I am an artist and a writer, but a lot of times I can't get anyone interested in my writing or artwork. I want to write books and publish, but because most of the time, people aren't that interested, I just write and don't share a lot of it. I believe I am talented. I've been told by someone I'm a literary genius. Another person told me I'm so talented as an artist this must be why I'm here.
But what can you do when most people aren't interested or don't care? I'm not a famous person, so my work feels pretty irrelevant. People only care if you're high profile and famous.
I want to believe there's a place for my art and writing in this world, but sometimes it's hard to feel that way. It feels like this is my passion and one of my purposes. I started writing when I was in 4th grade, by Middle School I was working on novels and novellas. I won an art scholarship and awards. But...it's hard when you feel so invisible. So I just sit here in my solitude, writing and creating things mostly for myself that others will never see.
If you speak and no one hears you or ignores you, what is the point?
