My name is Amanda. I am attending Ohio University where I am majoring in Digital Media, which will hopefully enable me to go on to become a video game designer.


I have a strange fascination with lighting, I tend to trip over my own feet fairly often, I find playing Pokemon to be therapeutic, and I love this obscure series of novels that you've probably never heard of.

The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore

Inspired, in equal measures, by Hurricane Katrina, Buster Keaton, The Wizard of Oz, and a love for books, “Morris Lessmore” is a story of people who devote their lives to books and books who return the favor.

Please, set aside 15 minutes of your time to watch this amazingly brilliant short animation. I can’t even describe how beautiful, heartfelt, and nostalgic it was to watch. Because of how many awards it has won and nominated for, they also made it an interactive book for the iPad (here). You can also view it for free on your itunes (here). I’m telling you, for all my book lovers, librarians, authors, writers, anybody who has ever loved a book, this short was made for you. Watch it. 

I saw this at the film festival last year and it blew me away. Glad to watch it again, still amazed me the 2nd time.
