Tombs of the Kings
In the heart of the scorching Egyptian desert, the legendary tomb of King Tutankhamun lay hidden beneath layers of shifting sands. The air was thick with anticipation as a team of archaeologists and adventurers gathered at the entrance of the tomb, their faces a mixture of excitement and trepidation. The tale of King Tut's tomb had spread like wildfire, promising untold treasures and ancient mysteries waiting to be unraveled.

Compass Flame. Runner-Up in Book Club Challenge.
Fourth grade was a weird year for me. It led to other weird years, which have made up my life up to this point. For context, I have an older brother. When he aged into middle school, we had to switch our school campus. All of the people I knew and the halls I had spent hours and hours in were switched. I left my friends, got glasses, and attended class with a new group of 20ish kids who all knew each other since they were in kindergarten.

Little Book, Big Message
Is it possible to look back and pick defining moments in our reading lives? I was nearing the end of college, probably about the time many get obsessed with new jobs and new relationships. Some are starting families and just cannot find the same amount of time to read. I think I was one or two bad books from watching more tv and reading less.

Y.A. Fiction Isn't Just For Kids
Nothing can quite describe the joy of walking through the Junior's or Young Adult section of a library when you're a kid. Moving up at last from picture books to chapter books is a heck of a milestone: for once you feel grown up, sophisticated, not like the babies sitting in a circle for story time and hand puppets. It's a feeling that can't quite be explained, and once that magic is gone it's almost impossible to recapture it.

On the Outside. Top Story - August 2023.
No, I did not live a life filled with rumbles and small-town crime and golden sunsets. Nonetheless, S.E. Hinton's "The Outsiders" is one novel that always manages to draw me back, especially when I'm reminded of my "outsider" ways myself.

THE LOST VOICE
In the clamoring city of Harmonia, voices streamed like an orchestra, winding around together the energetic embroidery of life. Yet, one morning, a frightful quiet plunged upon the city, taking away every voice. Frenzy and disarray held the roads as individuals attempted to talk, just to track down quietness consequently. Outsiders looked at one another, their eyes wide with skepticism, incapable to convey their contemplations.

List of Books That Inspired Me To Write
Growing up, if I wasn't playing outside, in school, or doing homework, you could bet you'd find me curled up somewhere, reading a big book. I don't know when I decided I wanted to write stories, all I know is one day in middle school I began to write stories of my own.
