Ender is a Junior here as well as an aspiring author. Their work ranges from quests long forgotten to discovering nightmare worthy truths. They are a true crime junkie and appreciate the thrill of horror. If you ever want to give this nerd a gift, a thriller book will likely catch their attention. They may space out a lot, thinking about the fascinating cosmos. Or be geeking out over a new history fact they learned.
