If Jonah Bones had a rifle pointed at him and was asked who the hell he is, he’d probably start by saying that he’s a midwestern, ex-track star, skeleton, baker, tech weenie, cat dad. Then, Boner (nickname) would bring up being a rapper and get shot.

She is studying Writing and Rhetoric and Spanish and hopes to one day find a career in something important and exciting, although she has no idea what that entails. In her free time, Allison enjoys spending time in nature and reading. Even though she has been writing creatively for most of her life, she only shared this piece because of the encouragement of Professor William Stobb's creative writing course. Allison thanks her existential angst for its contribution to her writing. Aaron Ickler is a 4th year at UWL, with a major in art with minors in photography and creative writing. Harley Kramer is a super senior studying English Literature. They enjoy reading, listening to music, and hanging out with their cat. They consume way too much caffeine for it to be healthy and only eats healthy meals because of Hello Fresh since they can’t cook to save their life unless they have something telling them exactly what to do. They want to go into publishing so that they can have an excuse (and get paid) to feed their reading addiction.
