I am a HUGE reader any story you find I'm reading is most likely above 150k words the BIGGEST I've read was Dairies of a Madman which was OVER 2 MILLION and its STILL not done!!!
Write what you know; write what you feel. Give life to that which lacks it, and mend the heart of they who need it most. Love, laugh, and cry. Never be afraid to be yourself. This is me.
