Hello Internet People! It’s nice to e-meet you. Let me start by introducing myself. I’m Stephen. Among other things, I’m a writer, gamer, nerd, and cosplayer. Through this site, I’m hoping to share my love for all things nerdy, especially cosplay.
Cosplay is a fun way of expressing who we are, what we love, and who we want to be.
GROWING UP GEEK
Starting with Star Wars at the age of 2, my passion for sci-fi grew into a lifelong love of comics, gaming, and everything fantastical. All these weird, underdog, and outcast characters make me feel like I belonged to a larger community and had friends who were going through the same things I dealt with daily. They gave me a connection to the rest of the world, taught me lessons along the way, and helped me become a more creative person.
As an adult, I now look back on my childhood filled with Jedi warriors and mutant powers and recognize how these genres helped shape my life in a positive way. It’s incredibly cool to have a decades long relationship with these characters too….which has totally fed my love of cosplay – I can honor the characters from my favorite fandoms by dressing up as them! Heck yes!
Speaking of… some of my favorite fandoms are:
- Star Wars
- Marvel Comics
- Pokémon
It’s always fun to connect with people who love the same things I hold so dear, so don’t hesitant to send an email, leave a comment, or just quietly read along.
