Yasmine Chang, Junior News Editor
Sophomore Yasmine Chang spends her time writing stories and creating new fantasy worlds, drawing on her love of reading.
Chang enjoys fantasy novels. Percy Jackson, Harry Potter, and The Mortal Instruments are a few from which Chang derives inspiration. "I can see how writers word their writing, and I can implement that into my own," Chang said.
Chang began writing fantasy stories in 6th grade after reading those written by friends. "After I read them, I was inspired to write my own," she said, but she is "not ready to publicize them" yet.
The stories are original, but Chang takes some aspects of the fantasy world from other books. She also enjoys taking humor from television because she appreciates the jokes.
Chang is excited to expand her writing in journalism.
