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 not to Write Emotionally Damaged Characters: Tris
I am not a fan of the Divergent trilogy. Not only is it essentially soft porn for teenagers, but the main character, Tris (short for Beatrice because she’s just soo edgy), has one of the worst mental health arcs I have ever read. Throughout the series (especially in book 2), she is a whiny, selfish... 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: Happy Valentine’s Day. Let’s Talk About How to Write a Romance.
As you guys know, I am not the type of person who likes love-triangles or many other lovey-dovey type tropes in books. However, I’m not completely heartless; I still enjoy a good love story now and again in a book when it’s not completely contrived. So let’s talk about how I think a romance should...

Blog: Why I Don’t Like Melanie Martinez
If you’re not a late millennial or Gen-Zer, you may not know who Melanie Martinez is, so let me fill you in real quick. Basically, she’s a singer who first popped up when she was 16 on an episode of America’s Got Talent in 2012 and launched her music career from there. Since then, she’s... Continue Reading →
Blog: I Went Ice Skating for the First Time. YouTube Didn’t Prepare Me Enough.
I usually don’t talk much about stuff that I do in my personal life on this blog and the reason for that is I’m not big on putting stuff about that onto the internet for thousands of people to see. However, in today’s case, I feel the story is funny and relatable enough to put... Continue Reading →
Review: King Lear Has Issues (Spoilers)
As some of you may know from my post about YouTuber Unclaimed Demigod’s video defending the LGBTQ+ agenda in Rick Riordan’s books, I am a sophomore student and in the grand tradition of high school, that naturally means reading a lot of Shakespear’s writing. So far, I haven’t covered much of his writing, so that’s... Continue Reading →
Review: Pilgrim’s Progress Was Okay (Spoilers)
I don't know if you guys ever read Pilgrim's Progress as part of your schooling, but as someone who is homeschooled, it was part of my curriculum. At the time, I didn't really know much about it other than it was considered a classic and was supposed to be an allegory for Christianity. Thus, I... Continue Reading →
News: We’re Getting a Raceswapped Wizard of Oz and It’s a Wonderful Life.
If you thought that 2024 was going to be the year of Hollywood finding creativity again, you are a child. Hollywood went bankrupt on ideas a long time ago and in a desperate attempt to get people to come back to it, has decided to just slap some "diverse" characters into it to make sure that...

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. Now, with Season 2 of Rings of Power on the way (supposedly), the rumors... Continue Reading →
