Jared, is native of Corpus Christi, Texas, and currently a junior at Texas Virtual Academy. His interest in poetry was sparked after taking a creative writing class. Jared found that much of the writing
was based on being able to connect emotionally with the words of other writers, as well as finding words too express his own feelings. Being a seventeen year old young man, he at first found that too be difficult. Jared spent many hours and awkward moments trying to put his feelings down on paper. He found a connection too poetry and now is inspired to help other young man find their own inner self.
