Get to Know the Author <3

Hello!

After a few posts and sharing a few pieces, I thought I'd do a quick introduction. My pen name is quill rose, I use she/her, and I'm 23. My sign is cancer (capricorn moon, scorpio rising), I'm an INFJ, and a writer! My personal identities tie into my writing. My current project is a fantasy series depicting poc and lgbtq characters. In writing, my strengths are dialogue and worldbuilding. I find the most joy in the telling of stories.

Quick favorites:

        Movie: Lego Batman

        Book: Percy Jackson (I'm counting the series)

        Music: AJR and Billy Joel

        Author: Yaa Gyasi 

        Poet: Audre Lorde

        Food: Popcorn

        Color: Purple

        Video Game: Mass Effect (Trilogy)

A few more interests I have aaare: reading, illustration, fashion, cosplaying, jewelry making, journaling, self-care, dancing, and my two cats; Ahsoka and Rex.

Continuing to write from here,

Teaching in 2020

              Second grade was hard enough

                The seconds turn into hours

                Screens turn to staff as

                Students turn their screens on and off

                Teaching students slipping out of their chairs at home

                Teaches us what we thought we already learned

                Too raw is the view into the houses of inner-city youth

                Exposed to their reality;                my past too.

                When the day is over, we rub our burning eyes

                We say it is easy when we are pioneers

                Fighting our exhaustion and creeping mental instability

                Has us fighting our love for our career.
