Anthony Defilipis
Hailey Creason, student at Seaman High School, is the Head Editor of the Radljost Literary Magazine. She was born in 2005 and ever since the early years of the 2000’s and 2010’s, writing had been an ultimate passion for her. Although writing fascinates her, reading hasn’t always been on the list of love. She hated reading in her early years and while that hatred diminished, she still can’t force herself to finish a book that holds no interest in her. Her favorite book is “To Drink Coffee With A Ghost” by Amanda Lovelace. She spent years figuring out what she wanted to do with her life and it finally came to her that going into editing and publishing was the end goal for her career.
Note: Hailey’s secret style is including as much imagery as possible to convey interpretation in the works she’s written. She prefers leaving it up to the reader.
Anthony Defilipis is a young man that had a frightfully boring uprising. From a young age he had disliked many of the popular sports most of the kids had played. Anthony was initially about 200 pounds until the age of 15. The age 15 was a strong year for him for self succession. Before 14 he was a nerd type of kid. He was the type of kid to bring pokemon cards to school and gloat to his classmates about having a foil charizard that he bought off of the internet. He would get competitive over miniscule card games and get really into different nerd games like Yugioh, Dungeons and Dragons, and obviously Pokemon. His interests didn’t change when he was 15 but his weight and strength did. Before 15 he was the stereotypical fat nerd guy that many people wouldn’t take seriously. When he became 15 he started to exercise and starve himself daily. He was sick of being fat and being pushed around, so he was dedicated to change as a person and grow a spine. He lost 70 pounds by going through hell on the daily. He started to focus more on himself. He focused on the parts of him that even he himself didn’t understand. The motivation behind his thoughts, the reason behind his actions. He would eventually understand his own morals as well as the perspectives of others. He would still be the card game nerd at heart but he got into a boxing class. You could call it a metamorphosis.
