MistakenMagic

My name is Rebecca, I'm eighteen and I'm an aspiring poet. My poems 'Fallen Angel', 'Pandora', 'Starstruck' and 'Eva' have been published in ABCtales magazine and I am honoured to have been issue fourteen's featured writer! My poems 'Guardian Angel' and 'A History Student Speaks About the Holocaust' have been published in the 'Raving Dove' online literary journal, you can find it at www.ravingdove.org. In 2009 I was selected by Lemn Sissay and Selima Hill as one of the eighty-five commended poets as part of the Foyle Young Poet of the Year Award. My writing brings me so much joy and I hope it brings joy to other people :)

Right now, I have 117 stories in 4 collections on the site. My stories have been read 61239 times and 57 of my stories have been cherry picked
