Author has written 8 stories for Newsies, and Giver.

"Writing is a religious act; it is an ordering, a reforming, a relearning and reloving of people and the world as they are and as they might be." -Sylvia Plath

Here's the thing - no one I'm friends with knows I write, like at all. I'm not sure why, but I don't ever want them to find out. Maybe because I'm afraid they'll want to read my stuff or judge me, but you guys (my readers, that is) are the only people I trust to see this stuff. So basically, everytime you read a story of mine, it's like I'm telling you a secret. I'm not sure why I'm telling you this. It just seems important to me. (But then again so does the consistency of my yogurt...)
