  • Going Paperless 14: "Taste of Fame"

    Finally a recent piece of writing to share! I've gotten into the swing of a new semester, and I'm going to push myself to write as much as I can! This is "Taste of Fame", a short short story inspired by the short story "Delusions of Stardom" by Anne Frank.

  • Going Paperless 13: "Back in Business"

    Here it is! My mom's favorite play! I've been sick all week, but I couldn't wait any longer, so without further ado... "Back in Business", or as my mom calls it, "The Roasts, Roasts, and Roasts Play"!

  • Going Paperless 12: "Dead of Night"

    After a short break, I'm back with a new play. Well, new to y'all; I wrote it awhile ago. This is "Dead of Night", or what comes of watching viral videos the night before a new play is due. Big thanks to my friends helping out with this one!

  • Going Paperless 10: "Nevertheless"

    TW: This play contains discussions of rape. 

    Here it is... my magnum opus. Please enjoy "Nevertheless", a play about seventeenth century artist, Artemisia Gentileschi. This play is a social statement and a history lesson because I love to multitask! I hope you find my girl Arty as wonderful and inspiring as I do.

  • Going Paperless 8: "All Seven Stars"

    Last time I shared the first play I ever wrote; this time I'm sharing the first one-act play I ever wrote! This play is my baby, and I really hope you enjoy it! See if you can spot the space and mythology Easter eggs I threw in while writing. Big thanks to my friends/actors!

  • Going Paperless 7: "Train of Thought"

    Let's try something brand new! This is "Train of Thought", the first play I ever wrote! It's not my best work,-- in fact, it was kind of unpleasant to hear read aloud-- but it's an important touchstone for my body of work. Big thanks to my friends, Emily, Victoria, and Tiamber, for reading this play for me!

  • Going Paperless 6: "Z-List"

    This is the first scene of what could someday become a longer work entitled "Z-List"! Tune in for a zombie detective story, and please don't ask how I spelled out the dialogue...

  • Going Paperless 5: "All Eyes"
    A bildungsroman is a type of story that encompasses a character's life and growth, similar to a coming of age story. "All Eyes" is a bildungsroman I wrote awhile ago about two groups of people separated by insignificant differences and their journey to achieve new unity.
