Hello! My name is Maggie Howell; I’m 16 years old and a junior. I was born in Fort Benning, Georgia. My dad is in the army, so as a kid, I moved around a lot. I have lived in Missouri, Maryland, Georgia and Wiesbaden, Germany before moving to Michigan in seventh grade. I’m currently a staff writer and through this, I hope to improve my writing skills. Alright then, now for the fun part. I am a huge nerd. I’m in band; I like drawing and anime; Harry Potter is my favorite book series; I have an addiction to Pinterest. In band, I play the Euphonium. You don’t even know what that is, do you? Take a tuba, shrink it a bit and then make it sound like a trombone. Boom, Euphonium! Thank you for reading! Bye!
