Reading & Creative Writing
I've loved stories for as long as I can remember - reading them and writing my own. The stories I write tend to be about crime, school life and families. I like plots that feel real, even when they're not. I work with a creative writing tutor, and writing is one of those things I find I can lose myself in completely. When it comes to reading, I like books with characters who are a bit different. I love the Amelia Fang series, Dork Diaries and Dog Man - but I also really enjoy reading about women who changed the world. Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls is one of my favourites, and Frida Kahlo is someone I find genuinely fascinating. I dressed up as her for World Book Day, which was one of my favourite days of the year. I think stories - whether you're reading them or writing them - are one of the best ways to understand people.
