Hi! I'm Gabriel Fortuin, a 21-year-old, disabled writer from Cape Town. Born with Type-2 Spinal Muscular Atrophy, I quickly found writing to be an extreme passion—an obsession, really. Thanks to this obsession, I spent years learning everything I could about the art and can safely say I love everything about it, even than "annoying" parts. While I'm most passionate about fiction writing, I consider myself a storyteller at heart, and have thorough experience in scriptwriting for online content, particularly narrative and researched-based, long-term projects. Whether it's scriptwriting, creative/fiction, editing, or proofreading, I ensure a present and dedicated collaboration with a focus on producing authenticity, entertainment, and high quality results.
