I love creativity and can appreciate all forms of it. I used to draw, too, but stopped after some time. Just got over it. Happens with me sometimes.

We sound a lot alike. I am a writer as well, and say that before I say anything else about myself (I major in biology/physics... but writer comes out first). It was, and is, my "one true love". I can live happily never having a significant other and knowing that I have a notebook to write in, and a keyboard to type on.
Writing has been my ONE truly healthy coping mechanism, as I am free to be me and bring ideas and such to life, even if they're only alive to me. Writing is such a gift to us all, I think. It can really be universal.
