ABOUT THE AUTHOR
The name is Ayleth Benitez. I am a simple person overall, I grew u with two siblings so new concepts and shenanigans were always occurring. For the longest, I watched my older siblings grow wiser and wiser. They are amazing role models and they inspire me and my younger siblings very much. I started writing because of my sister, the oldest she taught me how to imagine the craziest things. She really encouraged and boosted my creativeness. I've never been the biggest fan of other subjects or school in general but I have big hopes and dreams. In my free time, I love listening to music, painting, and taking naps. I'm not the biggest fan of sports since I'm not the athletic type, but they are fun to watch. I enjoy dancing, hanging out with my friends, and going on adventures with my favorite person. I have three older siblings and two younger, 2 females and 4 males in total, I also have a pet hamster along with two dogs so I have a pretty big family. My plans for the future are to attend Northridge and enroll in a dental school program. Once I'm done there, I'm working my way up to the house on the hill with the big backyard and pool away from everyone. -3-
I have been going to school for 11 years. Throughout my many years as a student, I never had a teacher who created assignments and projects that were both complex and Fun. My fourth-period teacher assigned us this project at the beginning of the semester. Our task was to fill out sections of grammar work that would eventually build a book of writing. A book with the purpose of informing readers and writers of the templates and formats for proper grammar. MINIMUM. I was initially supposed to write about women serial killers but I didn't find it as interesting and intriguing as I hoped. I ended up writing about the most random things ever, from little kids to rats and shows. I then started watching movies and reading random facts. After forgetting to write based on my serial killer theme, I decided that I would change my theme to the everything book of writing. I decided that I could write about just anything and research fun facts. I completed grammar work and research and have created the perfect layout and examples to follow when writing. I provided knowledge and examples while having fun and learning new facts. -4-
