I started writing at 15 years old because of my classmate; she inspired me to become a writer myself. I have been an aspiring writer since 2019 and am still learning. I write to express the ideas I have within me and invite others to witness what I have in mind. Writing brings me joy and gives me something to look forward to-something created by me. It allows me to explore the world of ideals. All the characters and stories I create deeply resonate with me; they are born from my imagination, feelings, and 'what ifs.' They have been the greatest contributors to my growth as a writer and have taught me valuable lessons in life.
