About the Book

Influenced by Tolkien and many other notable authors, Riggs has been writing stories since age eleven. She has compiled in this book all her finished works from her first seven years of serious writing. Getting into heavy metal in her mid-teens, she began writing poetry in order to better understand herself and the world around her. Impossible love, bitterness, psychoanalysis, and attempts to understand life, the universe and everything; all these themes play parts in the poetry of a girl increasingly anxious to find peace. From tales of fantasy and friendship to the end of the world to the death of a loved one; the stories reflect the growth of a child who never quite fit in.

About the Author

A.E. Riggs was born in Santa Clara, CA in 1982. She usually resides in her own mind, but comes out now and again to bewilder people with her impulsiveness. Currently she is working on a novel, and is in all probability listening to loud music because it apparently helps.
