we're all mad here
When I was considering posts for pride, I was originally going to scrap this one for later, but, in all honesty, fanfiction is what first opened up the queer community for me, so it feels like the perfect discussion post to kick off celebrations. I’m going to talk a bunch about my history with fanfiction…

This was another difficult month mentally, so my reading & writing suffered for the first half, and then I definitely felt an uptick in mood about halfway through the month, so that’s probably reflected below, but still. This whole being a person thing is just really hard sometimes. Mini Book Reviews Legend🌈 LGBTQPIA+ characters🔥 BIPOC…

Well, this month proved to be fortuitous in a lot of different ways. I read a heck ton of books, and out of 15, 11 of them were five star reads, which I think is pretty insane. I actually accomplished my OWLs TBR, I started rereading a book I’ve been trying to for two years…

It’s that time of year! Instead of checking in halfway through the year, I like to do two quarterly check-ins and a final wrap-up at the end of the year to look at how I’m doing on the goals that I set in January. I’ve found that this, for me, at least, is a super…

Last month, I finished my book! I’ve got to say, I’m pretty freaking proud of myself, and not just for the normal reasons. I’ve talked about this a little on the blog, but not for a while, and not in any real detail, so here goes. A little over three years ago, in December 2016,…

Well, this month was a lot. I’m not going to get into it. We’re all going through the same insanity right now, and I’m just spending every day tired and stressed out, so reading has been a safe haven for me right now, as I’m sure it has for many other people. However, it was…

Well, February was just not my month. I struggled with reading big time, and after an entire week of reading literally nothing, I decided to binge the entire Heartstopper series, which is even worse since I’ve already read everything, so here I am, ignoring my problems in favor of gay boys. I feel like that’s…

This month has definitely been an adjustment, and I’m only just now beginning to figure out a reading & writing schedule that works for me, but we’re getting there! That meant I read less books and didn’t write at all this month, but I think I made up for it by loving every single book…

Happy New Year! 2019 was a wild ride, and I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one that feels that way. 2020 is already shaping up to be pretty amazing (I start my new job tomorrow!), but US politics is sure to make everything else fairly chaotic. However, I was published again in 2019! Z…

Look, I know that everyone did that tag for goals check-in during the summer, but I was on a quarterly system, and I’m sticking with it. I also kind of like checking in every four months instead of halfway through the year because it feels a little less stressful. Back in January, I outlined three…
