“Hello, IYJ readers! My name is Minh Thư, and in Sino-Vietnamese, “Thư” means book—a coincidence I like to believe explains my lifelong affection for reading. I enjoy discovering new perspectives in every page, and at some point, writing naturally followed as a way for me to organize my thoughts and express my inner voice.
Becoming a part of IYJ has given me the space to turn that quiet passion into something more tangible. I am truly grateful to IYJ for supporting a tenth-grade student like me in growing more confident and thoughtful on the path I am learning to pursue,” said Minh Thu.
