Dear Editor,

As I begin to expand my boundaries as a student writer, I was very fortunate to come across Teen Ink. Teen Ink has been known to be a platform where both adults and young adults are able to publish their hidden voices. With that in mind, hope that you enjoy my works “Blossoming”, which I am submitting for consideration in your magazine. Please see my bio below.

Thank you,

Melody Kwon

BIO: Melody Kwon was brutally hit by a soccer ball when she was nine years old. With a brittle body unable to play sports with, she began to run. To this day she runs at her neighborhood park and plans on completing another marathon this June. No longer trapped in her own body, she even pole vaults for her track team. At night she makes progress in her sudoku puzzle books.
