Maia Ritchie

"My life is no simple nightmare." I'm not you average teenage girl. (Well, not in some aspects.) I love to learn about foreign countries -- Japan is my favorite. I don't get out very much, but I do love to go to the library. I read books like they're going out of style, and I write with an unrestrained fervor. As a result of being bullied since second grade, I have a hard time socializing and making friends. My dream is to become a novelist and human rights activist.
