Introduction Post

Hey there, my name is Ellery (based off of the 1930s mystery writer- Ellery Queen) but you’re welcome to call me Elle. I chose to major in animation, for both my love of art and world building, and having the creative power to immerse an audience in a reality far from our own. I was a huge bookworm in my adolescence, and fantasy was always my go-to. As someone with a vivid imagination, reading books with fantastical elements is far more entertaining than any nonfiction novel. While I haven’t indulged in any of the more mainstream series like Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings, I’ve read plenty books filled with gods, creatures, magic or otherwise. I have few assumptions of the fantasy genre mainly because of its undefined potential. I think fantasy correlates with magic, whether that be beasts, spiritual, spells, and even futuristic designs like mech/high-tech. To qualify as “fantasy,” the work must simply contain a world that can’t exist within our reality.
