Running on Faith (eric Clapton Biography)

When comparing my free write with the writing diagnostic prompt, it gave me a chance to reminisce on how I became a scribe. To know how to write, one also needs to know how to read. My reading abilities, like most of my peers started in pre-school learning the ABC's. After learning the basic's it was in infinite sprint to soak up the knowledge of the world.
