What is this website about?

Hi, I'm Shalon. I'm a writer and I use this website to share interesting links and information I learn on my journeys in creative writing, education, English, science, and psychology.

My goal with this website is to ground and connect my writing to a larger knowledge community. Each essay on this website is a labour of love. You won't find any disposable blog-style content -- only the best writing grounded in research, with plenty of references to professional and academic websites, books and articles.
