A little boy with a pen

Hello! My name is Kavin Imaya Kumar. (Imaya is NOT my middle name. It’s part of my last name) I was born in Hyderabad, India, and immigrated to the U.S when I was 2. I was born in 2011, and I love to study about WWII. I have just started blogging and I’m pretty new to it. I do Fencing and I love reading books. I live with a family of 4. My dad, my mom and my (slightly annoying) little sister. My favorite subject is reading. Please follow my sister's blog at https://kayalworld.com/

Very nice take away Kavin. That is a perfect mindset for success. “When you got nothing to lose, you are stronger”. Way to go, write more.
