Just a little story about when I went to a writer's course as a teenager and how it shaped my rebellious ideas of heroines. XD

I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia in 2009. I was 19. I had dreams, hopes - honestly, I still have them, much hasn't really changed in the past 16 years in regards to my dreams of having a family of my own, but, I have grown stronger, and come to accept and love myself and that journey I would not change. Chronic pain can be crippling....

They looked at each other, mother, and daughter. The mother’s eyes filled with pain, in the young woman’s eyes regret, hope and joy...

Fibromyalgia is very deceptive. Sometimes I feel great - that I could take on the world, that I'm finally recovered....
