I am a teenage girl who has been writing every moment she can for the last six years, thinks word limits are the spawn of Satan and loathes being told what to do. Harry Potter shaped my entire childhood and continues to teach and inspire me. I can never thank J.K. Rowling enough for inspiring me to pick up a pen, for making me laugh, cry and never be too afraid to stand up for what I believe is right.

I am fiercely proud and incredible privileged to live in the country I do. I love the ocean, the rain and the smell of cinnamon. I believe life is a series of moments and that we should cherish every single one. My freedom is my most valued possession and I will fiercely fight to protect it. I think my generation is capable of improving the world we live in, and I believe we can make it a better place for everyone - regardless of the things that may have once divided us.

We're all human. Love is love. There's nothing wrong with you, but there's a lot wrong with the world we live in.

DFTBA
