Lauren Cichon is a senior at a high school in Manhattan, NY. She lives in Brooklyn and joined the Girls Write Now community in her sophomore year due to her passion for writing and desire for a more supportive and empowering environment for youth like her. Lauren often finds herself staring into space and making observations about the people around her, whether on the subway or in school. She imagines and creates their stories in one of the several notebooks that she uses to jot down what she notices. She often turns these observations into short stories, doodles or poetry.
