Hello! I suppose an introduction is overdue.

I have a Ph.D. in Rhetoric and currently work as an assistant professor, which means I spend a rather unreasonable amount of my life thinking about language. Outside the classroom, I am a literary critic and an obsessive reader. I love fiction, poetry, essays, strange experiments, and so on. I also write, which means I am painfully aware that giving criticism is much easier than receiving it. Perhaps that is part of why I enjoy both.

Anyway... hello. Send me something interesting to read. :)

You might want to open a Will Review For Food thread then? :3

Also impressive CV!

“Completely.”

“I want to sleep on top!”

Welcome to YWS! Glad you are here :)
Who's to say that my light is better than your darkness? Who's to say death is better than your darkness? Who am I to say?

I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become.

I have a friend who travels a lot and during our recent coffee date he was talking about VIP Escorts in Aerocity and the way he was describing the local vibe around that part of the city felt very spontaneous and genuine as if nothing was out of the ordinary during those discussions.

Oh hey, it’s my favorite author. (Oh, apparently I already made this joke on your wall.)

Impressive CV! Nice to have you. I second Tikaya regarding a WRFF thread.
