Hello everyone! You likely know me by the name Hunter Nix, but now I answer to Elliot and, if you haven’t met me around campus or couldn’t already tell, I am a Junior Literary. Which means these lovely little blogs are a part of my life now. And, truthfully, I’m not entirely sure how to feel about that. Of course, there’s the part of me that, as the inner author, leaps at any writing opportunity. I am sure my fellow Literary students will agree with me on this. As expected, there is also the inner critic who is worried my blogs will not go over well with the audience, given that publicly sharing my work is something I’m relatively new to.\u00a0<\/p>\n
However, there is also a discernable third option I was not quite prepared for. An as of yet unnamed inner party who wants nothing more than the simple goal of writing something that is worthy. Not something I can be proud of, or that people enjoy, like every other piece. But rather, the idea that, in five years time when I randomly remember that MSA blogs exist and revisit this site, I will still find satisfaction deeper than “that is written well enough to please” in my writing. I want these blogs to mean something.<\/p>\n
Not necessarily some unfathomably deep meaning or complex message. Truthfully, my head is already so full of ideas that are so varied I’m sure these blogs will wind up ranging everywhere from Midnight “meaning of life” contemplations to breakdowns of my weekend trip home.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Rather, I want these blogs to convey something that is special to me. Even if they’re written about some seemingly trivial topic or an everyday discussion. I want them to hold meaning. To be personal.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I’m thinking that I’ll try my hand at a bit of everything. Series, reviews, excerpts of my work or the work of my peers, mentions over friends I’ve made on campus that have done something “blog worthy”, etcetera etcetera.\u00a0<\/p>\n
So, I hope that you, my lovely little audience, will stick with me as I explore what it is that I’m searching for and how I can find it. I promise, one way or another, it will be worth it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After all, the one thing we can all agree on is that I am never boring, right?<\/p>\n
Sincerely, an overly anxious Junior.\u00a0<\/p>\n
