In college I excelled in my written English classes. I still write short stories and when I do write letters the recipients will sometimes write back saying "well I can't write a letter like you can". I'm not tooting my own horn trust me I'm not that type. I am crafty as far as crochet and homemade wreaths and decorations. My daughter who I'm watching very closely for the bp signs I displayed at a young age is an amazing little artist already. I'm currently working on some info packs about bipolar for my therapist and somewhere in the it said that people who are bipolar have a major tendency towards creating and also that a major percentage of bp people have an above average IQ.
