Writing... Letters From a Regency Heart

First I will state my reasons for this blog:
Writing for me, can be an outlet to express my truest feelings. In my writings, fiction or otherwise, I feel I can be myself, I can open doors that I wouldn't dare to open in face-to-face conversation...I can give you a glimpse of me, of who I am now, and show you the me I want to be one day. The person who is wholly God's, and wholly true. The person who is real. Because in finding who I am, I want you to find a girl who is not fake, not willing to settle for the kind of acceptance that the world can give, not willing to be someone I'm not in order to find fame and fortune. I want to be a girl who is following my Savior, Jesus Christ, every day, and not worrying about what tomorrow will bring. A lofty goal, perhaps, but it's what I long for.
In my posts I will not attempt to "bare my soul and tell the most appalling secrets" as Amy March says in Louisa May Alcott's Little Women, but what I will try to do is to give you enjoyment and laughter, things to ponder, and things to remember if they are beneficial in your life as well. I may have a burst of inspiration and post insanely long posts, or I may not have much to say at all on any given day... but what I do post, I promise it will be from the heart.

In this blog I would love to hear from those of you who may have something to say. Comment on what you wish, and most of all, enjoy the occasional bits of randomness and thoughtful creativity that makes up my life. It's not always there, but trust me, when I do have something to say and I get to writing/posting, I enjoy it immensely.

A few things about me that may or may not interest you. ;) I'd love to hear about you! If you have a blog, please leave a comment with a link to it! I'll check it out and subscribe. =)

I am a child of God
I am shy
I am dramatic
I am a music lover
I am a Jane Austen fan
I am a romantic at heart (though not quite as much as Marianne Dashwood)
I am a reader
I am still a child at heart sometimes (Disney has made sure of that)
I am an actress
I am a daughter and a sister
I am....me.

Yours &c.,
Kayla Marie
