Leah's Author Blog

Time to consider my final fears: success and hate. You'll soon see why they belong together in this post.

My final project in a creative writing class was an essay on my writer's aesthetic. Here it is. Consider it my writer's manifesto.

So I decided to start a blog. But what kind?

I have a blog now. And that's terrifying. But it's time.
