Hi Ada! Please tell us a
little bit about yourself.
I’m not like any twenty year old I know, in fact
I’m very different than most my age. While most people my age like to party,
and go out, I like to stay in with my laptop and write. That’s not to say I
don’t know how to have a good time, because even a writer needs a break
sometimes. I’ve got amazing friends and such a great support system, and I
don’t know where I’d be without it.
I grew up in a small town called Newfield, New
York. At the age of fourteen, I moved to Florida, which is where I met my
inspiration to become a writer. I’ve been writing since I was ten years old but
It wasn’t until I met my former English teacher, Shay Kastanis, that I decided
I had it in me to pursue it as a career. She’s supported me since the moment I
told her I wanted to be a writer and I could never ask for more than that.
I discovered my talent and love of writing at a
little shy of the age of ten. Young, right? I hear that a lot. In my opinion
though, it doesn’t matter the age, it matters of how great the story is. And
without writing, I honestly don’t know where I’d be. Writing isn’t just a hobby
for me, it’s a passion, and it’s my reason for breathing. People say we’re all
put in this world for a reason, and well writing is mine. It’s the one thing in
my life that I can always count on to make me happy. I was introduced to
writing because of events that were occurring in my life when I was a child,
and I found it to be a great outlet.
