Summary

Books hold a kind of power that other entertainment media simply do not. Books tease the imagination, challenge our intellect, and provide an escape when we need it most. I love books, and I love to see what people can bring to life within their writing. As a creative writing graduate and an avid reader, I am called to the publishing trade and wish to put all the work experience I have gained towards empowering writers of all backgrounds.
