About me
Born in California, Leora is a young writer in her twenties now based in Brisbane, Australia with her family whilst working on her career. She has most recently finished her Bachelor of Fine Arts, majoring in Creative Writing at Queensland University of Technology (QUT). Leora plans to pursue a Master's degree in Writing, Editing and Publishing at the University of Queensland (UQ) and is currently working towards her portfolio to assist in her application. She has recently had her first online and printed publications this year, by working with QUT's student run Scratch That magazine and plans to use this experience to develop her career. Additionally, Leora is in the process of developing a manuscript, helping her to work towards her first novel, Altered, a psychological thriller.
My writing
After having her writing discovered by poetry compeitions at twelve years old, Leora knew where she wanted to go with her life. With a powerful imagination and a love for storytelling, she wants to share her idea and life with the world. Having a life-long passion for writing, Leora writes in a variety of genres and styles, but predominantly writes short form fiction. However, after spending thirteen years in private school, she branched out during her undergraduate studies and found passion in writing poetry as well as creative non-fiction. She is looking forward to developing her memoir writing so she is able to tell her own story as well as the stories she writes.
