In the past, I've written mainly poetry and short stories. These were mainly for fun or sometimes class assignments.
I have one poem published in a poetry anthology called "The Colors of Thought". My poem was titled "Seasons".
Some time ago, I got bored re-reading books that I own. I wanted to read something new. So, I started writing some fan fiction. Eventually, I removed all of the characters that were not mine. I had found that I had created so many new characters and new situations that the story had become its own original work. I still work on it. Someday, when it's long enough I would like to show it to a publisher.
In July, 2006, I received an award from The International Society of Poets for Outstanding Achievement in Poetry. I received it for my poem called "How Dark Is The Night?" It is currently on www.poetry.com. |
