During her spare time (when she’s not reading), she combines her love for video and literature by uploading videos to her book review channel, Chapter Zero. While fantasy and weird fiction is her go-to, she hopes to learn more about all the different forms of story-telling that there are.  Allison will be joining our team as our Media Arts Intern.
