Zara Hoffman
A graduate student in the NYU Masters in Publishing Program and has been writing since she was eight years old. She spends most of her time doing homework and writing new stories because if she didn't, her head would likely explode. Her books are for young adults or the young at heart. After all, growing up is overrated.
Her YouTube and Twitch have productivity sprints once a week per platform and her videos are vlogs, about writing, mental health, and musical theater.
