My name is Stephen Sokol.  I've always been a bit weird, and I used to let that be a limitation.  I never made friends, and I isolated myself.  But recently I've learned that the weirder you are, or the more you embrace your weirdenss, the more specific and perfect the friends you do make are.  I also learned that thinking a little differently than other people allows me to write.  As you can see from my works, this often manifests in poetry, but I've recently started my first novel.  If you're interested in reading more of my work, check out my blog at www.way-to-be.blogspot.com[link below], started by me and my siblings collaboratively!
