Robi Vuokko
Co-chief Editor, Webmaster & Treasurer
An English Philology student from Helsinki with a concerning passion for the arts, and more specifically Jane Austen, all things Tolkien and ancient Greece.
I originally picked up creative writing as a way to sort out my feelings but now I write about anything and everything.
I also enjoy reading, making music and watching anime. I’m often wandering around in bookstores and libraries, listening to some music or a podcast. I also study, though not as frequently.
Minja P.
Co-chief Editor
I enjoy reading, writing, and long walks by the seaside. I mostly write poems for BTSB, but there are a few untold stories in my desk drawer as well. I try to write poetry that plays with language while also conveying emotion. When I’m not scribbling verses in my free time, you’ll probably find me curled up with a book, baking something sweet, or wandering in bookshops and libraries.
Valo Kuisti
Editor & Secretary
An English major with a love for writing and listening to music. I read and write all kinds of stuff, fiction and non-fiction alike. I'm great at having ideas, less great at executing them to completion. Nonetheless I do manage to publish something most of the time.
Aleksi Jakonen
Editor & Webmaster
English major since 2018 (which was… how long ago?!). An ambiverted bookworm, so I'm either curious or exhausted of people. Alternating with too much or too little time on my hands, I make use of what creative energy I have to turn over my palm and pour the hours and the minutes on my keyboard for endless writing, fun sidetracks, and Dungeons & Dragons. Occasionally, I study.

Liisa Harju
An English major attempting to revive my love of writing, one deadline at a time. I have an addiction to buying more used books than I am able to read and strong opinions about Sherlock Holmes. When I am not in the library with a coffee, I can be found in an art museum or at home curating a playlist while watching TV shows that aired before I was born.
Emilia Julmala
Editor
I am an English student who loves a good story. Or maybe I am an English student because I love a good story? I certainly have a track record of owning more books on classic English literature than I have storing solutions. When I am not reading, I am creating my own fictitious words or writing articles for this journal with a certain tongue-in-cheek quality that might imply that I don't have a serious bone in my body. That is not true. A century from now when you dig up my burial spot, you will find a multitude of... grave bones. Hehe.
In my free time I also sew, thrift, and exercise my creativity in ways other than putting words on paper.

Editor
I have always loved to read but only recently found the writer within me. Alongside of those activities, I especially enjoy painting, drawing, and knitting in my free time. Different plants are slowly filling up my apartment. As you can tell, I’m quite the homebody – chilling on my couch watching Pride and Prejudice sounds like a wonderful day to me!
