"Kristoff, my brother, insisted I have some of my education in a more typical school environment, for the social experience. It took about four weeks for him to start covering my math and science lessons... apparently teachers don't take to it well when eight year olds start correcting them. The humanities though, I was left to my own devices. Straight A's everywhere... except when it came to any creative writing assignments.

To say I was resentful of the subject was putting it mildly.

When I started college, I took writing courses for my electives just out of spite, as if to prove there wasn't anything I couldn't be perfect at; and... I ended up sort of enjoying it at some point.

Still don't know if my work is any good though."
