I want to write...

I want to write things that mean something about life. I want my readers to have a deeper understanding about others. or themselves. after reading my words, their words, the world's words.

I want to write about a boy I like/liked without worrying that he will figure it out. I want to write about a boy that I don't like/don't know without worrying about assumption.

I want to write about how awful family is, yet that is why it is wonderful. I want to write about how my brother annoys me, my mother interrogates me, my father frustrates me. And I want to do it with the kind of words that show layers of humanity.

I want to unravel the ribbon and stretch out the slinky.

I want us to see what we are made of. Add a little sweetness, add a bit of bitterness, add some hate, add some love, add confusion, heavily.
