Erin Archer | Member Since 17 Jan, 2018I'm a 20-something aspiring writer with a thirst for knowledge and a passion for literature, science, and travelling among other things. My dream is to write a story in which I can share the figments of my hyperactive imagination with the world.
Interests & Hobbies
Drawing, worldbuilding, occasionally teaching myself the piano, singing, outdoor activities (hiking, camping, sailing, skiing, skating, etc.), discovering new food, travelling, swimming, karate, science and tech, philosophy (esp. ethics), teaching.
Favorite Movies
Oof, how to choose? Gonna list a few in the order they pop into my head: Sci-Fi: Ender's Game, Interstellar, Avatar (James Cameron), the new Star Trek movies Sci-Fi/Fantasy: Star Wars (PT and OT, was unfortunately disappointed in the ST for storytelling reasons), a couple Marvel movies (Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Black Panther, Thor: Ragnarok), Wonder Woman, Birds of Prey, can't think of any others right now. Fantasy: Harry Potter (Philosopher's Stone, Chamber of Secrets, Goblet of Fire, the others weren't that memorable for me). Animated: How to Train Your Dragon trilogy, various Pixar movies (including Brave), Moana, Tangled, Rise of the Guardians, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, Megamind. Action: Mission Impossible franchise, The Man from U.N.C.L.E... again, can't think of more right now. Other: ?
