I am a writer. I write things. This year, I’m taking the Creative Writing class offered, have a teacher I actually like (even though my classmates are pretty pretentious), and I’ve been writing more and I honestly believe it is making me happier.
For some reason, this makes me want to do art. Right now, I’m excited about something I’ve been working on in that class, but I don’t want my writing to overlap. Also, I’ve wanted to pursue art for awhile now.
I’m actually worried about it, though. I feel intimidated by the quality reached by a lot of other people in class, and when I draw it is in a very different style. One of my biggest fears is being the odd girl out, without having already accepted that role privately. Therefore, all of my art is reserved in that I am not quick to show it, and am very protective of it. I’m even afraid it isn’t art at all.
Don't get me wrong, I don't want to stop writing, I just want to even it out a bit.
On another note,
I am really proud of my portfolio blog. It’s linked at the top of my blog and I’ll even link it here again. It’s a new feeling for me to be openly proud of my writing. Commonly, it is thought that people who say that they’re modest are in fact not so. But, I am modest, especially about my writing, and don’t give myself enough credit. This is me giving myself credit. And I want people to read my work. I want to grow confidence, even if it’s slow but sure.

I know what you mean by wanting to branch out into something different. Often times when I'm in a show, I'll play the serious role because I have the look for it and apparently I can be intimidating which I can agree with, I guess, at times. It varies. I'm super happy that I am playing a comedic role at the moment, Fred Graham in Kiss Me Kate because it's something different, it's a new challenge and overall a new journey.
