Fortier, Benjamin

Benjamin is a self-taught writer with several years of independent experience. After he was bestowed with the honor of Class Poet from his graduating High School class, Ben moved on to the Marine Corps where he saw combat in Fallujah, Iraq. He draws heavily from this experience, and puts it into writing as a form of self medication. He believes that people can learn and grow from his trials, which motivates him to write for the public.
