I'm a child, is the first thing you should know about me. Maybe not in the sense you're thinking of, but it is the truth. My eyes are a child's eyes; wide with wonder as if every time it rains is the first time. Every lollipop I eat feels like the first one, every kiss is my first kiss. It's one of the things I like about myself. People tell me I look so sad most of the time. I might be. I have mastered the art of navigating without looking away from the pages of a book, and I write science fiction stories in my head about anything and everything.
