Children Quote by Tony Gaskins Jr
““My gift as a child was writing. It wasn’t that I could write better than everyone else but it was that I could express myself fully on paper even when I couldn’t do it with my voice. I write from the heart, not the mind. Writing isn’t an art to me; it’s a gift of expression. It’s a release. I don’t write for praise or any awards. I write to express, not to impress.””
