Rune Puha, Staff Reporter
Sophomore Rune Puha has always lived in Oregon, starting first from Eugene, before drifting up into Portland at eight, where they’ve grown to quite enjoy the rainy weather.
Since starting La Salle, Rune’s favorite classes include Choir, World History 1, and French, because they love learning facts, and data about past events which can be cross referenced into story ideas.
Rune participates in the Morning Choir, and also started the Creative Writing Club at La Salle. Outside of La Salle, they dabble in violin playing, which they did all throughout middle school, and they write stories creatively.
On the weekends, they’ll spend most of their time collecting facts they need for their stories, reading and annotating books, and staying up late to actually draft story ideas and character information sheets. For vacation, Rune has traveled to California, Texas, and Utah.
After La Salle, Rune hopes to apply for University of Cincinnati and similar schools with well developed programs in Creative Writing, in order to obtain a Ph.D in Creative Writing, and live somewhere out of state.
