African american teenage poet

Almney King was born in St. Peters Missouri. Her hobbies include theater, photography, and writing novels as well as poetry. Since the age of thirteen, she has kept busy writing everything from prose to poetry. At age sixteen Almney made her debut as a professional writer with the release of her poetry book, “The Valley of Anchor.” She wrote each poem in a fashion that is both understandable and relatable to a wide variety of audiences. Each poem also has its own theme, but together they convey a fusion of hope, optimism, reality, and a bit of imagination.

In addition to this, Almney hopes to strike inspiration in the hearts of those who read her work. It is her dream for that inspiration to bring about many actions that will bring forth an opportunistic future. She continues to write poetry for future books. She also continues to work hard on her first novel, which will be a science fiction adventure trilogy. Hold on to your seats!!! She hopes the first book of the trilogy will be ready to publish by the end of summer 2013. In the meantime, Almney will be back on the circuit doing Open Mic Poetry throughout St. Louis City and abroad. She has been working real hard in school and is looking forward to graduation in May. She hopes to attend the USC Cinematic Program,  and major in Screen Writing & Film Directing
