Stories, for me, provide the structure I can hang my choices on. I read Tarot, not for psychic input, but because, if the deck is vivid enough, I can create a story from the cards I pull. As I look at them, the story develops and I can understand how to structure my choices so I can move forward. I know it sounds weird, but it works for me.
I appreciated this piece as I, too, started my writing career early. As a child I would use crayons to write my stories in scribbles on whatever was handy, including the walls in the kitchen, dining room, and bathroom!

I actually use my Tarot deck similarly! They also help me look at aspects of myself/psyche or life that I might not have been otherwise. I love that.
Cool! It's nice to know I'm not the only one doing that, lol.
