Ana wandered downtown with a cupcake in her hand that she’d just purchased at one of the shops. There was a gentle breeze in the air and it was just the right temperature, the perfect day for being out. She had the day off work at the coffee shop and was soon heading to the park to try to get some writing done. She’d sit next to a tree, her tree that she always sat next to, with the perfect amount of sun and the perfect amount of shade, and hope that ideas would come to her. However, she was pulled out of her daze when she accidentally stepped a little close to someone and her cupcake fell onto the other’s shoe. “Oh, my god---I’m so sorry,” she began sincerely. “I must be the clumsiest person in the world,” she said by way of apologizing again.

Bio:

Ana’s mother Calliope died due to complications of Ana’s birth. Ana’s father, James, mourned his wife intensely and refused to look at the baby for the first four days after Calliope’s death. His mother came and stayed and took care of the baby. 

When he finally stepped foot into the nursery, he looked down at the baby and loved her immediately. After that, the two were very close, and continued to be up into Ana’s adult years.

Ana was born in Jersey City, New Jersey where they stayed for the first six years of Ana’s life. They moved to New York City due to a change in James’ job, which Ana was mad about for several days, though she came to like New York as well. But she’s always a Jersey girl at heart. 

They were able to move back to New Jersey a year later, where they stayed until Ana reached the age of 23. Her father was moving to California for a job, and Ana chose to follow, her and her father very close.

Ana is also close to her grandparents: her paternal grandparents Charles and Margaret, and her only living maternal grandparent Linda. 

Ana is quiet but also friendly and likes to talk to people, though she is soft-spoken. She is curious and interested in life and in people and loves to experience new things. 

She also is a freelance writer and has self published a book of short stories.
