Am I A Writer?

My paternal grandfather (Papa) was an English Professor at the University. He bought me the first two Harry Potter books when I was young - I remember that I wasn't super interested in reading them. After I watched the first two movies, I started reading them. I'm not sure if that's where my love of reading began, but it's the earliest memory I can currently bring forth about how I started to immerse myself in the fantasy worlds of book series. I loved Septimus Heap, Charlie Bone, and Warriors - a lot of books about powerful boys. Anyway, I have always had the ability to write well, but I didn't love writing (other than in my Diary) because the only writing I did was for school - forced. This is me falling in love with a different variety of structured and creative writing for myself. Enjoy. <333

Even looking at our birth charts - Capricorn/Aquarius galore, the both of us. I used to describe him as a male version of myself.
