About this ebook
Seeking Sophia is a small collection of poems that I have written that deals with spirituality and the state of our reality.
Adam R. Shipley
I am a young aspiring writer. I love reading, playing video games and studying history, philosophy and religion. Also some say that I am a wizard, I can neither confirm nor deny this.
