My love for writing has always been an integral part of my life. I’ve been writing every since I was a kid, three line poems scribbled on my notebooks changed to five page short stories on giants and Wizard of Oz inspired journeys. And before I knew it, stories on giants evolved into a 300 page novel. Writing isn’t just escapism. It’s the perfect form of art that can properly express how you view the world and describe it to others. All I want is that a reader can not only understand my world, but feel that they have a place in it- to exist, and most importantly, to be understood.
