I'm a twenty-one-year-old writer from Kingston, Jamaica, with a Bachelor of Arts in Creative Writing & English and two completed novel manuscripts under my belt. I spend much of my time outlining and polishing my manuscripts, and I've recently been developing my drawing skills to illustrate my characters. When I'm not writing, I'm either reading or watching a film or series, which I critique carefully to understand what works in its structure and storytelling. I also enjoy helping small filmmakers develop stories and scripts for short films, because any form of storytelling and world creation I can get involved in brings me joy. I hope to make this my career and, in the future, elevate others in the literary and filmmaking world.…I'm a twenty-one-year-old writer from Kingston, Jamaica, with a Bachelor of Arts in Creative Writing & English and two completed novel manuscripts under my belt.
