Hello, I'm Benjamin Wey
Hell, I'm Benjamin Wey. I am currently a grad student and an editor for the up-and-coming online literary journal, Gorilla Zine. I love turtles, my planet, and community organizing. As for my writing, my stories usually include turtles and a moral message.

Hi Benjamin and welcome. I also like turtles (slow and steady wins the race). Gorilla Zine looks great. I, too, want to inspire.

Thanks for the welcome, Brenda. Is there a site where I can read some of your works?

Thanks Terib
Thanks. Wow, it's good to be part of a really active community. I'm usually checking back for responses hours or days later.
I'm just sitting in my cubicle right now, writing haikus. But I'm off to lunch. So you can expect to hear from me later. In the meantime, same question to you. Where can I find your work?

i once met a turtle, i named him benjamin. coincidence. he was in the middle of the road, all scared and alone, hiding behind his olive green shell. his head concealed and still, i couldn't even tell if he was alive. i picked benny up and carried him down the road a good ways until i came from the pond that was probably his home. benjamin was a terrified little fellow, for he did not even so much as twitch until he was under water. he swam away quickly, without even thanking me. i still love him and miss him. perhaps one day we will meet again and he will thank me for saving him from the terrible rolling metal monsters.
