Joshua Benson

I am currently a full-time graduate student at Central Michigan University, working on my master's degree in literature with a specialization in children and young adult literature. When I'm not working on articles for Suite101, I am working on my Master's thesis, provisionally entitled "'He Called Me Carrots': A Study of Red-Headed Characters in Literature for Children." I enjoy writing about literature in a variety of different categories, ranging from children's fantasy to American (post)modernism to Biblical and ancient mythology.
