we're all mad here
Hi, okay, so first, I want to tell you that I drafted this post IN JULY. July, guys. Not only that, but I’ve been compiling my October reads since somewhere around May. Am I a little over the top when it comes to Halloween? YES. You know what else I should start doing in July?…

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…

I saw this tag over on Destiny’s blog @ Howling Libraries, and it sounded like so much fun! As far as I can tell, it comes from HardbackHoarder on YouTube, but if you find the original creator, let me know! And now, onto the tag! What book has been on your shelf the longest? Of…

Character Spotlights are a weekly Wednesday series where I talk about some of the characters from the novels I’m working on, or have already completed. They’ll just be little snippets of their lives so that you can get to know them a little, and hopefully one day read about them in a published book! This…

WOW HI HOW IS JULY HALFWAY OVER??? The end of this second week came up so fast, though that was probably because I was in California for most of it. I went to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, and I cried. A lot. I also read absolutely no books while I was there, but…

This post is going to feel a little like déjà vu because, like The End of Bookstore Boys, I promise you there is a Thursday Thousand story at the end of this, but my introduction is a little bit longer than normal. Thursday This is, by far, a much crazier idea than finishing bookstore boys…

Recently, someone asked me if I had a place on my blog where all of my current projects were featured, and I was like, yes, it’s right over–oh dear lord that’s old. A little over a year old, actually, so here we are, back again with a current projects post, third edition! If, for some…

I’ve been seeing a lot of quarterly check-ins lately for everyone’s 2019 goals, and I thought it’d be fun to look back at my own and see how I’m doing, as well. In my 2019 Goals post, I listed three different categories: fitness, reading, writing. First up: fitness! I have two goals for 2019–successfully do…

Welcome to the Thursday Thousand! Every week, on Thor’s Day, I will be posting a short story (hopefully) written in advance. The only parameter is that it be, at minimum, 1000 words long. It can be any genre, any length beyond that, and even contain mild cliffhangers! Why? Because some of these will turn into…
