I am an author.

I absolutely love reading and writing. These are some of the things I've written recently, but I'm not really counting fanfiction and the more leisure stuff here. Mostly essays, but also my first book! Click on the photos to read my work.

Expect to see more on this page very soon!

Don't Look Back, Don't Forget

I know I said I'm not including fanfiction in this page, but this isn't really fanfiction... It's based off of a text-based role-play I've been conducting with some friends.

I submitted this essay to the Queen's Commonwealth Essay Competition 2025 and won the Bronze award.

This year's QCEC had the highest recorded number of participants ever: 53, 400+, a 53% increase from 2024.

Another expansion of the role-play, this is the backstory of my character(s), because I'm over attached.

Edit: I entered this into the World Youth and Teenage Writing Contest, and received the Special Gold (top 12%) Award!

Which Key Factors Drive a Narrative?

My first official "academic" essay! I still tried to keep the language and vibe light here.

Edit: This one was for Immerse Educations's essay competition.
