The Vision You’ll Find Here
I value clarity over jargon, examples over empty claims, and curiosity over certainty.
This site only exists to examine how rhetorical theory operates in the modern world, not as some distant academic discipline, but as a living and breathing system continuously shaping how we argue in comment sections, tell stories through digital media, and construct our identities online.
I’m especially fascinated by the way rhetoric moves through stories, media, and online communities. And these pages address rhetoric in the digital age through essays, reviews, creative work, and visual projects.
Here, rhetoric is treated as practice rather than flair performance. Essays and reflections break down complex theoretical ideas into language you actually encounter every day, without flattening their depth. Whether we’re looking at a video game, a narrative essay, or a plain old webpage, the goal remains the same:
Figuring out how persuasion works and what it asks of us.
Rather than telling you what to think, I invite you to pay closer attention to how meaning already circulates around you. If you’re interested in understanding how rhetoric adapts to the digital age and how you can use it more consciously and responsibly, this space was built with you in mind.
Whether you’re here out of curiosity, confusion, or sheer academic survival instinct, there’s a reason rhetoric keeps resurfacing in everyday digital life.
Author Biography
*Record scratch* Yep, that’s me. I bet you’re wondering how I ended up stuck in a website.
My name is Cheyenne Newfield and I’m a writer with a Bachelor of Art in English, specializing in rhetorical theory. Born in Bay Shore, New York and raised in New Jersey, my work is continuously shaped by obnoxious questions of place, experience, memory, and identity crisis, particularly after having lived and started over in many new environments.
My work aims to build both craft and confidence across multiple writing and media platforms.
I write a myriad of fiction and screenplays, drawing from a background in film to blend introspective character studies with visual storytelling. I am especially interested in digital rhetoric, web-based writing, and how authors construct cyber-identity across all platforms.
Outside of writing, not that it matters to the lot of you, I practice tarot as a creative and reflective tool to guide my stupid decisions. The cards tell me you will read my blog.
My long-term goal is to publish fiction and continue developing diverse work across multiple writing and media spaces.
