Dallas Del Summers

I chose to be a writer when I realized it was the words of others, written upon a page, that made me go further.

I chose to be a writer because I wanted to help others the way I’ve been helped.

Through vulnerability.

I chose to write.

Every day.

Selfishly.

To help myself.

To heal.

And the irony? In healing myself, I have the potential to connect with others through my soul impressed upon the pages.

And I’m beyond content with that.”
