As an author, I want to create characters that are relatable. When a reader finishes my pieces of work, he or she will be surprised and perhaps enlightened. If I just write the words, describing things only visually, then the rest of the senses would be lost. We have five senses, why not write about them all so that the reader feels the story with their whole body? What are the smells in the room? The sounds they hear? The textures they touch? This evokes certain thoughts, feelings and attitudes awaking in my reader. Thus, the settings and the characters of the story come alive.

As a writer, I want to create stories where people escape from the hustle and bustle of life and fall in love with characters and places. I want my audience to feel alive emotionally and tell others about their experience after experiencing my stories. I enjoy telling my stories and I get to spend time with my families. I feel like I have the best of both worlds.
