I'm not a writer, and nor do I pretend to be. In fact, I'm a maths student so the phrase 'It's all Greek to me' is actually quite true when it comes to letters. Stringing them together to form actual sentences is hard enough, let alone them actually having to make sense to anyone other than myself.
However, I've just read Carrie Hope Fletcher's book. If you haven't read it yet, I would thoroughly recommend it to you; you can buy it here from Waterstones! Her words and advice ring so true to my ears and it's advice that I wish I'd have read 10 years ago before tackling my years as a teenager.
But she's inspired me to get writing myself. As I'm about to complete my undergraduate mathematics degree, I thought I'd try and write some measly advice for some of the lucky students who are about begin their big university journeys - moving away from home for the first time, having to learn to cook, clean and fend for themselves. It can be an incredibly difficult time in your life, but it's also one of the most amazing. Moving away to university was one of the best decisions I've ever made, and it's so important to make the most of every opportunity. Therefore, this is going to try and help new first years on their brand new adventures...
Lots of love,
