Hi Kaylen,

If you create your art or writing just for the fun of it, then you cannot be classed as a failure.  It’s just fun.  You may have failed at completing the task but that doesn’t make you, the person, a failure.  Did you ever get to learn the piano?  If not, perhaps you could start there.  You don’t need to justify why you want to learn the piano or why you enjoy art.  That is just the way you are.  It is all part of your uniqueness.  Accepting that you can chose your own hobbies and that you don’t need your parents’ permission is all part of the growing process.  Pick up one of those stories, re-read it as far as you have got, then just write anything down that comes into your head.  It doesn’t matter if it’s nonsensical – just let the words flow.

Best wishes

Peggy
