How are you? I\u2019m going to be spending most of my day at doctors, both for myself and my dad, so I won\u2019t be getting much writing done for my Camp NaNoWriMo project. Still, I wanted to give you something for Topical Tuesday, and thus began searching for a good prompt- and that\u2019s when I found the perfect challenge instead: Telling you my life story in a mere paragraph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before I delve into my history some more, I\u2019d like to note this is a great writing practice. A paragraph about each character\u2019s life story would be both daunting and yet incredibly helpful. I tend to write very long biographies for them\u2026 Shortening them might be nice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Okay, without further ado\u2026 My life in a nutshell:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>I was born, raised, and remain in a little state known as New Jersey. I grew up in a dysfunctional family that was almost always fighting, at least on one side. My mother was an addict and finally left the family, leaving me shattered. After more people came and left, my heart became twisted-  I can no longer see the shades of gray in the world, only black and white. To trust is to bring harm to me. That\u2019s a lesson that I\u2019ve learned over and over again.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>As you can see, my paragraph isn\u2019t very compelling or giving in detail. I don\u2019t think I\u2019d normally do this kind of thing for myself. Still, I gave you a glimpse into my life- one you probably already had, but still! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What do you guys think of this challenge? If you\u2019re up for it, I challenge you to write a paragraph biography as well! Share it with me in the comments, so I can get to know you better. I\u2019ll say it can be as long or short a paragraph as you\u2019d like\u2026 Just please, humor me and give it a try.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Until next time\u2026 Bye bye~!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hihi!
