I think I need to start reading books again.

I'm okay. I'm depressed, still but I'm doing my best to overcome it.

I started writing a book myself. Well, my fourth one. Another poetry memoir of my life because I seem to have so many stories to tell. It's about the five stages of grief. In my case, that grief was from a long-term relationship that lasted almost 9 years.

It was inspired by a series of poems I wrote under the same name (it's on Hello Poetry -- it's named like this: 'the five stages of grief: depression).

When I wrote the other 3 books, which revolved around my fall from meth addiction, it helped me heal in a way.

So that's why I begun work on my fourth book, in hopes of healing again, and writing it so others can heal, too.
