I write. I can write memories and fantasies'. I try hard to hold the memory of my self as a child. Remembering my dreams and my thoughts and the knowing I was deeply loved by my parents. Frankly, I (being the youngest) was well aware I was Mama's favorite. Still knowing we felt the same. I miss Mama. I sometimes feel her presence looking over my shoulder.
I have written poetry. I have a published book on Amazon, That I didn't purchase the copyright, I have no rights to the shares in sales. And Carla is always writing something. Be it a dream or merely a thought, I continue to open my mind with my thoughts and dreams. Also I feel I am an open book with poetry. Still when I write it ALL comes from within.
The lonely friendless little girl who sat in a tree in her back yard reading books and being amazed at how the paragraphs always collided in perfect Sincerity.

I am in the middle of two now and have a series of short stories but none published yet.

@Jlhzfromep Take on one at a time. Allow your characters to 'become;' to be seen, and to believe in themselves.
You soon will realize you are writing about yourself. Open yourself to the reader as you become the Character. To become a character yourself within the story that desires to be heard.
Know the dream you have within, can express itself as it brings forward your own powerful force. Listen for the sounds in the air. Describe the breeze and the scents they bring.
I create. I built a scene that houses the words that need to be felt and known because these words NEED to be told!
And even more, I feel my own aching in a similar way of the characters that are born.
