My First Post

I have often thought that I’d like to write a book. Only, I have a hard time keeping things organized in my brain and I think I might have a touch of ADD so it’s hard for me to sit at the computer very long and stay on one task. The book I’d be interested in writing has to do with stories of my life. So, I don’t think it would flow. It would have to be a book of shorts. At one time I thought of titling it Memoirs of a Former Slut. Sound catchy? Well, I suppose I should explain. The explanation will also let you in on what many of my topics could be about on this blog… if my ADD doesn’t keep me from ever writing on here again.

Like millions of people all over the world, I was sexually abused when I was a child. As a result, I was quite promiscuous in my teens up into my early 20s. I drank a lot, dabbled in drugs, and was an all out good time party gal! I have so many stories of things that happened in my life, some sad, some funny. Many times, after I’ve just told a story, people will say, “you’ve got to write a book!” Once, I went to the house a guy who one of my friends was seeing and as we waited for him to get ready, she noticed some writing on his desk. He had actually written one of my stories down. The funny thing was. I had never told him the story, she did.

So, rather than freak out about my lack of confidence in writing a book, I figured I’d start blogging. This way I can get out stories as I think of them and get an audiences opinion. Who knows, maybe I will compile some day. This blog will consist of true stories from my past, as well as rants, raves, and generalities. I should warn now that I may annoy some, so I apologize. I have a learning disability called ‘dysnomia.’ That means that I often can’t think of the correct word to use, which is worse when speaking, or I will use words incorrectly. That said, I’m glad to be here and look forward to questions, comments, and subcriptions!
