So I’ve recently been looking around the great internet to find some new blogs to follow and I stumbled across this awesome blog! It’s called The Book Zone (For Boys) and essentially it’s a blog that is filled with books that would seriously appeal to boys. As stated on the blog, it […]
With Christmas only being about one month and 4 days away, it is time to start planning your gifts. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t believe in buying them now but if you want a good book, or good book gifts, it does take time to find them as well […]

So I got another one of these ‘How-To’ books for cars and even though I know a bit about them, I have nowhere near enough knowledge, and time, to deeply read this book and try to figure out what is being said, so I decided that this time, instead of […]

And I just found the trailer for the Shadowhunter TV show and I have to say it looks good. Doesn’t look as good as the movie but it does look pretty decent and I will definitely be checking it out. What do you think? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hNm_OXaNYKs
Excuse me but I guess I can call this a public service announcement or maybe a public service awakening or something! BUT WHO ELSE KNOW ABOUT THE UPCOMING SHADOWHUNTER TV SHOW?! BECAUSE I DID NOT! AND I’M OVER HERE FREAKING OUT!!!!!! Now that I got it out, I’ll compose myself. […]
Just wanted to do a quick update. Yes, I am still reading Shōgun by James Clavell so my ‘currently reading’ is up to date. It is a massive book and with my course load, finding time that you can get through a nice chunk of the book is becoming increasingly […]

Animals could talk and had alliances with the humans, faeries existed, trees, while they weren’t […]

It’s officially a day into November and you know what that means…. It’s officially my favorite month because it means I have a serious motivation to write and an excuse to write too. No, I have never hit the 50,000 word goal, but I proudly hit about 25,000 last […]
Considering the fact I love, hands down, cats, I had to mention this. October 29th is National Cat Day and this really adorable website, cat-opedia.com, which I came across, had a nice little post about it. Click here to view it and also have a look around as there are […]

In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Do you Believe in Magic?.” So today’s Daily Post was asking… “You have been transformed into a mystical being who has the ability to do magic. Describe your new abilities in detail. How will you use your new skills?” Now that is a […]
R.L. Stine never planned to be scary? It’s kind of interesting how horror book writers, while they can write some of the most horrifying material, are actually incredible people and some of them, as we find out with R.L. Stine, didn’t actually mean to write scary material. NPR came out […]
