Buffy Scholar/Critic
Peg Aloi teaches creative writing and film studies, and writes film criticism for The Boston Phoenix, as well as a regular media column for witchvox.com. Her poetry has been published in Obsidian magazine and on gothic.net, and her first published short story somehow became a chapter in some stranger's doctoral dissertation somewhere in New Jersey. Last summer she won the Gorseth Kernow's Morris Cup for a poem about an ancient Cornish landmark she’s never actually visited. In October 2002 she attended the first-ever academic conference devoted to Buffy the Vampire Slayer, in Norwich, England. [Biography from Seven Seasons of Buffy.]
