The Cynical Critic

The creator and author of “The Cynical Critic” is full time college student and published author, Josh Kraus. When Josh isn’t spending time working on “The Cynical Critic,” he enjoys listening to music, playing video games, making movies, and hanging out with his friends.

Josh has has experience as a writer for quite a long time. He maintains two other blogs aside from this one, has had more than one piece of literary work published, and studies film, as well as majors in English at Monroe Community College. Kraus also worked on the Agora, MCCC’s student run newspaper for over a year.

Aside from writing, Kraus considers himself an authority on video games. He has owned every system since the original NES, has played and beaten over hundreds of different games, and has entered numerous tournaments for games such as Super Smash Bros. Melee, Halo 2, and Soul Calibur.

Kraus is also well versed in his tastes of movies and film, in which he has a very critical and high taste for movies. He boasts a large movie collection, and generally feels the need to inject his two sense about movies when ever the subject comes up in conversation. Josh’s friends agree that he can generally give great insight about specific movies, and even describe the in-depth and hidden elements, or points the director was trying to make.

Finally, Josh works at a computer lab, where he sits and writes countless things on the Internet, many of them being of no help to anyone. Apparently, he also enjoys writing in third person, so to appear as if he didn’t really write all of the above things himself.
