Piper Soares

I’m a fourth-year student. I grew up in Bar Harbor. I spend a lot of my time journaling, reading, and writing personal, creative nonfiction stories, and poetry. I also love hiking, swimming, climbing, and basically anything outdoors. I’ve taken memoir classes with Martha Donovan and creative writing with Dan Mahoney. Before I transferred to COA I took classes in creative nonfiction, language and literature, linguistics, and poetry. I absolutely love helping with structure and flow and especially helping to make sure that personal voice and creativity are shining through in writing. I’m a big believer that all writing has the ability to be fun and true to one’s voice, even in an academic setting.
