Writers.

If writers were flowers, I would be a Titan Arum.


The Titan Arum is a flower that requires between seven and ten years of vegetative growth before finally blooming into a beautiful and vibrant flower.


When it comes to writing, I cannot say it is an activity I enjoy. And therefore, I am a procrastinator. Just as the Titan Arum takes its sweet time to flower, as does my writing.


I will wait days and hours before completing an assignment. Clearly, this is not something I feel the need to keep very secretive, because, I have found, this works for me. Although, this method is frightening for most, this is the way I flourish. I find myself extremely pleased with most of my writings and confident in my abilities to complete them.


By the way, you may be about to google this intriguing flower, and while I can tell you it shares the characteristic of procrastination with me, I have no comment on the description of the flower’s odor, “which is reminiscent of the smell of a decomposing mammal”.
