Author: Dani Hoots Author
Let me introduce myself, my name is Dani Hoots and I am a writer, blogger, artist, photographer, cosplayer, and a full out geek. I have a BS in Anthropology and a Masters of Urban and Environmental Planning. I love studying about human rights, environmental problems, and how we should deal with dilemmas such as conservation and bringing nature back into cities, but that’s all for another blog. This blog, I am going to focus on my thoughts and interactions of everything geek, nerd, and dork related along with my writing experience! I grew up in the 90s when we had amazing shows like X-MEN, X-MEN evolution, Pokemon, DragonBall, Sailor Moon, Trigun, Tenchi, and so many others. I will talk about shows, games, movies, anime, manga, books, whether or not Star Wars 7 is going to be any good. I will post pictures of comicons I attend, cosplays that I will do, some cool astrophysics stuff, and occasionally write about my stories on kindle, and some day my novels. I will also review manga, anime, shows, movies, and games here. I hope you enjoy what I say and if not, well, too bad.
