Dreams can become reality. I’d always enjoyed books, the adventures they took me on, and the thoughts and ideas that were born and fed by these underpinnings in my imagination. I wanted to write since I was very young. I wrote stories and poems and journal-type accounts of what was happening around me, inside me. I was given the opportunity to participate in a chapter book, and it changed me when I completed it. Once I felt the book in my hand, I became encouraged and challenged myself to keep going - allowing myself the pursuit of a dream and, with the encouragement of Kyra and Todd, I continue the journey down that path. Thank you!
