The Writing

  • Small print used to scare me

    Scout is hilarious. She reminds me of myself. …I’m reading To Kill A Mockingbird. It’s been on my Shelfari “I plan to read” shelf for quite some time. To Kill A Mockingbird was a summer reading option for me before I entered ninth grade honors English. I, preferring adventure, chose to read The Hobbit, instead. I was one Read more
