Hello Lit Lovers!

Well, hello everyone. Welcome to my blog.

My Social Media Marketing class this semester is having us each keep a blog, to be updated once a week, on any topic we choose. As I'm dreaming of working in publishing after graduation (maybe even being a literary agent 20 years down the road), it only seemed natural that I would write about books.

Here's the catch; school takes up most of my time. I'm also on the executive boards of National Novel Writing Month club and the Bradley University Swing Dance Society, plus I tutor at the Center for Learning Assistance. I've got a full plate, so reading tends to take a backseat to my other priorities. I'm not going to be reading a full book every week.

Thus, I won't just be writing about books. I'll be writing about anything literature-related, which may often include adaptions. Over the last year (or four), I've become deeply entrenched in the Literary Inspired Webseries community on YouTube and Tumblr, and I fully expect to write about topics that come up through these shows. Fair warning: topics touched upon can be controversial. In the past, topics brought up have included racial/sexual orientation representation and stereotypes, defining sexual assault, and how to adapt text where people disguise themselves as another gender without being transphobic.

I know, it's heavy stuff, but it's important to talk about. So let's just have a little fun, shall we? Here's a creeper shot I took in London of a guy who looked like he walked out of a Dickens novel... eating Doritos.

Lots of Love,
Sam
