WELCOME TO FLYING SOLO

Hi, I'm Ezerikhi, and I am an aspiring, freelance writer, and Flying Solo is basically a platform on which I share my thoughts, words, essays, and hopefully express myself openly enough to be understood. I'm hoping that this blog will help me build some confidence in my craft, but really, it's just an online journal and storage for memories. Anyways, enjoy my work and share please:)
