Hi, I'm SL, the author. As an avid reader, I often find myself frustrated when characters make choices I wouldn't have made. One day, while lying in bed and indulging in my daily ritual of maladaptive daydreaming, a thought struck me: what if I wrote a story? As the author, I would have full control over my characters' destinies.

I've always been told my imagination shines through, especially in my school essays. So, I present to you 'From Roots to Our Wings', a story about deep-rooted problems and the challenges that help the characters spread their wings.

Please note that English isn't my first language, so there may be some grammar mistakes along the way. I appreciate your understanding as I embark on this journey, and I can't wait to see where it takes me!
