Hi there; my name is Elijah Chavez. I guess this is where I write a little bit about myself. I’m originally from Southern California, more specifically, the city of La Puente. I left home at eighteen when I enlisted as an Infantryman in the U.S. Army. Since then, I have had the honor of meeting some of the best people I have ever met in my life. Writing was never something I’d ever thought of doing. Especially considering I had not graduated from high school. Nevertheless, here I am. Once I started, I found out I quite enjoyed it, and so that’s how these works came about. I sincerely hope you have enjoyed at least some of them.
