Chloe Kovarik (she/her) goes home after school to creatively write for a minimum of fifteen minutes a day. Beyond this, she spends a good deal of free time character-building for stories she’s working on. Pro-tip: the Sims 4 is a helpful tool for this endeavor. Perhaps against her mom’s wishes, Kovarik’s most frequented genre is thriller/horror fiction. Go see for yourself in the ‘24 Iris: Art + Lit, where her thriller short story, Elaina Elliots, was showcased last year. Kovarik works as a Staff Writer for The Rubicon.
