Okay. I was a little extra with this one. But I think it’s a great mixture of the fan experience and an in-depth interview. We talk about comics, music, and some of most interesting choices Gerard Way has made as a writer.

I wrote this article for Bustle about some of the beautiful queer love stories being told in comics. I interviewed creators Vita Ayala, Mariko Tamaki, Grace Ellis, and Shae Beagle for this piece.

I play the role of “the girl who loves the Phantom Menace” and “the prequel girlie” on my Star Wars podcast (Talkin’ Tauntauns) and I am OKAY WITH THAT. In this article, I passionately explain why.

In my comics beat, one of my goals was to shed light on the people who made comics amazing, but were not given the same attention as the writer or line artist. So, I took this opportunity to speak to some amazing colorists: Tamra Bonvillain, Kelly Fitzpatrick, June Chung, Jordie Bellaire, and Laura Allred.

This was the first and only time I got to cover anything related to Disney World, and it is still a highlight of my career. I’d love to do more work like this.

Banjo-Kazooie was my favorite video game as a kid, but I never beat it. Finishing it as an adult was a saga, and it cemented the game’s spot as my #1.

I often covered The Walking Dead while at Mashable, and I had very strong opinions about that show.

Man, I LOVED the Snagglepuss comic written by Mark Russell. And I found every excuse to write about it.

Being a Nirvana fan means knowing that Kurt probably would not have liked this article. I wrote it anyway.

I wrote this in March of 2017, which was a political nightmare. Comic creators had started to receive criticism about inserting a “political agenda” into comics, not realizing that at their very core, comic books are political. I spoke to Scott Snyder, Ben Percy, Mark Russell, Cecil Castellucci, Marley Zarcone, and Jimmy Palmiotti about it.

This one was deeply personal to me. I wrote from the heart about personal trauma, and why Harley Quinn resonates with survivors of all kinds.

Remember when the “wench auction” was a thing that existed in the Pirates of the Caribbean ride? It was an absolute delight to break this news for CBR, and I smile every single time I ride through the new version of the scene because of it.

I had the pleasure of talking to Paul Dini about Harley, and her 25th birthday. (Fun fact, Harley and I are the same age.)

This one was more or less therapy for me, but I knew other people would relate. That’s my entire justification.

I LOVED the Young Animal Imprint. I thought it was some of the best storytelling in comics at the time. And I stand by that.

This team was amazing, and so was this book. I adored having this conversation with the creators of a book that so eloquently discussed mental health.

Green Day absolutely thrives in politically charged times. It’s almost like they need that atmosphere to make good music. How very punk rock.

Paul Dini is an absolute treasure and I adored interviewing him. This book was also stellar.

Video games have a special place in my heart, and always have. In this article, I tell my personal story through video games, and conclude that there is no wrong way to be a “gamer.”

I got to interview Brian and Dan from Ninja Sex Party about their comic. As a huge enjoyer of both NSP and Game Grumps, this was a fun one.

When Tom Petty passed away, I was hit pretty hard. He was one of my dad’s favorite musicians and I was raised on his work. So, when the team was asked who could write about some of his most iconic and influential songs, I raised my hand.
