History Tropers / AnCeithreMarcach

Overambitious troper studying creative writing at the National University of Ireland, Galway. I identify most strongly as a writer of fiction and poetry but I spend plenty of time in the worlds of non-fiction, drama, screenplays, comics, music and lyrics; basically, if I have something I want to say, I’ll say it in whatever medium best suits it. I've only recently begun to get my work published — before then, my writing was mainly found in TheSlenderManMythos. I also maintain [[http://newageofabsurdity.wordpress.com/ a personal blog]].

* Favourite musical: ''[[Theatre/LesMiserables Les Miserables]]''

My work typically concerns itself with our relationships with history and the past, the desire to be good vs the difficulty of being good and mental illness in its myriad forms. I’m also interested in editing and translating, as well as literary criticism, so literature is definitely my first great passion. My second is debating – I've been debating competitively since I was 14 and currently number among the fine folks of the NUIG Literary & Debating Society. Apart from literature and debating, my interests include music, gaming, history, economics, drawing, politics and languages.

* Favourite band: BonIver

* Favourite browswer game: ''Don't Look Back''

* Favourite book series: ''[[ASongOfIceAndFire A Song of Ice and Fire]]''

* Favourite webcomic: ''TheOrderOfTheStick''

* Favourite video game: ''[[VideoGame/FalloutNewVegas Fallout: New Vegas]]''

Overambitious troper studying creative writing at the National University of Ireland, Galway. I primarily write poetry and prose, but I've written for screen and stage too. I'm also a composer and songwriter, though I'm dreadfully out of practice. I've only recently begun to get my work published — before then, my writing was mainly found in TheSlenderManMythos. I also maintain [[http://newageofabsurdity.wordpress.com/ a personal blog]].

My work typically concerns itself with our relationships with history and the past, the desire to be good vs the difficulty of being good and mental illness in its myriad forms. Next to writing, my second great passion is debating (especially competitive debating), which I've been heavily involved with since I co-founded my secondary school's debating society at 14. My other interests include music, gaming, history, economics, drawing, politics and languages.
