About EThompson and this blog:

Curious as to how I tag my posts?

 For my original creative writing:

My original stories tags: fiction, prose, novel/short story

My original poem/original poetry: poems, poetry

Excerpts from my final drafts and bits from my rough drafts are posted directly to my Tumblr.

For my original nonfiction:

My original essays: essays, prose, nonfiction

My creative nonfiction: memoir/personal essay, creative writing

My analytic essays on all mediums of fiction and nonfiction: analysis

My reviews: my reviews, opinions, and recommendation on books/anime/manga/TV shows/non-anime cartoons/movies/video games.

First Take: Sometimes, I indulge in a visual medium of fiction (movie, television show, video game, etc.) that leaves me so emotional in some way that I can't help but type it and post it somewhere. These stream-of-consciousness essays are my brief, unadulterated, unedited opinions with glib analysis; these opinions may or may not change in the future.

I publish my writing on FictionPress. I've also published in my undergraduate university's literary magazine, The Normal Review. I published twice (Spring 2013 and Fall 2013), but only one is available online as of Nov. 29, 2021: "This Line" (page 55).

I’m not a prolific writer. I’m not able to write as often as I would like to. A lot of my writing is from my high school and college years, and I revamp them prior to posting them to my new version of my Tumblr/FictionPress/anywhere else. Don’t expect a lot of updates or new writing from me. I do tend to produce a bit of free writing in my spare time, though.

 Also, I occasionally post personal posts, selfies, and mindless nonsense that I think would be cool writing references and muse.

 ABOUT ME:

My name is Emma Thompson. Yes, I     know I share a name with an English actress. This was actually     unintentional on my mother’s part because she just liked the name Emma.     I’m a tad bitter about it, though, because my mom’s last name is Gorman;     she could have given me her last name and not my father’s.

My former Tumblr URL was     EmmaThompson0. The zero is a double reference to Coca-Cola Zero and Yu-Gi-Oh “season zero.” (Also, my most popular post was from my old Tumblr,     which is a SpongeBob reference. I don’t know how to feel about that.)

I am an Aquarius born     in the Year of the Monkey.

I’m female and identify as a     woman. I am often mistaken for bisexual because I love flirting with both     men and women. I have dated a girl before and would not be totally averse     to dating another, but I would not call myself bisexual. I don’t want to     bother too much with labels anyway. I’ve been described as a “girly     tomboy.” In general, I am often best described as a walking mystery.

I’m South Korean and Japanese.     I’m adopted, and my adoptive family is mostly Irish (my dad is     off-the-boat Scottish with some Irish). I have two siblings, both older     brothers. My second oldest brother is also a Korean adoptee, but we are     not biologically related.

Apparently, I consistently test     as an ENTP.

I’m diagnosed with     manic-depression (bipolar affective disorder, type 2) with tendencies to     self-harm and self-medicate. I am also diagnosed with eating disorder not     otherwise specified (now called other specified feeding or eating     disorder/OSFED). I have it all controlled, though.

In May 2014, I received a     bachelor of arts in political     science and jurisprudence (dual major, no minors). In May     2016, I graduated with a master of arts in public policy.

Favorite authors and     books? Ernest Hemingway’s Across the River and into     the Trees is my favorite book ever. Hemingway is my     favorite writer, really. Others: Agatha Christie, Ursula K. LeGuin,     John Grisham, Douglas Adams, Charles Dickens, Walker Percy, Shirley     Jackson, Mark Twain, Oscar Wilde, Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird, Michael Crichton’s Next, Voltaire’s Candide, Joseph     Heller’s Catch-22, Aldous     Huxley’s Brave New World, George     Orwell’s 1984, Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451, Graham Green’s The Quiet American, Upton Sinclair’s The Jungle, William Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing, Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein, Washington Irving’s “The Devil     and Tom Walker”

 ABOUT MY WRITER PERSONA:

WHY DID YOU NOT MAJOR IN WRITING?

I was bored of it. It was never     presented to me as a challenge in academia because every professor and     classmate boiled writing down to “all art is subjective.” No one wanted to     have an interesting conversation about writing philosophy and technique.     Even when I took an undergrad-level creative nonfiction course, it still was reduced to “all art is subjective.”

Besides, when I transferred to     Montclair State from a community college, the creative writing minor was     not split into prose and poetry. If I had declared that minor when I     transferred, I would have stayed an extra year in undergrad since poli-sci     and jurisprudence have very little overlap with creative writing. When I     started my senior year, the minor was finally split and it was too late to     declare it without staying in undergrad an extra semester or two.

Law and political science     happened to present a challenge, but I also later found that something I     really care about can best be pursued as a political scientist. My     interests are more in healthcare policy, insurance regulations, and labor     law than writing—though I know I can incorporate such topics into writing.     However, I am more geared towards advocacy.

I studied writing (besides     mandatory English classes) in school twice: once in my high school senior     year in a creative writing class and another in my junior year of college     in creative nonfiction.

 WHAT DO YOU WRITE ABOUT? WHERE DO YOU FIND YOUR INSPIRATION?

Anything and everything.

I find myself more geared towards     prose, although I do dabble in screenplays every so often.

I’m not really into poetry.     However, I do occasionally write some just to give myself some practice     writing (i.e., I'm bored).

Most of my inspiration comes from     my everyday life experiences, so a large portion of my writing is semi-autobiographical.     More of my inspiration comes from reading the news.

 WHAT MADE YOU INTERESTED IN WRITING?

As part of a lesson to learn the     writing process in the fourth grade, I cowrote a story about acid rain     with one of my best friends. My favorite teacher in elementary school     complimented the story as the most creative one in the class. (I adored     this man, and he unfortunately died from a brain tumor at such a young age     two years later.)

In the fifth grade, my teacher     recommended me for a young author’s conference for Central New     Jersey. I went, met other writers (both my age and legit published     writers), and was rather impressed by all the cool ideas people had.

It wasn’t until my high school     sophomore year that I started to get serious about writing. My English     honors teacher made a comment that I wrote almost exactly like Ernest     Hemingway after reading my first essay for that class. It wasn’t until a     few months later when I read my first Hemingway novel (A Farewell to Arms) that she was probably right,     but I wanted to figure out for myself why she was right. I started really     studying the mechanics of writing and the aesthetic philosophies of     writing, making a departure from my middle school days of simply wanting     to improve my writing by only striving for an original plot.

Hey, just swinging by to say I absolutely adore your blog. You have some interesting writing that I will one day move heaven and earth to check out in more detail.

Hwaaaa thank you! ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡

I’m sort of on a hiatus lately coz I’m having fun playing Dota 2 when I come home from work. Bought a compendium w/c was kinda expensive so I had to play the game again to make it worth it. lolol. But I’ll get right back to writing after I come home from vacation next week. (￣▽￣*)ゞ

[emma-what-son]

She's not an acting royalty. That would be actresses like EThompson, Kate Winslet, Keira Knightley, Maggie Smith etc. However, Emma is the most likely the most famous English celeb in her age group. Thanks to HP, of course.

Yep
