Samantha Stuefer
My name is Samantha Stuefer. I am currently 17 years old. I was born here in Lincoln, Nebraska on May 3rd, 1998. I live with my biological parents and little brother. I am a happy mother of 2 rats, Luna and Sunny, and 2 cats, Leo and Topaz.
I have been writing my whole life. When I was in elementary school I was constantly coming up with songs and stories and I wrote little “books” to help teach my brother words and how to read, so it’s no surprise to me or anyone I know that being in Newspaper is one of my favorite things in the world. I love being able to write about things that are important to me and be able to spread the news around so everyone can be informed. I usually cover heavier topics because I love the controversy and I feel like a lot of them aren’t talked about them enough. Plus, covering heavier topics usually need me to dig really deep into them and do a lot of research, which is really interesting and fun to me.
I also really love music. I have been singing for a very long time. From about the age of 11-16, I was in multiple bands through a great program called Academy of Rock. The first one I was in was Emergency Entrance, then Political Asylum and lastly First World Problems. Though I do not play in bands anymore, I still sing. I take voice lessons every Tuesday. I also participate in Concert Choir.

-
A Day to Remember
