Samantha Villafane is currently a rising senior, NEHS Board member, and atala editor at Pembroke Pines Charter High School. She has been drawing and painting since her freshman year and is currently taking AP Drawing. Although her favorite medium is acrylic paint, Rotten was created using watercolor and ink.
the atala is designed, curated, & edited by the Pines Charter Chapter of the National English Honor Society. It showcases original student poetry, fiction, creative nonfiction, literary criticism, and art. Like its namesake — the small, bright butterfly that grew from near extinction to rising numbers in our part of the world — this little literary journal aims to grow our love of writing and expand our community’s appreciation for the literary arts.
