book writing long
I don't want to be famous per se, but I want to write books for as long as I can. And I plan on writing a lot.
taken school writing
I've taken every writing class I've had available. I took classes in high school, and I took English and writing classes in community college, but I dropped out of college. I also attended a local writing workshop two years ago.
