happy life."

"Hey easy Tiger. I just said that you can be anything you wanted to be. You said you wanted to be a writer. So I did what I do best - Give ideas. So you like that title after all?"

I raise my head up - staring out the glass window into the manufacturing plant that I help built. I have conquered my first goal. I did it by working hard, educating myself and loving what I do. And now I will conquer my second goal - I will become a young adult writer and I will do it by working hard, educating myself and loving each stroke of the keyboard. I am a writer.

"Yes I love the title; "Out Of Bounds" is brillant.
