When Fiona is not writing or reading The Book Thief, she's thinking. She thinks about a lot. In twenty years, she plans on becoming either a famous writer or a professional violinist. She lives in Croton-on-Hudson with her family.
“i think i’ll come back
as my opposite
i’ve already lived once,
my memory was just erased.”
do you know what scares me sometimes?
what will happen when I die.
I nearly died once,
when I was told I was moving (again).
away from the place I loved the most.
I think I’ll come back
as my opposite
I’ve already lived once,
my memory was just erased.
my opposite will be
a brown-skinned
lamb-haired
boy
who wears baggy basketball shorts down to his knees
and red t-shirts.
he will love basketball.
he will be christian
he will have a russian accent.
he will have trouble reading
he will have many friends and be handsome (although that’s not an opposite, just something i want).
most of all, though,
he will hate to write.
