Who am I?
I am G.E.M.Simov, and I am afraid I will not be sharing what that means, not yet, at least...
What I will disclose is that I've been really enamored with the concept of critique and contemplation ever since I found out what it was and what it could be. From that point onward, I've been working towards enhancing my manner of expression and broadening my horizons.
This website will serve as something of an ultimate archive pertaining to my contemplative efforts, be they literary creations of critique of the labor of others.
Let me present some reasons why I am not a random fellow with no qualifications to do any critical work - I've:
1. Read hundreds of books and written more than a hundred different pieces of fiction, as well as a vast multitude of essays on various topics;
2. Played hundreds of video games and spent time learning how to make games in university; have also done counseling for game studios;
3. Watched many shows and many more films, whilst also being accepted in university as an Experimental Film Director, was tutored by a film critic and completed a course in Critique of Theater with the highest possible grade;
4. Studied under a mentor with 30+ years in the field of documentation writing and usability counseling;
5. Bachelor & Master of Philosophy, graduated with the highest possible grade.
I aim to share work I've labored over, be it my ideas or my views on things.
