Interview with a fellow writer.

By Heaven B. from Academy of the Redwoods in California

”I was weirded out by it, considering it is fall and it’s supposed to be getting colder and I just really want it to be winter. And so fall is kind of-- my favorite season’s winter and then fall is my second favorite cause that’s just right before winter. And apparently it’s called Indian summer, whenever fall gets really hot, and now it’s not just hot, it’s also gotten cold and rainy and windy and sunny, so, I dunno what’s causing that, if it’s climate change or something like that it's just.. Something weird in the weather and it’s.. Definitely strange.”

“I can’t really think of an exact moment where I’m very proud.. But I am always very proud of whenever I’m done with a story all the time, or a poem, or riddle or whatever it is that I’ve written. Or maybe after… yeah, really just after I’ve finished some kind of writing that I’m proud of. That’s usually the thing that I think of most.”
