I started writing when I was 13 years old. I grew up in a family of readers and I found a Stephen King book in my mothers room. I started reading and became hooked. Stephen King is my inspiration, his writing has taught me a lot about suspense and horror, a field I now write in. I have written 2 novels (unpublished for now) and over 45 short stories. Writing has always been important to me because I want to entertain and scare the reader.
