to me
I'm a very unique person. Some may even say weird, excentric or even crazy. I don't mind the labels. I'm an artist. I don't strive to be normal because good art isn't going to come from the norm. It comes from the imagination.
I have a unique style and it's how I'm comfortable. I like corsets, boots, fishnets, and plaid skirts. I love my kitty ears, my giant bows and flower crowns. I am me and I will rock all of those things regardless of what people think.
I say, especially for artists, express yourself. Show off and parade your individuality with pride. Do whatever you want to do and screw anyone who tries to dull your sparkle. Be extra. Be wild. Be creative. Be you!
My books are an extension of me. I will never hide. I will never be fake. I will never be ashamed to be who I am.
I'm opinionated, I talk too much, I don't like kids and I don't want to be censored. That's me. Love me, or get out of my way.
Being strange and unusual was difficult as a kid but I'm glad for it now. It made me the writer I am. It made my books stand out. They are me.
Peace and love.
