Most of us have seen at least one of the adaptations of Roald Dahl's classic children's book, Charlie and the Choclate Factory, a tale of a young boy who finds a golden ticket and is allowed to see the inside of the choclate factory run by the eccentric Willy Wonka. Whether you've seen the 1970's... Continue Reading →
Art Gallery: Viking Girl in Chalk
For this year's required art class, I choose to start working in graphite and charcoals, something had had little to no good experience with. However, after a semester of this and some YouTube videos teaching me how to blend, I've finally become pretty good at working with those mediums. Curious to see what else I... Continue Reading →
Blog: How to Never Write a Fight Scene: Rings of Power Snow Troll Scene.
I pick on Rings of Power a (perhaps) unfair amount on this blog. I mean, I’ve written numerous articles meticulously picking it apart as compared to the books, making fun of the showrunners and writers, and in general beating it a ton to make sure it’s extra dead. But today, I’m back to break down... Continue Reading →
Blog: How to Write a Fight Scene
Let’s be honest, fight scenes are one of those things that can either make or break the believability of a story. If they’re really good, they have the audience rooting for the hero and fearing for their lives, or perhaps feeling as cocky as the hero that he’ll win because he’s the hero. On the...

Blog/News: My Reaction to the Rumors About Rings of Power Season 2. My Brain is Now Mush.
As you guys know, I hate Rings of Power to the ends of the Earth and it infuriates me to no end how little respect Amazon has for the Tolkien fandom's beloved professor and the stories he spent his life on.

Blog: Thoughts on Female Warriors and Rulers in the Fantasy Genre
As I've been doing this blog and quickly writing my own books, I've been paying attention to how other people portray their characters in media. In particular, I've been paying attention to how authors and writers portray their female characters in media, which more often than not nowadays is not in a very postive light.... Continue Reading →
Blog: Female Authors Aren’t Being “Infantilized” by the Publishing Industry. They’re Doing it to Themselves.
Recently, I ran across a channel on YouTube run by a woman named Elizabeth Wheatley and for those of you who haven't watched any of her videos, she's a fantasy/romance author who penned the Dandreth's Assassin series and generally makes videos promoting her book and talking about the genre she's in. At first, I really... Continue Reading →
Art Gallery: Traveler’s Lamp.
This is an original painting created by me. I had learned how to draw and paint lamps with light in them the week before and decided to incorporate that in this painting as the main piece. I really like how the light looks and how it seems to bounce off the pole holding the lamp,... Continue Reading →
Review: Runes is Kinda Meh. (Spoilers)
One fo the shows I was most excited to see when Bentkey was announced was the show Runes. From the trailer, it seemed like the type of show I would watch. It had magic, it had Norse mythology, the animation was pretty original and looked good...what's not to love? Well, I watched it and finished... Continue Reading →
