My name is kenny sztejner, I am 16, from Ontario Canada and I am quite new to writing, i’ve been writing mainly since the past summer, this past October i won “Young Poets Of Canada” so my poem is being published in their anthology, which is where i started to get enough confidence to share my poems with others, I am doing this marathon in hope to meet other poets and to share ideas, and get my thoughts more out in the open.
Wow. Since you are only 16, this is one of MANY opportunities you will have in life. Feel free to dabble in your interests and see which ones are worth the trouble of investing yourself into. I am old enough to be your grandma, and I frequently teach your age students as a substitute teacher, so I wish you well on this 12 hour adventure.
