WHO AM I?Female. Writer. Lover of chocolate.
My name is Casey Lyons, and I am a sophomore at the University of Michigan. As a business student who didn't want to give up a liberal arts education, I pursued the Minor in Writing and an undeclared minor in environment (or so I like to call it). Growing up in Downriver, Michigan, a cluster of cities south of Detroit, I always knew I wanted to be a Wolverine. Surrounded by water, I was constantly outdoors, taking in everything my little home had to offer. I credit that, and my parents' constant promotion of adventure, to my spontaneous tendencies and inclination towards strong emotions, which is often seen in my writing. The Minor in Writing Gateway has been nothing short of an adventure. The freedom we have received to write and create content that matters has (re)sparked a love for writing that I was so scared I had lost.
So, thank you to this Minor for recreating my love for writing, and thank you to my audience, whoever you may be, for sharing my love. |
