I have a Bachelors of Arts in Humanities and a Master of Arts in English; during my masters degree I focused mostly on modern American literature and film, really enjoying interdisciplinary work, and after my degree, taught composition, creative writing and literature at the university level for a few years.
While I grew up in California and still consider it home, I’ve moved around a bit since then; currently, I live in South Korea where I teach English and stuff myself with Kimchi and Toblerone bars and watch way too much TV. My tastes extend into the realm of the eclectic and some of my favorites are Arrested Development, Castle, pretty much anything by HBO but specifically True Blood and Game of Thrones (ditto for BBC), and loads of old shows, Star Trek, I Dream of Jeannie, Murder She Wrote, Northern Exposure, most of which are campy and nostalgic (who else loves the original Doctor Who?).
Similarly, my taste in movies is all over the place: old movies and classics (Arsenic and Old Lace, The Odd Couple, anything with Jack Lemmon), The Last of the Mohicans, Legends of the Fall, The Producers (the original), Drop Dead Gorgeous and a vast collection of the ridiculous and poignant.
I look forward to discussing all of the above and more with you (whilst probably saying far too much myself) here at Bitch Flicks.
