Source. This post is short, as I have little to say, but I wish to say it all the same. Christmas seems to hold more meaning for me with each passing year. More traditions are founded and looked forward to. More memories are made and laughed over, most eventually lost to the folds of time. … Continue reading God bless us, every one
Review & thoughts | The Secret Garden (2020)
Source. When I first heard this movie was coming out, I was so excited. The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett is one of my all-time favorite books, and I'd never seen a film adaption before—in fact, the thought of looking for one had never even occurred to me. I mean, the book is pretty … Continue reading Review & thoughts | The Secret Garden (2020)
Foxhunt update #1
Cover not final. Hey, all! I just thought I'd give a brief update on the progress of Foxhunt, my current WIP. Things have been going moderately well; so far, my outline hasn't been giving me any major problems. I think I'm taking things slowly enough that I'm able to identify issues in my outline before … Continue reading Foxhunt update #1
My top eight OTPs
Now, disclaimer: this list changes a lot. xD But I thought I'd do one of these OTP posts every once in a while, as shipping is kind of a big part of what kind of fangirl I am, and...I dunno, it sounded fun. 😛 Ten years later, I can look back on this post and … Continue reading My top eight OTPs
Some recent art
Basically, what I've learned is that you can be an author and an artist, but you can't be productive at both at the same time. -_- I've been focusing a lot more on writing than on drawing as of late, and as a result, my drawing output has plummeted. So, not much to show here. … Continue reading Some recent art
The Narnia tag
Okay... *takes a deep breath* This is my first time doing a blog tag, so bear with me here. I'm nervous, but more excited. (This tag was created by S. J. Barnard, and I was tagged by the lovely Maya Joelle.) Not gonna lie, it's been a good while since I read any of the … Continue reading The Narnia tag
San Antonio, November 2020
We got away last weekend! Finally! Ugh, man, I really needed that vacation, let me tell you. It'd been I don't even know how long since we'd taken a real road trip. We've been to San Antonio many times, and usually our drives there revolve around a specific purpose or destination. Not so with this … Continue reading San Antonio, November 2020
Fleck Blackstar: The Black Star of Kingston
Fleck Blackstar wades back towards the burning fleet. S. D. Smith's books are always full of memorable lines and quotable truths. But in the middle of The Black Star of Kingston, which I reread recently, I came across a line in particular that I had to really think about to understand its meaning. Here it … Continue reading Fleck Blackstar: The Black Star of Kingston
Inktober part deux
I think I kinda stepped up my game for this second half of Inktober, so that's good. Sometimes it just takes a while for inspiration to strike. (Once again, however, I did miss a couple days...) Day #17: Thomas Jefferson (I think). Okay, so his hair is a bit flat. It was fun. XD Based … Continue reading Inktober part deux
College, Green Ember, and Bella Italia
Been a bit since I last posted; sorry about that. But there'll be another Inktober post coming up soon! Well, this post is bound to be ramble-y. Here we go. Phew. I've officially submitted my college application—including having an in-person totally-not-scary interview with the provost—and am currently waiting to see whether or not I've been … Continue reading College, Green Ember, and Bella Italia
