I began writing poetry in high school. I was struggling emotionally (a teenager w/ issues - go figure!) and writing was a release for me. I got away from it for a while and though I consider myself an "amatuer", it is still a passion for me. In the last few years, I picked up my pen & paper again and I just can't stop writing. My faith guides most of my writing these days & I've come to enjoy writing lyrics as well as poetry. God bless, Tracy
