UM. IT'S ALMOST 2019. Say WHAT???? Honestly, I’m excited for 2019 and all the opportunities it will bring. But . . . at the same time, 2018 was a pretty good year. Let’s delve a little deeper, shall we? This post will be split into three categories: fandoms, writing, and life. First up, we have . . . Otherwise known as “When I...Read More

It’s two days until Christmas! *scurries around buying last-minute gifts* How is it already almost the end of the year? It just feels . . . weird. I mean, weirder than normal. For some reason, this December hasn’t felt very Christmas-y. Most years, you can feel the Christmas in the air. Deserts are made every other day inside the house, and outside, Christmas...Read More

Happy Sunday! Since exams are killing me right now, I decided to do a tag! A couple weeks ago, back in NaNo, Jenna tagged me for the Voted Most Likely Tag! It looked super fun, so I decided to do it (obviously). And here we are! Let’s do this. Rules: 1. Thank the blogger who tagged you. Thank you so much, Jenna, for...Read More

Happy December! yes, I am perfectly aware that it is December 9th. Shhhh I HAVE EXCITING NEWS. I. WON. NANOWRIMO. NaNoWriMo 2018 Results Total words written: 50,250 HOW DID THAT HAPPEN? Honestly, though, I have never written anything that is even close to 50k. The longest story I had ever written (before this) was the first draft of the Inhumans trilogy, which is...Read More

Happy Friday! Can anyone believe that NaNo is over TODAY??? It feels surreal, honestly. But first, before this crazy month wraps up, I present to you: AESTHETICS AND PLAYLISTS. I genuinely don’t know how to do this. I haven’t had any time to make actual, picture aesthetics. So . . . words will abound! THE GENERAL STORY: shadows // rebellion // kings //...Read More

Happy Friday! If you’re reading this, congratulations! You’re surviving NaNoWriMo! Just a little over a week (I think.... I’ve lost track of time at this point) and the challenge will be over! But before you get back to writing, I thought I might share with you a little bit about my side characters and setting of The Silver Sword... also, whoever can spot...Read More

Happy Friday, everyone! We’re almost halfway through NaNo. Hard to believe. This month has been lasting forever! But here’s your Friday procrastination post that’s covering a rather fun topic: Villains. Introduce the main antagonist of your book! In my story, the villain (although he doesn’t have a huge part to play yet) is the Steward of Kianda’s throne, Lorcan. The Steward of the...Read More

Happy Friday, everyone, and welcome back for Round 2 of Julian’s Shared WIP Tag! I hope NaNoWriMo is treating you all well thus far. We’re a little more than a week in, guys! It’s hard to believe it’s been about ten days already. You can do it! But, I’m assuming you’re procrastinating from your novel right now, so I’ll cut this intro short...Read More

Happy Friday, everyone, and welcome to National Novel Writing Month, otherwise known as NaNoWriMo! (For those of you unaware, this is a month-long challenge designed to make writers go insane and lose lots of sleep while trying to cram out 50,000 words in one month. Why everyone loves it, I have no idea. XD) During NaNo, Julian over at Saver of Memories is...Read More

GUYS. NANOWRIMO IS IN FOUR DAYS. I AM NOT READY. *existensial crisis* But, before we go diving into all the NaNo craziness, let’s take a look at the craziness of October.... Wow. October has been INSANELY busy. This has been, by far, the busiest month of the year. I went on my first ever college visit. I AM NOT READY YET. But the...Read More

So, you may have noticed that there has been some changes around here. Again. *facepalm* I’m pretty sure that in an older post, I said that I was not going to change my blog design anymore. Well, that didn’t happen. XD But for anyone planning on changing their blog design in the future, here’s a couple things I learned that might make it...Read More

Happy Sunday! So, I was planning an actual blog post for this week (don’t worry - it’ll go up next week!), but on Monday, I saw that Liv had posted the next segment in The Language of Worlds Linkup!! And then later that day Christine posted the questions for her NEW linkup Know the Novel! Naturally, I had to join in. And here...Read More
