Have you ever looked back on your school days and realized which classes truly shaped who you are today? For me, it was always English, History, and Writing. Those subjects made me feel alive. Like I was tapping into something deeper than just grades and textbooks.
English taught me how powerful words can be. Every essay, every story we analyzed, made me fall in love with the way language could express emotion, perspective, and truth. History reminded me that every person has a story worth telling. It’s a timeline of resilience, change, and lessons learned. And writing… well, that became my therapy. My way of understanding the world and myself.
I remember staying up late journaling or working on short stories, realizing that writing wasn’t just an assignment. Iit was a calling. Looking back, those were the first sparks that led me to where I am now as an author and content creator.
If you’ve ever loved words, storytelling, or simply reflecting on life, you’ll probably connect with my latest book. It’s filled with real, raw reflections and poetic honesty . A true extension of my favorite subjects come to life.
