AUTUMN // AUTUMN’S READINGS & WRITINGS
About: Autumn Raelin is an aspiring creative & Jesus lover who has
too many passions to be defined by one title. When not typing
words furiously into her novel, she might be outside with her camera
around her neck, trying to capture the beauty in the world around
her.
2017: “Something I found out is that in life, very little counts & it’s a
crazy hard path unless you know who you are at your core & what
you truly stand for. For me, I've found my identity in Jesus Christ.
And 2017 taught me that regardless of the ups and downs life brings,
staying rooted in what I know is right and who I know I am is the
only way to stay safe and happy in this life. “
Charis Rae // CHARIS RAE

graphic design. Her passion for words began when she could talk,
and has ever since surrounded herself with books and literature.
Charis is also a passionate artist, dancer, daughter of the King,
and lover of life.
2017: “I started self-hosting, switched to using my real name as a
blogger, joined a writing workshop and have really grown as a
blogger, writer, and overall person. 2017 has been good to me
and I can't wait to see what 2018 has in store.”
Clara Ryder // THE ZEPHYR
About: Clara is a seventeen-year-old with a hunger for
adventure, a love for books, and a desire to live her life to the
fullest. She’s just an average girl who loves to write, watch old
movies, drink tea, day-dream of living in England, watch Downton
Abbey, eat Chinese food, fan girl over Collabro and take walks.
2017: “don't accept something as truth / just because its coming
from someone you respect. / we are all still growing. / we are all
still just learning to breathe, / to care, / to see, / to forgive, / to
live, / to love. we are all still learning about what it means to be
human. / and each of us have to discover what that means to us, /
in our own time.” -- c.r ryder
