She received her Bachelor's degree in English and Philosophy from California State University, Fullerton, and her Mastr's degree in Legal Studies from the University of Illinois, Springfield.Adrianna found a love for writing and journaling when she was eleven years old. However, when she started high school in 2006, her passion for books and poetry exploded. She could read a novel or a poem and become so involved; she would forget what characters were and which existed in real life. This was one of the first signs of her personality disorder. Halfway through her freshman year, she discovered Ellen Hopkins and her "poetry" / prose novels. She absolutely fell in love with them. She could read Hopkins' books and feel warmth. She felt as if she belonged. Because of this, Adrianna's writing now has strong influences from Hopkins' real topics, formatting, and style. Adrianna also has a love for Philosophy. Because of this, there are philosophical themes and hidden messages in the poems. She used her knowledge and education to carefully format and create poems within poems. Some of her writings can be read backward; some can be read from bottom to top, and some can even be read by certain emphasized words. Read More Read Less
