Stephanie Kohler has been writing since she was 9 years old. It all began with an appreciation for music, writing and singing little ditties in the privacy of her closet. Since then, she's progressed to poetry, children's fiction, and creative nonfiction. She writes often of the memories from her childhood, time spent exploring the New Jersey wilderness, and the brief, fleeting nature of human relationships, inspiration, and life. A recent graduate from Rowan University with BAs in English and Writing Arts, Stephanie is still figuring out what her future holds. She goes by Naomi Barde, a pseudonym invented to assist her in living her imaginings --- all is but a dream, but what you perceive, no matter how mythical, can be made real.
