Meet The Author
Hi everyone, My name is Rayne Stewart and I am the creative force behind Perfectly Different! Born and raised in Baltimore Maryland, I debuted my writing career at the age of 14. Now, at 19 years old I am blessed to say I'm a sophomore student studying elementary education at Spelman College!
My Story
From as early as I can remember, I have always wanted to help others and create change within the world. I would go to events with my family to serve and give to the less fortunate which was always extremely fulfilling. However it was not until I was tasked with my own trials and hardships that I could help others and positively impact individuals’ lives through telling my story. I was diagnosed with Vitiligo around age 8, at the time I was under an immense amount of stress dealing with death in the family among other things. As time went on and my appearance changed, I started struggling with my self-confidence and self-esteem. I fought with the thoughts of being different, weird, and not pretty enough so much that I wanted to completely hide who I was. Despite the many obstacles, with God, my family, and friends I learned how to embrace my differences and to love myself completely for who I was regardless of what others may say or think. I learned that I am Perfectly Different, and I hope that any child who is struggling with their differences like I was can take my story and say that they are Perfectly different too!
What's Next
I have dreams of expanding Perfectly Different much further than my current book. I would like to add a host of things such as additional books, book readings, youth events, and the list could go on and on. My focus is with children, from ages 5-18 I want to encourage, inspire, motivate, and push them to be the best versions of themselves and to go out and leave their mark on the world. Heavy emphasis on LOVE, the more we pour into and build up our young children the better off we will be. Please stay tuned for more to come!
