This is a sample of micro-fiction pieces from my Family Christmas Anthology 2023 collection that I created and self-published as Chapbooks. Each micro-fiction story is catered towards one of my family members and what they have taught me.
This is a "Talk of the Town" creative nonfiction piece that I wrote specifically for submission to The Globe and Mail. It is about a pagan Ostara festival hosted by a club at Sheridan College. It is currently in the editorial process.
This is the first part of my APA-style professional analysis of personality psychology in the news. I chose a recent local news article and looked at criminal behaviors and personality traits and examined them through different psychological lenses.
This is a blog post that I wrote, contributing to a larger collaborative paper researching how to fund publishing endeavors. My article, The Book Coma Cure, focused on how the Canada Media Fund tended to allocate more funding towards audio-visual projects rather than written ones.
This is an excerpt of my one act play called, Death by Black Hole. It is a science-fiction tragic comedy about a cruel and egotistical space pilot taking advantage of his robot servant. In retaliation, the robot sets their spaceship route to enter a black hole. It examines the ethical themes regarding AI and the treatment of non-humans in a futuristic setting.
This is my professional review of the novel, "Midnight Sun", by Stephenie Meyer. It is written in the style of a Kirkus Review.

My fiction excerpt titled, Obsessive Compulsive Demonic Possession, is narrated in the perspective of OCD/Intrusive thoughts personified into a demon stalking my main character Alexie in her nightmares. She suffers from religious scrupulosity OCD, aka, she fears that she is being possessed by a demon following the death of her grandparents. These fears manifest in her dreams as a demon chasing her, which further confirms and amplifies her anxiety surrounding possession during the day.
