Dreamer by day, writer by night. I could go on about the intense passion I have for stories in games, books, movies, and music, but I hardly have the room here to write a novel.

My first encounter with a truly life-changing story was during the time I would spend my childhood rainy afternoons with my legs crossed and controller in hand as I dived into the world of games. It was a haven far safer than school, and far less stressful for a boy that moved around annually -- unable to make and keep any friends. The visual experiences that I could manipulate with my fingertips immersed me in a world created by someone else. I wanted to give every other kid in the world the same feeling I had when I was trapped for hours with characters I still remember to this very day.

It was a rough start. My racist teachers destroyed my work as well others that assumed I was stupid because of my background and accused me of plagiarizing a short story I did on the spot.  It wasn't until much later, after years of thinking that I was completely incapable as a writer, that I met some friends who gave me the confidence I needed to start. It was a great hobby for a while, but my parents crushed the idea and insisted I spent more time focusing on things that brought money.

November 2018 arrived. After going through rounds of depression and feeling lost in a society that waits for no one, I finally decided to dedicate myself, my soul and my entire life to creating stories. I'm well aware of the fact that I need to and can always improve. The best part of being a writer is going through the journey while creating ones of your own.
