We're all on a voyage. This one is mine.
I don't think 2023 was what anybody expected. I think that everyone thought 2023 would bring renewal, revival, fresh starts, clean slates, and a breath of new air after the last few years of utter chaos. I think we all dreamed that 2023 would be the year we finally broke our bad habits, stopped letting… Continue reading Here’s to 2024 // Some Thoughts About the New Year
I started doing this in 2021 and decided to continue it last year. I've enjoyed these posts so much that I'm making it an official annual series. I always have such a hard time narrowing down the list to only 10 things, but I actually feel really good about this year's top 10? It's a… Continue reading The Top 10 Things I Consumed in 2023

Depending on how long you've been around, you may or may not know the true depths of my love for the dystopian genre.

As many of you know, I've been reading through the Grishaverse books recently. But you probably don't know how much time I've spent thinking about this idea that stories find us when we need them the most. As I read through the Shadow and Bone trilogy, I wasn't impressed with the writing. However, I still… Continue reading Stories Find Us and We Find Them
One of the most beautiful things about fiction is that it can be whatever the author wants. A writer can craft and create almost anything, as long as they can put it into words.

Technically, my blogoversary was last week, but you get this post today because I completely forgot to write this post on time. *throws confetti* Last year, I did a Q&A.
