<p>One day I dream of becoming an author. I have entire worlds developed in my mind and have so many different stories and ideas that I wish I could craft on paper. They all make sense within the recesses of my brain, however, when I attempt to put them into words I cannot articulate them the way I know them to exist within my heart—as real and authentic characters and places that live within me. I have one character I am particularly fond of, Silvia Torrenegra, and I know her better than I know myself. Consequently, writing represents an escape for me—an escape to reality, in which I can experience everything in the world even if I have never experienced it in the flesh. </p>
