2/11/2020 0 Comments February 11th, 2020A Letter to My Author-SelfThis story is tied in with writing letters to fallen friends and family. Reconnecting with those a distant memory about existence refreshes, the quest for answers, and even direction or exhortation. This pushed me with thoughts on the best way to reconnect with my very own lost self. This would be my author-self, and in the accompanying letter I'll be searching for reclamation with my creator self and getting one with that self by and by.
Dear Juicy John, I wish we had a better connection with you. I always feel like you have potential, but I didn't have the urge to make you become the best version of yourself. It's like a shy person in High School. Always at the back of class, too scared to talk to people, never putting up your hand to answer questions, knowing that you know the answer. Some parts of me feel like writing is boring but another part of me feels like I could make writing somewhat exciting by bringing certain thoughts to life. Sometimes I wish it could be different. I apologize for hiding you in a place that restricted you from becoming a potentially great writer. I apologize for not giving you a chance to enjoy writing which could have been one of my hobbies or passions. The reason for not bringing you out for all these years is that I would usually be critiqued heavily on my writing, either essays, stories, poems, etc. Most of the time my teachers would give me a bad grade or would say that my writings don't grasp their interests. I would usually get the lowest grade in my class so at that point I laid you to rest because I thought that there was no point in bringing you out anymore. To be straightforward I truly don't have the best idea of how to bring you out in a flash and not exactly when I need you to compose and task. Possibly my initial step is tune in to music and shut everybody out only for the time span. That way it would simply be you dominating and not to hinder you while you compose. Besides, on the off chance that I can't do stage one, at that point I would attempt to locate a peaceful spot since you for the most part say it for all to hear what you need to compose and to you it bodes well. I would also workout to my peak limits because I feel like pushing to exercise outside of my comfort zone and reaching new limits require a lot of self talk to keep you pushing and I think that mentality of getting out my comfort zone would carry over to my writing. Moreover, you request help with this in light of the fact that typically I don't however, you do on the grounds that you wanna pass this class regardless. However, I'm not very sure that these are the means to bring you out more presumably the music for the most part. Ideally, I can make sense of it while I am right now attempting to be a superior author and prepared for the following test after this class. Regardless of whether it's simply to get into the following English class. I simply need to express profound gratitude for staying aware of my garbage and expectation you can pardon me indeed. Sincerely, Jeanliq Mendez
