Amber Hurdle

"I spent my life folded between the pages of books. In the absence of human relationships I formed bonds with paper characters. I lived love and loss through stories threaded in history; I experienced adolescence by association.

I am a being comprised of letters, a character created by sentences, a figment of imagination formed through fiction."
