Never thought I would get paid to write

Since an early age I have wanted to write. I have always loved books and getting lost in them and I wanted to give that experience to people who read my writing. To feel the characters pain and happiness but I never thought I would ever actually make any money from writing. I started blog after blog and they fell to the way side because I kept trying to do a blog for each hobby. Finally after they sat stagnant with no new content I decided to create one blog and combine them all together and thats how Life of a Mad Typer was born (after a few name changes that is.) When I first started I just wanted a place to flex my brain and keep in practice of writing. After being out of school for so long I felt like my writing was flowing from me and I was losing it. That is why I started to blog and I never thought I would get paid to write in the form of cash or products. It's been almost 2 years now since this blog itself has been going and I would like to think my parents would be proud of what I have built from the ground up. The blogging community is amazing and has blown me away with the kindness they have shown me.
