Word of the Day - Exogenous
As a long-time logophile (lover of words) I've been itching to do this for a while. You agree with me, right? Words are fascinating. Where would you or I be without them? They are the most versatile tools; they can be paintbrushes or knives. They can be sharp; they can soothe. They might be what separates us from animals. They can have an intriguing history.

When I Began
Late nights, early mornings, a rooster crows... I have had insomnia for as long as I can remember. I always would stay awake long into the early morning, when my siblings would be waking up to go to school but I would get stay home to play all day in my childhood bed which resided in a small office turned Harry Potter-esque closet of a room. What kept me awake? I rarely ever had a nightmare, and if I got scared of the dark I would turn on a night light.

The tale of the paramecium who lived happily ever after. Top Story - August 2023.
Early on in my childhood I decided I needed to study science so I could prove what I was thinking was true. I have always been curious to find answers with reasonable explanations. For example, it seemed reasonable that Moses was able to part the Red Sea because he was educated and knew about tides. I reasoned that Jesus turned water into wine by diluting it. I was always drawn to explain myths. That is not to say I do not believe in miracles. I have seen them happen. Within my realm of thought, it is not impossible to believe that a gut feeling is attuned to cosmic elements, and results in rare, unexplained serendipitous events.

10 Works Of Literature That Are *Technically* Fan Fiction
Fan fiction--the popularist fiction written by normal people (usually girls and women) and posted online/in a public forum--is frequently deemed trashy. Similar to salacious magazines a teenage boy hides under his bed, fan fiction readers are forced to hide their hobby and penchant for fan fiction. While the internet made the dissemination of fan fiction easier and more accessible, it is not uncommon to hear stories from parents and grandparents about a fan fiction that was passed around high school hallways chapter by chapter.
