I did this post a few years ago, trying to explain my feelings on December. They’re many and complicated and sometimes contradictory, but I’m still really proud of this post, and long though it is, figured it deserves a second look. It gives a decent-ish summation of my world view, so there’s that. Plus, you … More Magic and Loss: Or Elfhood, Revisited
It’s time to see what I’ve been up to whilst I was Nano-ing last month! No matter the time of year, this is a great read that combines family and the supernatural. As always, Raina Telgemeier weaves interesting plot with relatable characters. Read my full review for Books by Violet here! Also for Books … More Free fic, reviews, and all that fun stuff
Okay, okay, I’ll do another post today for those who aren’t really into the whole horror scene… Believe it or not, I also write less intense, more nostalgic stuff. Although I don’t know if anything of mine is out and out fluffy, I do flirt with chick lit and romance from time to time. Yeah, … More Holly and Ivy or Sometimes I Write Cute Stuff
It’s that time of year! By which I mean Krampusnacht. And if you don’t know who Krampus is…SIGH. Here: This will help. It really pains me that there are so many amazing Christmas monsters out there (No, seriously, you have no idea. There are loads) and yet people really aren’t aware of it. While I’m … More Happy Krampusnacht!
I really considered how to do SJ reads this month. I have an addiction to Christmas/holiday fiction, and there are a TON of great titles out there. My notes are also scattered everywhere, so I really need to re-sort and dig through. I decided to keep with the unintentional theme to finish out the … More SJ Reads: Marvel Zombies Christmas Carol
This is another of those so obvious I probably shouldn’t include it, but it’s well-known for a reason. Confession: I haven’t made it all the way through this one. I’ve had to take it in spurts, and that seems to be the case for most people I know who own it. It’s definitely one … More SJ Reads: The Artist’s Way
Guess where I went the other day? Yep, along with Nano, I decided I needed to get back to my critique club. Which, if you know me, means I hang out at the cat cafe in a lame attempt to write while I really commune with felines. Or something. Anywho, let’s see what … More Caturday Critique Club: NanoWriMo Edition
Just a note to say that I am incredibly lucky to have an amazing group of readers. I’m thankful for a lot of things this time of year – family, friends, where I’m at in life, being able to hear music, being able to enjoy art, and being able to enjoy enormous stories. Truly, though, … More Happy Thanksgiving!
So, I had hoped to pre-write content for this month like I usually do, but things obviously have gotten the better of me a bit, and then….Nano happened. Yep. I don’t think I’ve discussed this on here before, but around my other media I’ve been known as not being a huge fan of Nanowrimo for … More Where I’ve Been: or the moment Nano finally won me over.
I know, I need to get caught up, though this time I do have a decent-ish excuse. Writing has taken me away a bit this month, but I’ll get to that on another post. In the meantime, here’s what I’ve been up to: This tends to be one of my stress/comfort reading series, and it’s … More New Reviews! #manga #comics
