Bio

"I want to write so well that a person is 30 or 40 pages in a book of mine ... before she realizes she's reading." - Maya Angelou

My name is NotDeadYet16 because when I was 16, I wanted to die, but I had enough will to spite the world and keep going. My motto is remember who you are and never change unless you need to because life is too short to please those who don't matter. Someday, I want to write an original book, but until then, I love writing about characters and worlds already imagined by others. Updates are slow because bipolar depression is a mental illness that does not stop, even if you're on medication.

"If there's a book that you want to read, but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it." - Toni Morrison
