Reflections As A Writer Darron Devaun Johnson

In an age where social media defines norms, dream careers take longer to obtain, and love being complicated to find, Darron Vaun struggles to make his way. Luckily, his love of rhymes and Hip-Hop is an outlet for him to vent. From writing about heartbreaks during and after college to frustrations with his first job at Comcast his pieces have helped him maintain sanity. But as he approaches his 30th birthday, Darron becomes depressed, feeling he should be farther towards his goals by now. This "young" life crisis however inspires him to reflect on his journey in poetry form using his vulnerability to turn his dreams into reality. With much wisdom gained, and drive to push his talents, Darron wrote "Reflections as a Writer: My Roaring Twenties" discussing his trials and triumphs in the last decade. The ultimate message he hopes to send to all readers, especially millennials, is that you can overcome any situation you're in by changing your mindset from thinking where you "should" be to where you "desire" to be. He notes that everyone has a path of their own to follow so do not allow anything to alter your pace. His poems were written over a span of 11 years between 2008 and 2019. You can follow him on his You Tube channel "Vaun Vision" and social media platforms Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and LinkedIn at @darronvaun for video content, poetry, and other creative writings.
