Toni Morrison once said “There is no time for despair, no place for self-pity, no need for silence, no room for fear. We speak, we write, we do language. This is how civilizations heal. My name is Hannah and I am studying creative writing. I have not always been interested in creative writing I just got into it recently, but somehow my 7th grade English teacher said that I had a very distinct voice when it comes to storytelling and he knew that this is where I should be even before I did. I was like “creative writing, really?” Grant it, it took a minute but when I finally got there I was like “huh, creative writing okay I can work with this!”. Here I am 2 ½ books later (waiting to be published) and I am finally starting to get what he was saying. I am truly grateful that this amazing teacher believed in me and saw something that I didn’t see in myself.
A few years later in 2019, that was the year that I started branching out and getting more into various artforms such as: dancing, photography, filmmaking, writing or poetry. This blog is going to serve as an outlet for me to express myself through writing, photographs and short films to hopefully evoke some emotion from people that take the time to read my work. This is my chance to just put my artwork out there and not hold back. My blog will mostly consist of sharing my photos and describing what they mean, how they make me feel but you will also get some travel photos and you might even get some poetry in there. Self-expression is what this blog is all about!
People should read my blog because it will be full of amazing photos, writings, short films and poetry that everyone can probably relate to. It will be nice to finally share my work with the world and just seeing what happens. Come and like my post and join me in this wonderful journey through the next chapter in my life. This is me!
