Hello. I am on here to connect with people and to give and receive support from people who are dealing with similar situations. I was in foster care and I want to use my past experiences to help others who are dealing with similar things that I dealt with. I made my first YouTube video yesterday. Feel free to check it out.
. Also, I am writing an autobiography. Not sure if I am going to get it published though, not the best writer, let alone an author. If you would like to connect, I would really like that. Feel free to pm and/or friend me. I look forward to getting to know you!

Welcome Elianahope!

I am also a writer. Keep trying to submit your work. I still get a lot of rejects, but I have had some of my life's stories and poems published in various venues. Writing about our experiences can help so many people. Good luck! I have found my PTSD does effect my grammar and spelling skills, so it is very hard, but a lot of venues have editors, and they help you look like a great writer. lol
