Welcome!

For the longest time I've had it in the back of my mind that I am, indeed, a "writer." Not sure when or how I decided that I qualified as such, given I so rarely actually write anything more substantial than a tweet or instagram caption (and even the latter I now simply add a dictionary definition of a word I deem relevant). Nonetheless - I am an artistic person deep down, I know this, yet I have no real creative medium beyond writing. When I have time to ponder my words, think about what I want to say, and how I want to express myself, I think I usually wind up doing an adequate job. Well, more so than being asked to speak on the spot. 

I intend to use this blog somewhat as a diary and, yes, in keeping with the name of this blog, I want to use this to drive me to a place where I have "reinvented" myself. I definitely think in life I try and push the boundaries on who I am, and what I can do in life, but lately have maybe fell a little stagnant. Perhaps that's a bit melodramatic given I've recently spent months living in Vietnam, followed by the commencement of a year's study in Taipei, Taiwan. Nonetheless I have wound up with a lot of spare time and I want to fill it by doing something creative - and that creativity is going to be WRITING. I don't know what, but I will figure it out! I want to try and write something here as often as I can, ideally every day but I know that's not particularly realistic. Let's go with "most days."

I guess a dream of mine would be one day to write professionally on a range of topics that interest me  - film, pop music, fitness, wellbeing, the environment, LGBT+ issues, equality, love etc. Who knows how or when, but let's give this a go. Hope you're along for the ride!
