Augustine SheriffAugustine's love for words began as a way of expressing his feeling and emotions during the tumultuous years he endured in his native land of Liberia, especially in his father's household. His journals often include poetry. At the funeral for a classate who had died months after high school graduation, Augustine read his poem, The Broken Wing. The encouragement he received after that reading lit a fire inside him to continue with the written word. Until now, he has kept his writing private. After the completion of The Nature of Shadows, Augustine continues to find refuge in writing. He has plans to release his poetry, chronicle his ultimate journey back to his homeland to uncover more about his enigmatic mother, and further explore the intersection between adversity and faith.
