Tristen Kozinski
Keegan and Tristen Kozinski, and their two sisters, were homeschooled.

They played family boardgames at least one day a week, (playing board games with the family is still one of their favorite things to do) occasionally went to the movies, spent hours at book stores just reading, we hiked, we swam, tried camping but nobody really liked it.

Under my graduation picture in the Evander Childs High School yearbook next to "ambition," it said writer. Marriage, children, and career sidelined my true passion, but didn't squelch it.

It’s perhaps a cliché to say one person can make a huge difference in your life—except in the case of someone like Mrs. Lee, my sixth-grade homeroom and English teacher at Sagamore Hills Grammar School in Atlanta. She changed mine, profoundly, by making me the class playwright and short story writer. In my clumsy but passionate initial attempts at writing, I discovered my calling. Now that I’ve published my speculative fiction novel The Cloud (details at www.thecloudnovel.com) I hope I can find my beloved teacher.
