Besa Kosova

About me:

Hello, I'm Besa Kosova. I am an Albanian born, American writer. I discovered my passion for books, poetry, and writing in elementary school. The first poem I penciled – at age six – was about peace. At age eight, I decided to become a writer. Since then, I have not stopped writing. My first poetry collection, Raindrops, was published in September 2007. When I am not writing, I enjoy helping others and collecting anything Coca-Cola. Besides that, I am also many other things: the founder of a non-profit organization, My One School Inc. (www.myoneschool.org), Director of Fundraising and Development for Child Literacy Inc. (www.childliteracy.org), Creative Writing Student at the University of Central Florida, and soon to be a bookstore owner. Nonetheless, my greatest job is raising the two most wonderful children, my brilliant son, Nathaniel, and oh-so talented daughter, Gentiana. At present, my biggest projects are: raising funds to build a school in Uttar Pradesh, India, open the bookstore in the next couple of months, as well as publish the first book of my series, Eliana’s Diary of Kosova.
