Intro: Get to Know Me, and My Mission

Welcome! To Rose Reviews (and more).
Being a Freelance Photographer for two years now, my love for adventure, events, and more has grown into a full fledged passion that can not be put out. Growing up, my only ambition was to be a writer. Was to weave the written word into something beautiful, elegant, romantic, and captivating. To draw people in with a few sentences, to take their reality away and give them -- even if only briefly -- a new one. One that would hopefully affect them and stick with them for weeks or months after the impact. Something to get them thinking.

Since those days of fictional writing ambition, the dream has not diminished. However, I have decided to combine my writing ambition with my photography passion and adventures. From EDM Events, large-scale rock concerts, local bands finding their way, and more, I have come to the conclusion that involving my writing in these escapades can only lend me more devotion to my career ventures. No trying to impress. No holding back. Just what I see. Me. And my words.

So this is it. My travels through-out Baltimore, Lancaster, Harrisburg, and more. A few photos with paragraphs of descriptive imagery to take you there. To transport you away from that tablet, smart phone, laptop, or old-time desktop, to the party. Right in front of the stage, where the speakers are thumping and the ringing in your ears is drowned by the hard-hitting music. In the middle of the dancing throes of bodies, surrounded by fiery hoops and poi-spinning talent. To the middle of the garage, where the band is nervous, excited, and putting their all into what they have, hoping for more.

This will be the written description of these adventures.


Of course, I have plenty of down time. I can't be out and about all the time -- though I wish. I still waste plenty of time, day to day, on TV, Movies, Books, Games, and more. In addition to my events, reviews will pop up on the latest books or movies in my hands. Horror mostly. Plenty of Dean Koontz. An obscure novel, video game, or TV show here or there. Whatever tickles my fancy.

I hope you readers, whomever you may be, will get as much from this as I will.
Although I'm hesitant to promise anything, I feel that if this works for me as I hope it does, I will include a few of my fictional writings as well. Nothing fantastic. Nothing over-the-top. Nothing I feel I could brag about. But my works. Samples I take some secret pride in. A few of those alternate realities.

Looking forward to seeing you back here.

XOXO, Coryn Rose.
