Carrie Fisher on her writing

"I always wrote. I wrote from when I was twelve. That was therapeutic for me in those days. I wrote things to get them out of feeling them, and onto paper. So writing in a way saved me, kept me company. I did the traditional thing with falling in love with words, reading books, and underlining lines I liked and words I didn’t know." 

 Carrie Fisher

I agree with her; this is my story as well from the end of my senior year of high school.
