Hi! My name is Julia and I am from California. I am a substitute for Jr. High and Elementary and a tutor at the WRC. (Yes, those are grays in my hair.)

I love reading which is why I am an English Major with an emphasis on teaching credentials. I just finished the short story I Have Not Mouth and I Must Scream by Harlan Ellison (Trigger warning: AI taking over, cannibalism, major character death, torture). It’s a good spooky read, has an audio/radio broadcast dramatization on YouTube, a game and the inspiration for the YouTube series (also on Netflix) Amazing Digital Circus— YT show is more tame than the book so far— for the month of October. I’m currently trying to start reading Carmilla by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu and a new book called the Graveyard Shift by M. L. Rio.

I also play video games whenever I get the chance and the games I love to play are Cult of the Lamb and Baldur’s Gate 3. I may not have a lot of free time at the current moment with school and work, but I’ll play for an hour or two if I can spare it. I also play Dungeons and Dragons. I play with a group just about every Friday and I am currently coordinating a campaign to play with CSUB’s English Club!

Another thing is that I will make references to random things — TikTok, Gravity Falls, Steven Universe etc. So please be prepared. I will also explain jokes if you let me because I like people being in on jokes. I will sometimes use Gen Alpha slang because I mostly sub Jr. High and below and some of it’s kinda stuck.

Hello Everyone! My name is Nick Cwiertniewski and if you haven’t guessed by now…I am the son of Polish parents (they are both from a small town called Koprzywnica near Sandomierz). I am currently studying English at California State University-Bakersfield with an emphasis in teaching. I am hoping to become a high school English teacher. Once upon a time (2008) I did a study-abrod to Krakow and studied at Uniwersytet Jagielloński. I had the time of my life and cherish my Polish roots dearly.

I also have a degree in Political Science, served 10 years in the United States Air Force, and hold a Master’s of Fine Arts in Screenwriting. I love taking in stories and making them up myself. I spend a lot of time watching movies and playing video games. I very much look forward to meeting you all and discussing the novel and sharing our lives! :)

Hi, my name is Klaudia and I'm an English Philology student at the University of Applied Sciences in Nysa, Poland. I am studying to become a translator in the future. I enjoy drawing fantasy and my favorite thing related to it is creating original, mostly dragon-like creatures. I have a lot of ideas for them, but it's hard for me to put on paper. Maybe in the future! Music inspires me a lot; I listen to basically every genre. Other than that, I enjoy playing and spending time with my dog. Though my biggest hobby is probably playing video games - my favorite game series is Monster Hunter; I love everything about it: the designs, ecology, but especially the soundtrack. I'm looking forward to meeting you all.

I chose translator specialization but that doesn't mean it's my life goal. We'll see what life brings :)

Some facts about me: cat owner, fan of "Fast and Furious" movie franchise, interested in cars, but not in the strictly mechanical aspect, and video games player. Do you know "Witcher 3"? If not, you must play.

Hi! My name is Madysen, and I am currently a junior at California State University, Bakersfield. I have two Associate's Degrees - one in English and one in Liberal Arts - and am about three semesters away from completing my Bachelor's Degree in English with Credential Emphasis! After graduation, I plan to continue my education; I'll be going for my teaching credential and then, eventually, a Master's Degree (although I haven't settled on a program/subject yet!).

I was born here, in Bakersfield, California, and have lived here for most of my life. I know this city gets a bad rap sometimes, but it raised me, and I think I turned out pretty okay!

I enjoy long walks, riding my Beach Cruiser around my neighborhood, playing board games, and spending time with my loved ones. I haven't had much time for leisure reading this semester, but when I do have time to crack open a book, it's usually contemporary women's fiction, historical fiction, or a thriller -- but I also dabble in science fiction and fantasy!

I'm looking forward to meeting you all and having a great discussion about All You Can Ever Know by Nicole Chung! :)
