About Ella Knight

Ella Knight is a SNHU Game Art and Development high honors graduate who began her gaming journey at the young age of 3. Her ion for gaming grew as the years went by as did her love for writing. She started writing articles when she was 20, streaming video games at 27, and published her first book at 33. Once she obtained her Bachelor's degree in 2022, she decided she wanted to combine her two worlds of writing and gaming. With over 25 years of experience in both fields, she now lends her expertise to fellow gamers. She is also working towards her MFA in Creative Writing with a focus on Professional Writing.
 

Industry Focus

Ella has been a professional writer since 2011. She has written for various sites on topics including but not limited to video games, movies, relationships, breaking news, and entertainment. Lately, Ella lends her expertise through writing gaming features and guides for ScreenRant. 
 

Favorite Media

Ella has a love for all media, but especially video games. Her favorite games are those that are choice-based, extra points if it's horror. While she is a variety gamer, she particularly loves horror and FPS games. She likes fully immersing herself in a game, acting as if she’s teleporting into a new life. A few of her favorites include Thief, Until Dawn, The Walking Dead Series, Outlast, Borderlands 2, and Alan Wake 2.
