		<description><![CDATA[Roses are red, Music is cool, I&#8217;ve got ADHD, ooh look a squirrel. I grew up as a hyperactive child before any real proper diagnosis of ADD was ever done, and managed to some extent with a restricted diet free of many of the stupider E numbers. So perhaps it shouldn&#8217;t be surprising that I&#8217;ve [&#8230;]]]></description>

I admit, I am quite new to this whole social media promotion thing and am struggling to know how to get more people interested. [&#8230;]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve realised recently that I have trouble with attention; I am much more likely to hide than to allow myself to shine, in part because I fear things [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I sometimes wish I didn&#8217;t worry and think about things like &#8220;the future&#8221; so much, but such is the nature of this tangled mind of mine.  I sit, I ponder, and my mind seems determined to focus on the things that I have no control over, and determined not to accept them.

Part of me still wonders whether the idea is still little more than a pipe dream, a delusion.  I&#8217;m trying to silence those thoughts, trying not to [&#8230;]]]></description>

These are often my darkest moments, when the muse has gone quiet and I&#8217;m sitting with a notebook or an app of some sort in front of me, and the thought presents itself: “I&#8217;m not actually any good at any of this”. At these points I start to [&#8230;]]]></description>

Only the narrator is yourself, which makes realising when he&#8217;s wrong [&#8230;]]]></description>
