Names: A Letter Chain
10/7/19
Dear Friend,
I hope you don't mind if I call you that, friend, it just feels like you probably know me to well for you to be anything less than a friend.
Anyway, I'm writing today because I wrote Names about ten months ago, and well I still think it's important in some way. When I wrote Names it changed a lot of things for me, it opened a lot of doors. Names was where I found my writing style, and where a figured out why I was writing this. It's the chapter that made this what it is, because it wasn't supposed to be like this originally, but because of Names it is. So I feel like it deserves a follow up, because I owe that chapter a lot.
This letter will be for anyone who would like to also write a story of their own. This letter will be a call to paper, a you too, because this writing is my therapy, and your comments mean a lot to me. So I'm here to tell you more about myself, and in hopes we can start something new. In hopes we can start a chain of letters, where we write the world a letter, and where we offer up our own names, and ask for someone else's. Let's make this a tag of sorts, but also a get to know you. Let's tell people are names, and ask each other for theirs.
So I'll start, these are my names, feel free to ask any questions to any of them.
Eliza
Eliza is my internet and writing name. She's what you all know me by. And, well, when I go by Eliza I adopt a persona. Eliza is more professional than I am regularly, she's also more closed, but she tries really hard to be open. Eliza is a me that's very close to who I am as a whole, that's why she writes from my soul, because she is my soul.
Katherine
Katherine is a older sister. Katherine is the name of the girl I am when people need me. She's practically, she's caring, and she'll listen to anything you need to say. She'll hold you hand, let your cry on her shoulder, and she'll help you with any advice she can give. Katherine would willingly give anything to a stranger if it helped them. She's the one who reply's to the private messages that ask for advice, or that are a cry for help, because Katherine is very determined to deliver. Please write her if you need anything, she likes to fix things.
Kate
A name very close to my soul. Kate is a combo of a lot of things. She's crazy, and calm, and sweet, but also firm. She loves rules, and breaking them. In the right mood Kate would lead a army, in another she wouldn't have the nerve to talk to you. But Kate is crazy and fun, but she's really sad sometimes, and you would never know, because Kate would never let you know. Kate is my face level, she's the name that can be whatever is needed if another name doesn't exist.
Brighton
Ahhh, Brighton. I don't see Brighton very often. She takes after my mom. She's a scatterbrain which seems to be why I can never find her. Brighton is my conscience, she makes me take care of myself.
Ward
Ward is my wild inspirations, and my imagination. She's a fierce force when focused, and she wants to make things, anything. Sculptures, paintings, poems, paper, she wants to create. She takes care of all wild fits of creativity, and does them beautifully.
Katie
Katie is the child in me. Katie has been a fading name, her name has become associated with something else, but Katie is the seven year old part of me that refuses to grow up. Katie also responds to Katiebug and well as Pumpkin, and she would willingly do the monkey bars tell her hands bleed. Katie wants to cuddled, and she always comes on when I feel weak, and I need comforting.
Bea
Bea isn't really my name. But I get mistaken for Bea so much I know how to act like her. Bea is someone very important to me, and if you ask nicely enough I may tell you who she is to me. Bea is me, but more fun. Bea is also cooler, and prettier, and a party-girl, and she will let you tag along. Bea likes a challenge. Bea also can be incredibly irresponsible, but I never let her get to behind. Bea is my every wish, and my every aspiration. Love you Bea, Incase you're reading this, you're probably laughing because I included your name.
Blue
Blue is always having a existential crisis. Blue is the name of my anxiety. Blue is my sadness. Blue is my deepest thoughts and ideas. Blue thrives when I try to go to sleep. She is the reason I get some really good ideas, but I'd wish she'd let me get more sleep.
Sunny
Sunny is stubborn. She's named after a family nickname of mine, and she knows how to be the person everyone my family needs. Sunny is a fabulous cousin, and Sunny is a doting granddaughter.
Sophie
She lives in another world. She's always reading, or talking about reading, or worrying about book things. Sophie is to scared and overwhelmed for the outside world, so she reads to escape. She's a massive Fangirl, and her memory is impeccable. She gets really into things really easily, if you didn't think it was possible to Fangirl over history, or facts, Sophie will prove you wrong. Because she's smart, and wise, and she doesn't like the outside world.
Alex
Alex is always working, or working on figuring out what we'll be doing next. Alex has got her life together. She has five pages of notes, and she made flash cards for her friend because she knows they forgot to make them. Alex will answer the calls, and she'll transfer you to any name you need, because know one but me knows hers. Alex likes being organized and prepared, and she always needs to know things. If she doesn't she freaks out, and she'll can another name, and if that name doesn't know Alex doesn't know what to do. Alex is prepared, or at least we tell her that.
Beth
Beth is everyone's mom. Beth is the mom of the friend group. Beth has come over to her friends house with lunch because they were sick, and didn't want to get out of bed. Beth and Katherine are quite similar, but Beth would out big sister, and our mother Katherine. Katherine is your supportive friend, Beth already knows you needed something before you asked. Beth wants to help, please ask, she can always transfer to Katherine if you just need a friend.
Bright
Bright has a lot of questions. And she wants answers, but she also has to many questions to answer. Beth wants to figure out how this whole life thing works. When ever she gets to be the name, she wants to know the details. Because she has twelve questions and she wants to know in what order to ask them. Bright is usually a place holder before another name takes over. She is the name that figures out going on, so anther name can take over.
Sooooo those are my names, and if anyone actually read this whole thing, thank you. But now it's your turn, let's make a chain. I'm going to tag some people, and I hope they do it, and tag someone else. But you can do it even if you weren't tagged. Let's ask people for their names. Let's tell them our own.
Here are the official tag requirements:
-Tag the persons who tagged you
(If someone tagged you)
-Tag @IITheBookNookII because I want to know your names.
-Tell us as many of your names as you want, or just tell us one of them. Tell us your name story. (No real names need to be given if that makes you uncomfortable.)
-Write it as a letter.
-Tag someone to tell their own names.
-Make it you, in whatever way that is.
Let's start the chain, this is my one year anniversary chapter, and it's all really exciting. Please answer this letter, I want to meet people.
