"Literacy History"
I wrote this essay for a high school English class. The prompt for the essay was to write about your literacy history, and I chose to write about a moment from first grade that was revolutionary for me in a tragic sort of way.
"Personal Essay"
I wrote this essay for a high school English class - the prompt was just to write a personal essay, and I wrote about the experiences I had had with death at that point in my life. This essay was also published in my high school's literary magazine, The Inkwell, after my teacher encouraged me to submit it.
"Stalker!"
I wrote this essay for a creative writing course I took the summer between my sophomore and junior years of high school. This essay is about my experience with a neighbor, whom my nine-year-old self deemed 'my stalker'.
"Solo Project Drafting"
This is actaully a collection of personal essays that have been reworked for my one of my final projects in high school theatre. I went to an International Baccalaureate school, and for IB theatre, I had to create a Solo Project - for mine, I reworked old essays to create a piece that reflected on growing up and moving forward.
