Craft, business, and the best advice an indie can get in a book bundle. [Book Review]
To be honest, I don’t even know how I got my hands on this book bundle. As of this writing [in February 2017], I can’t find it available for purchase. That being said, each of the three books in the bundle are available, so I wanted to share my thoughts anyway, in case the writers […]

Don’t you ever say women don’t rock! [Book Review]
This book’s cover drew me in immediately. I mean, look at it, it’s incredible. All the art in the book is done in this same style by artist Miriam Klein Stahl using paper, pencil, and an X-Acto knife. How cool is that? This style carries you through the whole book, and lends a cool vibe […]

2 Things I Learned from 3 Years of Reading Challenges
Happy New Year, everyone! I hope you celebrated with the people you care about most on New Year’s Eve, and recuperated enough on New Year’s Day to feel bright-eyed and bushy-tailed again this morning. What’s on the agenda today? Reading, of course! I was going back through my old blog posts, the ones I managed […]

Lessons from a Plantser: 2016 was a big one!
When this year began, I had a couple of goals in mind. I knew I wanted to grow my readership, publish at least three books, and start some new habits that would help me toward my ultimate goals of being a full-time author with a healthy body and mind. But as we know, even the […]

Just Juliet by Charlotte Reagan [Book Review]
This book cover caught my eye right away. I love the rainbow and I love the obvious depiction of love between two girls. Despite being an out and proud queer, I didn’t read a lot of LGBTQ fiction until I was an adult, so I’m still catching up on everything I feel like I should […]
