About

G. Pacheco is the official portfolio of Guilliean Pacheco. This is a collection of my written works from 1997 to the present, and my stock photography from 2008 to the present. Most of the written pieces are unpublished, were contributions to websites that no longer exist, or got me placed in contests. I’ve also included reviews of albums/songs I’ve listened to, books I’ve read, movies I’ve seen, and shows on the Las Vegas Strip that I’ve had the pleasure of attending that I originally posted on my blog.

My short story, “The Seduction of Francesca Miller,” won third place at the 2002 Modesto Junior College Celebration of the Humanities.

I undertook NaNoWriMo in 2003, but didn’t truly adhere to the confines of the contest. However, I did create what eventually became my online series, “Understudy.” I am in the process of preparing those to be sold via ebook.

I was published in the CSN Coyote Press in 2004 for my article on The Killers.

I undertook the co-production of a virtual TV series called “The Alliance of Destiny” from 2003 to 2006. It combined the fandoms of Harry Potter, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, and Alias into one melting pot of awesomeness.

I created “Seven Sins of the Sisters” as my final creative project for Outlaw Genres: U.S. Third World Women’s Autobiography in 2008. It combined photography and music.

For my final project for Women and Literature I turned in “Little Lady Love: A Moving Storyboard.” I retold the story of “The Bloody Chamber” by Angela Carter through photography and music.

I graduated in 2010 with a B.A. in English and a minor in History from Nevada State College.

I directed the short film “Come Together” for Atomic Cocktail Entertainment. We were one of the top ten finalists for the Las Vegas Review-Journal’s Online Filmmakers’ Contest in 2010. We won a Silver Screen Award at the 2011 Nevada Film Festival in their Short Film competition.

One of my photos was featured on Beauty in Everything in 2011.

My next project is to revise the poetry that I wrote that inspired me to treat writing as more than a hobby, but to treat it as my calling in life. The working title is “Pig on a Curtain: The Delusional Musings of a Teenaged Girl.” I plan to self-publish it in eBook format in 2013.

I also try to get involved with NaBloPoMos and Photo a Day challenges as well, just to keep the creative juices flowing. I plan to do one once every other month, unless something strikes my fancy. I participated in the January 2012 NaBloPoMo; the theme was “beginnings.” In March 2012, I participated in fatmumslim‘s Photo a Day. April was National Poetry Month, so I participated in the month’s NaBloPoMo as well.
