Grace Shafer is a junior at Robinson and the Arts and Entertianment editor of the Knight Writers. This is her third year on staff. While she is in newspaper, Shafer likes to spend her time thrifting, read, writing, listening to music, vintage shopping and watching films. Some of her favorite artists at the current moment are Kendrick Lamar, Lana Del Ray and Elliott Smith. "I love them because they replicated the fantasies in your head that you'd never see in real life in their music," Shafer said. At the moment she enjoys films such as "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind," "The Virgin Suicide" and "Ratatouille." Her favorite directors currently are Sofia Coppola and Stanley Kubrick. Shafer first started in newspaper because of her love of writing, connecting to her love for all things film. "I want to be in newspaper because I've always loved writing and thought it would be cool way to have people see my writing," Shafer said. She is most looking forward to learning more about newspaper and having fun with her friends.  With her interest in writing, her love of film and this ability to work with others, Shafer aspires to be a film director in her future. She has always had a passion for the industry, and it one of the two Robinson film club presidents. "Films have always been very special to me and making them just sounds like a dream," Shafer said. Shafer describes herself to be a silly person, she loves the adventure of going thrifting and out and about with her friends. As a very creative person, Shafer's love for fashion is very huge and takes a huge part in her life. "I love fashion. I'm always thinking about my next outfit," Shafer said.

This is Senior Ashlyn Miller's third year on the Knight Writers staff and her second year in an editorial position, previously serving as the Sports Editor and now as a Co-Editor-in-Chief. Originally, Miller did not intend to take the class, describing her random placement as "luck." She was assigned to Newspaper in her sophomore year and has remained in it since. "I think I got into Newspaper by luck," Miller said. "It just happened, and I loved it. I really enjoy the creative freedoms that it gives me." Miller plays many roles within the Robinson community. She is not only a part of the Knight Writers, but is also involved in various clubs and sports, including ROTC, where she serves as an Executive Officer; Girl Up, where she is the President and Founder; Student 2 Student, where she is an Officer; KOSB (Keeping Our School Beautiful), where she is an Officer; the Swim team; and the Orchestra and Band. If that wasn't enough to illustrate how busy Miller keeps herself, she also finds time to pursue her own hobbies outside of Robinson, such as painting, other artistic activities, sports photography and sports in general. "I love fall because I love watching and keeping up with college football. I don't really care about the NFL, I just feel like college has so much more passion behind it," Miller said. "My family my whole life has bonded over Alabama football in particular, which nobody at school really gets. That just makes it feel more special to me and my family." As Co-Editor-in-Chief, Miller has many goals for the Knight Writers, which include not only accumulating awards but also helping all staffers learn and improve their journalistic skills. Last school year was a victory for the Knight Writers, as they earned a Sunshine Standout for their print publication as well as an All-Florida for both their online and print editions. Miller has high hopes, aiming to win a Pacemaker, the highest achievement a publication can achieve. With it being her senior year, Miller hopes to attend the University of Florida to pursue an undergraduate degree in nursing before attending Physician Assistant school. "I would like to work mainly in women's health. Part of what makes me love journalism so much is the idea of advocacy. I hope to be an advocate for women in their time of need now, and in the future," Miller said.
