Andi Van den Berge

I am a young writer of literary fiction and poetry. I like to integrate my perspective, as a gay woman from the South into my writing by exploring the condition of being human. I have sought to understand the intricacies of how environment during adolescence is a crucial definer in our own individual stories, but most specifically of marginalized members of the LGBT+ community.
