About Samantha

I'm Samantha Brooklyn. I'm pretty much obsessed with the musical Newsies, it's my pride & joy.(; I'll be uploading a couple new pieces soon, once I finish revising them. My favorite newsies are Mush & Race, hehe.

My Writing Style

Writing was always something that came very easily to me. I'm still improving and getting better, but I'm proud of everything I've achieved. Now public speaking.. that's a different story. ;D

I'm also great at poetry. (Don't make fun!) My favorite genres to write are drama and adventure. And, obviously, my favorite topic to write about is... NEWSIES.
