Welcome to Lotus Editing
After spending years wrestling with the question of my future identity, even while entrenched in a long career, I found solace in writing. Despite drafting technical documentation and industry procedures, the persistent inquiry lingered. Engaging in online forums, pouring out personal narratives, poetry, and dabbling in visual arts, I still couldn't grasp my true calling.
The recurring query "what do I want to be" clouded my thoughts until I shifted the focus to "what am I now?"
The revelation struck - I am a writer. Among the various roles I fulfill as a mother, a woman, and a human, writing defines my essence. Embracing this realization, I affirm my identity as a Writer above all.
