I tried to 'compromise' and take the route of Web Graphic Design as my college major, which was a flop due to an oversaturated and undervalued market. Nowadays, most individuals make their own websites with free services and large companies employ dozens of people with my major at cut-rate prices, so quite clearly that route was a flop too.But I came to realize over time that the main thing I had been trying to say I wanted to do, all those years ago, was to tell stories. To build worlds. To make people believe, hope, and dream again.And to that end, since I've always been a verbose person with a solid grasp of the English language, I turned my thoughts towards writing.My name is Lou Linn Haye.
