thanks emmaree, its what i do when i am going trough hard times within myself i put it all on page and it helps, some of it can b a bit dark at times
my insomnia is a great thing sometimes especially when if in a mood to just write and not stop it helps being able 2 just write for 12hrs or more and not get tired, i draw alot of inspiration from my mental illness to, before being diagnosed with schizophrenia i didnt write and my life lacked direction but over the last 5 yrs since being diagnosed my writing has become an extention of my self and it feel like this is what i was born to do in life.
i went through writers block about 3 weeks back everytime i sat down 2 write everything just seemed forced and didnt flow and work, i decided 2 have a day off but didnt pick up any writing on my novels for about 2 weeks and when i did it was amazing at what came out

That's an interesting name you have – what's the story behind that? How on earth do you manage to write 6 novels at the same time? How do you keep track?!
It's great to have you as a member and I look forward to reading more of your posts and getting to know you better.
The meaning bout my name it means “entrance to hell” which kind of desribes being inside my head alot of times having a mental illness.
as 4 my six novels, i have so many ideas in my head i just have 2 get them down and certain things wont fit in 1 novel but goes well in another so im constantly swapping between them all not wanting 2 lose that idea.
'Martin' wrote on '18:That's great news. Did you change your routine or do anything differently or did that sleep just come out of the blue?
the sleep just came out of the blue i had done nothing different it really suprised me when it came
'Martin' wrote on '18:I really like this poem – thanks for sharing. It really gets across the frustration of insomnia and the boredom of doing nothing, waiting for sleep to come. Have you written anything else?
yeah i have about 25 or so poems but most of them r on my schizophrenia and how im feeling at certain points in my life
tattoos have been a major part of my life 4 the last decade, i started getting them when i was 19 before this great trend they become, my left arm is completely done in a japanese theme based on the old story “climbing the dragon gate”, a samuarai on my right calf commiting seppeku (ritual suicide) it represents death before dishonour for me, i have the word “Diabolik” across my knuckles its the name of my tattooist studio where i get alot of work done, my new tattoo is a month old on my right forearm needs 1 more season 2 complete it of a painting by 1 of my favourite artist lious ruyo taken from his new book dead moon its of a woman with black tears under her eyes and tribal tattoos up her arm, will post some photos soon.
