How long have you been writing poetry?: I began writing poetry in grade school-about fifth grade, I believe. It became a serious interest when I was about thirteen. The first poem I wrote that I really liked was in seventh grade, in study hall, room 115.

What/Who inspires you to write?: Almost everything. The night, dreams, stars, people, emotions, music...one of the last poems I wrote came to me while I was inthe bathtub listening the ticking of the clock.
