Hi, my name is Oscar Marquardt. I’m a swimmer and an aspiring author! Ever since I was young, I’ve loved creating stories, whether it be about adventures in my neighborhood or something totally fantastical, like running on clouds. I’m hoping to start writing my first book soon. Maybe just for fun, or maybe I will try to get it officially published. I’m not sure what I’m gonna do yet, but I should mention that it is going to be a work of fiction. That genre just fascinates me, since so many things can be done. There are endless possibilities! Anyways, onto swimming. This year, I am hoping to get top 3 at the State Championships. We’ll see how I do, wish me luck! I hope you enjoy my page. Feel free to comment and share with whoever you like. Bye!
