Our
Name
The "The Banned Realms," name was inspired by the enchanting worlds found within fiction, fantasy, and dystopian literature. The term "realms" captures the essence of these diverse landscapes, inviting you to explore the depths of imagination. Additionally, our abbreviation, TBR, resonates with avid readers as it stands for "to be read," adding a playful nod to the community we cherish. Join us as we journey through these captivating realms of storytelling!
Hi, I’m T.B.R.'s writer and researcher—a college student, writer, and advocate for the power of stories. I’m passionate about exploring the impact of literature, especially banned books, and sharing why these stories matter. Through my writing, I hope to spark conversations about censorship, creativity, and the freedom to read.
When I’m not researching or writing about challenged books, I’m dreaming up my own worlds—ones filled with adventure, magic, and characters who refuse to be silenced. One day, I hope to bring a fantasy novel of my own into the world.
Beyond books, I love spending time with my dogs, Thor and Loki, and imagining my future home in Miami or New York (I can't decide). I believe stories have the power to challenge us, inspire us, and remind us of what it means to be human.
