Writing takes passion and commitment I did it for years just for the love of it. Reading voraciously (which means a WHOLE lot) helped enhance my ability to craft my own stories. I’ve since added Sonya Sones, Meg Medina, Angie Thomas, Matt de la Pena, and Kwame Alexander to this list. Sobol, Jacqueline Woodson, Phyllis Reynolds Naylor, and Christopher Paul Curtis. Taylor, Walter Dean Myers, Richard Peck, Donald J. My favorite authors growing up were Mildred D. As soon as we got home, I started writing my own copy-cat version of the play.still have that copy today! When I was about eight or nine, my mother took us to see a small-town production of the play A Raisin In The Sun. This was a transformative moment for me because I was captivated by seeing the written word come to life on stage. I have been writing since.well, since I learned how to write! I started with notes and letters to my parents, then poems and short stories.
