Monique Gliozzi asked Sandy Benitez:

Hi Sandy. I love your blog site. Can you tell me how you started writing? Is it easy for you to write poetry?

Sandy Benitez Thanks for the compliment Monique! I started writing poems in my teen years after reading some poetry books in my school library. I thought to myself, I can do that and create my own little stories. For me, it's never easy to write a poem, no matter how simple the poem may seem. It takes imagination, recollection of moments from the past, tempered use of metaphor and simile sometimes, and just having this inner desire to create and to hope that others will enjoy what you've written too.
