I was born a poor black child... No. Not really. I'm 26 and an avid writer of poetry and fiction. Currently I am working on my first serious novel. I have been writing since I learned how to write and my writing tends to be more on the dark side of things. I am not published anywhere because for the longest time I never thought anything I did was worth anyone's time. My attitude has changed now though. As they say, 'trying is the first step towards failure.'
