Me, crossposting? Me, not knowing what the hell I'm doing? Yes. Hey, check out my pitches from last Thursday's #SFFpit! It was pretty good. Now I'm writing a synopsis and stuff. What is that? Who knows! Maybe I will, by the end of this. https://ko-fi.com/post/Notes-from-SFFpit--pitches-and-glitches-U7U1BCAZ1
Hello there! Obviously, this whole blogging thing didn't turn out to be something I could follow up on, last year. No surprises there! It sounded great in my head, and I had so many plans for posts beyond just book reviews and updates about my own writing journey...but none of these came to fruition. I… Continue reading 2022 check-in: what’s going on?
Today, I would like to introduce you to one of the first books I've read on Wattpad at the time I signed up. It is an impactful, ridiculous story that got under my skin and I surely won't be able to do justice to it with any type of review here, sadly. But as luck… Continue reading Book Selection – Sean Browning: I Don’t Seem So Bright In A Well-Lit Room
Well, hello! Fancy seeing you here! I decided to write something like this today, because reasons. I started this year with a whole lot of energy and lots of plans, which was kind of a cool feeling, even if part of it was just me overcompensating for the sh*tshow that 2020 was. I launched this… Continue reading Quarterly Check-in (January-March 2021)
a.k.a my first finished read of the year (although I started it in December) Also, the first post in the new category, Book Selection! From time to time, I will write about a book I loved, recently or just in general, and tell you why I think you should check it out. And then maybe… Continue reading Book Selection – Jill Andrews: The Fallen Crow
New Year's resolutions are rubbish. They barely work for me, ever, and although it's an exhilarating and cleansing feeling to come up with them and plan out everything nicely in the first days of January, feeling absolutely certain that I In Fact Will Accomplish All And Even More, the momentum usually dies wheezing and in… Continue reading My Creative Goals for 2021

If you know me as a writer, you know about Skylark. Well, okay. That sounds like a clever starting sentence, but I should be honest. Because "knowing me as a writer" is a feat in itself already — as I have mentioned before, I've not been defining myself as an author for a very long… Continue reading So what’s the deal with Skylark in the Fog?
Does that sound like good enough title? Maybe even "savage"? Is it suggesting some spicy discourse I'm gonna have in this post? A passionate declaration? I hope so! Because none of that is true! But let's jump into it, it is a meaty subject. The general consensus Getting real for a minute, this is all… Continue reading In defense of Wattpad
...is a phrase I didn't think I was going to use to describe myself a year or so ago. Now, don't get me wrong — I always wrote. There was always a project (well, most of the time it was Skylark) or an idea I was working on with the vague promise to myself that… Continue reading Starting out as a writer
