Hello, my friends! How are we all this brisk, autumn day in November? It is National Novel Writing Month also known as NaNoWriMo, and I am trying my hand at this thing for the first time this year. It's been pretty crazy. My NaNo project is my Adlock fanfiction, The Emotional Children, and it has... Continue Reading →
Story Spotlight Post: Christopher Marlowe’s “Doctor Faustus”
My beautiful friends! How art thou? How goest thou October? I have been having a rather enjoyable time of things myself, albeit an exhausting, mind-bending, altogether insane one (what with the mess of school and all). But, in other news, I got bangs, so that made me happy: Still not sure if I'll do it... Continue Reading →
The Holy Demons of Magdalen (A Short Story)
Hullo, friends! I'm going crazy with school at the moment, trying to write a paper for my critical theory class on Monday and also trying to finish Book 10 of Paradise Lost for another class, so my time for crafting a new post has been limited. I do have a post (which is almost complete) on Christopher... Continue Reading →
Being Multi-Racial: What I’ve Learned and Why I Love It (as told in gifs)
When I say multi-racial, I mean multi-racial. Not one, not two, but three different cultures make up me. Some take up more space in my little seventeen-year-old self than others, but hey, they are all equally dear to me, and over the years, I've learned not to be ashamed of being a melting pot of...

Also known as the anonymous poet who wrote the medieval romance Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. I got an A on this assignment for my Medieval... Continue Reading →
A Theological Monologue Concerning “The Imitation Game”
A few months ago I was privileged enough to be able to see a film I've been wanting to watch for quite some time. Namely, The Imitation Game starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Keira Knightley. Let me just say that watching this movie nearly tore my heart out, and I loved it so much that I... Continue Reading →
Why I Thoroughly Enjoyed Guillermo Del Toro’s “Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark”
Stories hurt, stories heal. If we repeat them long enough, they become real. I'm not that one person who went to go see It: Chapter Two the day it came out in the theatres. I have no plans to watch Doctor Sleep when it comes out next month. You won't find every inch of my room's wall plastered with photos of... Continue Reading →
Chapter Four from a So-far Untitled “Adlock” Story
Guten abend, meine freunden! School started two weeks ago. In short, life has been YEET. *dabs* I have been loving my life as a junior on campus at Boise State University, which is where I am currently attending school. I love the school, it's professors, it's campus, and it's food. Lord, don't even get me... Continue Reading →

Good afternoon, my lovely friends! I hope summer is treating you all well. I am here to keep my promise and discuss the ins and outs of my time abroad this summer. I have been changed forever, and for the better. It was the best month of my entire life, and it was one heck... Continue Reading →
