Hey all,
This is a collection of links to a few things I've written in 2014 that I'm especially proud of. I've written quite a lot this year, and it was tough to narrow down, but I felt it was important to just zero in on a handful to share. Here they are:
"The Best Team No One's Talking About": A longform piece on the Ohio State Women's Rowing Team, which previewed what would eventually be a national championship season.

"The 2014 Big Ten All-Heist Team": A look at the guys with the coolest names in the Big Ten, told through the lens of an Ocean's 11-esque caper.

"Cardale Jones and the Last Crusade": The best damn Ohio State QB fanfiction you will read this year.

"A Bus Story": A short reflection on the ideas of memory, judgment, and ownership.

"Blankmap Chronicles: Book I, Chapter 1". The first chapter of the first-draft fantasy/adventure novel I've been writing all year. This was technically written in 2013, but I've reworked it a number of times this year and I'm considerably happier with it than I was 12 months ago. You can toggle to the other chapters from this site, as well:
