Fall and Fly

Although it is the name of my blog, the name had to come from somewhere at first. It originated in my favorite Gaiman quote: "Sometimes you wake up. Sometimes the fall kills you. And sometimes, when you fall, you fly."

Although it's meaningful in just one way at first, it begins to apply itself to other situations as time goes on. So it is my favorite quote.

Now, seeing as I was too lazy a few minutes ago to tell a little about myself, I will now. I'm a writer...kind of. I haven't written my whole life, like many of the great authors had. I just discovered writing this past year. I got a few compliments from showing my writing to people (I do quite a lot of short story writing) and so I continued doing it as long as others enjoyed it. Slowly, I realized that I enjoyed the actual partaking in putting pen to paper. And so I kept writing, but it was no longer for them, it was for me.

Even if I love writing, I'm no master of the craft. I have a long road ahead of me filled with reading, practicing, and refining. But unlike my previous hobby (drawing. -__-), I'm willing to take the road slowly and enjoy the scenery.

I have to say that I have a few inspirations. Oh? You thought I was going to TELL you the inspirations? No, no, I'm much too lazy right now for that. You'll just have to wait until a later time.

I suppose that's all for now! Adios!
