Hi everyone, my name is Theo, and I’m brand new to Brookes. I love music and everything related to it. I listen to many genres, but mainly listen to metal, and love anything that pushes the boundaries of music itself. I love collecting vinyl, CDs, and cassette tapes, and listen to them in my free time. I also enjoy early 20th/19th century cookbooks as they give a great insight into life in the country and time period they were written in.
As a reader, I am interested in many things. I love horror, fantasy, sci-fi, and westerns, mainly, but will read anything that piques my interest. My favorite book of all time has to be Steven King’s The Shining, as it changed the way I viewed literature. I am currently reading Breakfast Of Champions by Kurt Vonnegut, and really enjoy his dry, humorous critique of how our society conducts itself.
As a writer, I don’t enjoy creative writing, but prefer to write reports on various topics. I don’t normally write for fun, but I am getting into it as I enjoy the process. This year I aspire to try and do more creative writing, although I’m not the best at it. I am very excited about all the opportunities I will have for writing this year, and hope to really work on my writing skills.
