My writing is severely underdeveloped because I hardly read as much as I should. I know if I only read a lot more books (incl. fiction even though I really enjoy non-fiction) my writing would be on another level.
Writing comes really easy to me, I could literally sit and write for hours on end and my computer freezes because of all the writing I have saved on it. Writing is kind of theraputic for me. Also, when I was a teen I had a medical condition in my thyroid which affected my voice. I was really ashamed of speaking so written words were my primary means of communication and I wanted to develop it. Sort of like how blind people have above average hearing.
As a kid, writing was the only thing that my parents and loved ones said I was good at. And I believed them, still do. I use to write for fun many paragraphs and it would overwhelm both my parents and friends. But now that I am getting older I feel like writing is my true calling. I don't see too many Somali guys being writers.
I want to write a really good novel that can be a best seller. I also want to do some screenwriting for a Netflix series.
I know I don't want to go down the conventional route either. I want to work in theatres. I genuinely like a good human story. And when it comes to producing a body of writing its like I really enjoy the complexities of human life. We see this first hand as third culture kids who live between the east and the west. Life is complicated and the older I get the more accepting of that I am. I feel like I've got a story (or multiple stories) to tell. These things we go through as young men are beautiful. They shouldn't be held within, they should be confidently articulated
