Author Bio

Alexander E. Hanley is a sophomore Classics and Anthropology double major with a Latin minor. He funnels most of his time into researching how to achieve world love and peace, which he thinks feels a lot like drinking a crisp icy coke when he’s thirsty. He spends the rest of his time writing (with considerable angst) about unreachable charismatic men and hoping Ananke will do him right.
