: About Me

Yes, I am Alicia. I have written ever since I could remember. I found this site by acciendent, I must admit. I was looking for a site where I could write my stories. You have seen dozens of these kinds of sites. None of them seemed to have done any justice. Helium was different. It was exactly what Iwanted. I fell in love with it and now here I am.

My best moment ...

Having one of my poems win a contest. Who could feel better than having their written work published?

My inspiration ...

There's about a dozen. It starts with my father who may be stubbern, but he has goals and always succeeds.
