2. Writing
I have been writing since I was
11 and it has just always been
something that I do even more
so than reading which is a little
odd. There was a small stint in
middle school where I hardly
read at all but I wrote
constantly.
3. Traveling
I have been very fortunate to
be able to travel a lot as I was
growing up. I love languages
and speaking with different
kinds of people so it is
something very much a part of
who I am. I speak Spanish
fluently and am learning
Japanese. This fall I am going to
study abroad in Nagasaki,
Japan.
4. Tolkien
My mom read me The Hobbit
when I was 3 and then the trilogy
when I was 8 so Tolkien has always
been a favorite author of mine and
reminds me of my childhood as
well
5. Rose Christo
Rose Christo is another one of my favorite authors. I read her Gives Light series
last summer and another book of hers called Unborn.
