I don't come on here much anymore

I don't come on here much anymore
It's not because I'm tired of it, 
And I haven't stopped writing 
Actually that's pretty much all I've been doing
There's this thing that I've been writing for exactly a year now
(now it's longer than Harry Potter and the Sorceror's Stone, hehe yay)
And I haven't really written anything else
I would share it but when I do
It feels like people are looking inside my soul and poking around in my brain and knowing every feeling I've ever had and I want people to see it but not yet it's too much
I want to have other things to write about
But it's all I am now
It (quite literally) saved me from       everything
A while ago
And I'm ready to be saved by it again
But I don't know if I'll come on here much anymore
I'm very sorry 
It's so magical here

I just wanted to say something

    I’m sorry to hear you will not be visiting YWP for a while. You are an amazing writer and will be missed wether it be for a week or a few months. When you are ready to share this story that you speak of, we’ll be here waiting. Not to judge or ridicule but to comfort and praise. Your YWP family wants what’s best for you.

    Thank you so much for the support! Maybe someday I will share my project, and maybe it will end up in bookstores... :)
