Writing the Wind
http://writingthewinderinew.blogspot.com/
I am a young, unpublished writer. I write poetry, and fantasy fiction. I believe that the fantastic can touch the hearts and minds of readers in a way that mundane reality can not. I have created this blog to post some of my writings. Keep in mind that some pieces may be works in progress. The title comes from a poem my grandmother wrote for me when I was very little, entitled "Ride the Wind" I guess writing was in my blood. I hope you enjoy it. Constructive comments only please.
