Hello! My name is Athena!
I write books with LGBT characters, with mostly f/f relationships as the focus of my stories. I started on Wattpad wayyyy back in like 2013?
I am the author of Kissing Olivia Winchester, which was my first work here on Wattpad! I have written two contemporaries and I'm in the process of writing fantasy.
My goal is to try and write as many YA LGBT stories as I can so that I can contribute to fostering diversity in the community within the book world. I want to teach a lesson that shows people that it's okay to be whoever they are.
Diversity is important because it allows for unrepresented minorities to be normalized and recognized. In high school, I had no clue who I was or what I should be doing and I know that so many people feel the exact same way. Then I wrote Kissing Olivia Winchester and my journey started. I knew what I was supposed to do. I want to create stories that move and inspire people but also stories that feature characters that are diverse.
Completed Works:
Kissing Olivia Winchester

Interest: I love video games quite a lot. My favorites are Kingdom hearts and the Last of us. I read a lot mostly the YA genre, but I branch out from time to time. I do like to read superhero and indie comics as well as manga.
