  • Starting as Strangers
    Starting as StrangersThrough April 2018 to April 2019 I was part of the Starting as Strangers (also known as the SAS) YouTube channel. The SAS was a collection of vlogs created by Strangers around the globe. The purpose is to learn more about each other and to have fun creating videos. The project was heavily inspired the vlogbrothers YouTube channel. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCG8ZsWkhDuruk3_M-ssYNLA
  • Write Up Our Alley
    Write Up Our AlleyIn December 2017 I joined the Write Up Our Alley group. The aim of this group was to explore the myth of what being a Writer is like in the modern world.  The group consisted of writers at various stages of their writing careers from across the globe. Every second and fourth Sunday of the month I uploaded a video to the Write Up Our Alley Youtube channel talking about an aspect of writing and updating my audience on my writing progress. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1js9o9U8PcRhj0GSX8TW3A

  • The Southbank Review
    The Southbank ReviewThe Southbank Review is the name of an online magazine my cohort designed and created in our final year at London South Bank University university in 2015. Two pieces of my work, a short story called Urban Exploration and a review on John Green's novel Looking for Alaska, were published.  Since their publication the website has been updated with the class of 2016's work but the link to both my articles still remain.
