WRITING
I am a passionate young author who has been writing probably before she learned to do anything else. My Pre-K free time activity was writing and illustrating my own books and it's still something I do during my free time. Below is a collection of samples from my writing portfolio -- poems, short stories, novel excerpts, songs, etc. I hope to publish some of these soon!

Pause
I wrote this poem when I was walking home from school. A young couple of tourists in front of me were incredibly slow walkers. But my initial frustration eventually faded into wonder as I began to appreciate the world around me.

EXCERPT - Fire on Ice is a romance novel-in-progress. Noah, a hockey player, returns from his year abroad and unexpectedly meets Tate, an arts-lover, who returns to school after a crazy turn of events last year. What they discover in each other is electric... or is another tale as old as time?
