About the Author

Rael Stephanie Rollon developed her interest in writing at the age of twelve. At first, she just loved scribbling her random thoughts in her notebooks. Until it evolved into poetry.

Rael was born in the Philippines, but her family migrated to the US when she was nine years old. Thus, her poetry was largely influenced by her
struggles to adjust to her new environment, being displaced and uprooted, losing friends and meeting new people in an entirely new
cultural background.

Her first foray into self-publishing has been a spontaneous decision inspired by her family and friends who believe in her talent.

She loves to read, sing and dabble in photography. Though on the
introvert side, this gave her more room to write down her thoughts, no matter how chaotic they are, and actually had the courage to put it out there so that it may touch other teenagers who may be experiencing the same struggles of fitting into society and coping up with all the challenges.

She lives with her family in Houston, Texas, and is currently attending
Summer Creek High School.
