Ally

My name is Ally Knepper. I joined creative writing because I love to write and I love how it makes me feel (and because I wanted a fun class). I am in the fiction track in Creative Writing II mainly because I love creating scenarios in my mind and then transferring them onto paper. It feels good to create something out of my ideas. I write mostly realistic fiction but I'm hoping that through this class I will be able to broaden my writing style and open myself up to some new things. I like poetry as well, but I don't feel as confident in my poetry as I do in my fiction pieces. On top of writing, I really enjoy music (listening to it and making it), doing things outside, playing field hockey and spending time with my family and friends.
