This is the Online Literacy Biography of me, Keyur Parikh.  It serves to provide a clearer understanding of literary development as it occurred throughout my life.  It is written in a first person narrative to allow you, the reader, to really hear my voice and to feel as though you can find a personal connection. 

As you can see, this biography is organized into several stages by chronological time periods.  First, I will begin by talking about Birth.  After a short section about that, we will enter the Toddler Years, where much of my crucial literary development occurred.  This was then followed by the Elementary years in which a major change in my life strongly affected my literary development.  Next were the awkward years.  Most of the time, puberty and literacy are not usually two words that come hand in hand; however, during this time period, puberty had a major impact on my literary development.  Following the awkward years are the high school years.  This was a time period in which my writing truly grew and matured through the influence of many people.  Finally, we will reach the college years, i.e. the present.  At this point, I will talk about how college and my choice of major has affected my writing.

But first let's start with the basics right now and cover some of my own
