Biography
I am a 21yr old 2nd year Undergraduate at Bristol University in the UK (Senior - College, in the United States), studying English Literature, particularly that of Middle English between the late-12th and early-15th centuries. Aside from that I am studying contemporary American Literature general literary criticism. The philosophy of literature also factors heavily in my work. I have a particular penchant for the expansion and diversifying of my vocabulary; I love to read about the etymology of words and discover new synonyms or technical terms.
