It is not of superficiality that I flaunt my most prized possession, my soul -- Dew Platt
THE FORMAL
Dew Platt believes a little bit of persistence, a whole lot of self-content, a constant relation with the real and the unreal, discontent with stagnation, makes a pretty decent writer. Her contentment she also believes is in transition. Educated in Writing & Philosophy, she lives in New York and is the author of The Borrowed Wind (drama/mystery), Legacy: the Becoming(YA Fantasy/Mystery), The Adventures of Silli Page: the Case of Benjamin Laire (YA SF/F/Mystery), The Polar Pact (Romantic Suspense), Illicit Escapes (Romantic Suspense), Imprint (Poetry Collection), Failure & Solitude (Nonfiction to be released).
Interests Writing, reading, movies, reflection (more like an essential chore), good conversations with cool people. Will like to do a lot of traveling someday,of course with my notebook with me. What am I to do without it? I will like to touch the nose of a Zebra (I intend to try) in South Africa, and walk the high roads of Peru, pen and paper in hand. Craziest interest is to own a small bookstore. Doesn't it follow from being a writer? hmm. There is something about a pile of books that is---well... fill in what you may... the length of the blank varies from person to person.

- My beliefs become me
- Claim the certainties but don’t dwell on them. Make the uncertainties yours.
- Break through and beyond every imposed expectation, redeem every degenerative illusion
- My mind is my home. One person’s vulnerability is another’s extension of power. Never subject myself to psychological victimization
- There is no essence to the writer’s mind without the fundamental psychological identity and solitude. I crave companionship but love solitude.
