About Me
I only write to practice my English and have no intention of ever publishing my work. At least not with a price tag. I owe most of my abilities to my 2nd grade English teacher Miss Anastasia and my 6th grade teacher Mister Yasin. Miss Anastasia's passion for teaching led me to fluency in English. Mister Yasin was one of my only teachers that pushed me to make creative works. If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't be writing at all. I am grateful to both and I hope to make them proud with my work.
