We’re excited to introduce you to our November Author of the Month, Lhiam!

What is your favorite thing you’ve written recently? Tell us a bit about it!

One of my favorite pieces is “Balance Is Life”, because it teaches a life lesson to those who read it. It shows how important it is to take a moment in life and look at something from another point of view.

What are three words you would use to describe 826NYC?

The three words that I would use to describe 826NYC are exciting, fun, and helpful.

If someone was considering joining 826NYC, what would you tell them?

I would tell them that if they are scared it’s fine to be because by the second week they’re going to want to keep going there and will not want to stop just like me.

What advice would you give someone writing for the first time?

Think big, nothing is stopping you. Think outside the box, make the weirdest story, and nothing will stop you. Your only limit is your creativity.
