for young adults & anyone looking for a glimpse of hope . . .

I’m Anaiah J. Young, entangler of letters & Crafter of stories. Welcome!

We all have a stories. Stories we tell each other, stories we tell ourselves, stories we hear, read, and live that shape us into the people we are. I love these stories—those of real people and the ones found in thrilling tales of fiction! But there’s one great story that unites, clarifies, and brings together all these little narratives of our human existence, and it is the greatest true story ever told, the story of the gospel. Every word written reflects the narrative of what you choose to build your life upon, and it is my hope that the words I write might help you find the words to understand your own story a little better.

So you’ve stumbled upon my corner of the internet . . . what to expect? I’m a writer, editor, and creative who is endlessly fascinated by people, books, beauty, and words—looking at life and its adventures through a lens of the hope. I work with poetry, devotionals, and fiction and occasionally set my pen to additional pieces and poems about the introspective, the emotional, the beautiful, and the questions life leaves us all facing. May you enjoy your reading of the ramblings and patchwork pieces found here and be ever inspired to seek deeper life and joy in Jesus!
