The power of words and images

by Aliyah (Salt Lake), age 13

There are lot of things I love to do. I enjoy drawing, reading, playing videogames and playing sports. I have quite a lot of hobbies, but I usually just choose what I feel like doing at that moment or one of the things I haven’t done in a while that I think I should catch up on.

At the moment I am making a comic, so I have been drawing a lot more so I haven’t been able to read or play games as much as I would like to. I draw all sorts of things, from realistic to cartoons. I also read non-fiction, fantasy, sci-fi, biographies, pretty much everything. I play various types of games and play various sports. All of these things kind of calm me.
