Hey everyone!
New article about my engagement story! Check it out:
Girl Meets Geek
I know what you're thinking. Not another girl "gamer." Well, I'm not a "girl gamer" I'm female gamer. What's the difference? I don't do it for attention. In fact, I'd rather just be one of the guys.

Best Day EVER!
A few days ago, Elder-Geek.com offer me a position on their staff! And of course... I TOOK IT! From this point forward, I will be writing for them officially! I'm super excited! I think that I'm going to do a series on DigiPen Institute of Technology. My boyfriend, Nate, currently goes there so I want to interview his game team, the TAG game team (a PAX10 game), an engineering student, and an art student. If I have time, I will probably interview a teacher too, but I'm not sure yet. If anyone out there has a game they want reviewed or a feature they want written (on absolutely anything video game related) just comment here and I'll try to write it for you!

My First Article
Today marks the day that my first video game review goes on the internet! I wrote a review for Elder-Geek.com (great website, you should all check it out!) on de Blob, a game that came out for the Nintendo Wii in 2008. Check it out:

Interview with Elder-Geek
I had the privilege of being interviewed by Elder-Geek.com! If you want to read the article, here’s the link:
http://elder-geek.com/features/f_interview_with_barber.html
Wow! I never thought anyone would be interested in me! To be honest, when I found out from my friend Dan that they wanted to do a feature on me, it was like the scene in The Jerk when Steve Martin's character gets the phone book:
"This is the kind of spontaneous publicity - your name in print - that makes people. I'm in print! Things are going to start happening to me now!"
