I’ve read a lot this month, and it’s proven to be rewarding and enjoyable. Here are my reviews: American Gods (American Gods #1) by Neil Gaiman My rating: 2 of 5 stars I had to read this fantasy fiction for uni; it isn’t something I would naturally gravitate towards. I tend not to read things … Continue reading July 2021 Reading

a life between busyness and dreams
I have this thought, something I want to blog about today, but I’m struggling to pin it down. Maybe I haven’t allowed the sentiment to fully settle in my own mind. It’s there, whirling around but not quite taking shape. How to mold it. How to not be afraid of what it becomes. I’m listening … Continue reading a life between busyness and dreams
June 2021 Reading
I've been slowly making my way through Anna Karenina (Leo Tolstoy) for months now, as am I now trying to get through books for uni. All in all, not my biggest reading month but hopefully leading to something good. (Also a little reminder that I will be sending out my first newsletter tomorrow! If you … Continue reading June 2021 Reading
Something new is on the way…
If you read my second last post, you’ll know that I’ve decided to leave Instagram, but before I took the leap I wanted to finalise a new a project, something that excites me in a way social media doesn’t. And that’s a newsletter! For the past month I’ve been putting together a newsletter and it’s … Continue reading Something new is on the way…
Leaving Social Media (for good)
I like how my blog showcases patterns in my life; different interests, different inspirations. Minimalism, running (perhaps this isn’t mentioned as much as it should be), social media (or lack thereof). They seem to be in rotation. While writing and reading are constant on this blog, and the glory to God behind everything I write, … Continue reading Leaving Social Media (for good)
May 2021 Reading
The beginning of May did not offer much hope for reading. I felt like I was barely scraping through, hardly picking up anything. But something changed and it ended up being a very big month for reading, which I loved. It really is such a big part of my life. It’s one of the main … Continue reading May 2021 Reading
A Spark of Creativity
The classic combination of a chai tea and the promise of a new blog post. I love this feeling. The possibilities, the inspiration. Or maybe, more accurately, the want of inspiration. The creativity that comes when you begin to write. I only have one assignment left and then I’ll be free of trimester one, and … Continue reading A Spark of Creativity
April 2021 Reading
I read a lot in April because I had my wisdom teeth taken out and I chose to spend the following week reading! It was a good time, and now I’m very ahead on my goal to read 52 books this year. There are lots of books this month, so if you’re still reading by … Continue reading April 2021 Reading
March 2021 Reading
This was a slow month. I finished three books but haven’t made too much progress with what I’m currently reading, either. But that’s okay! Here’s what I read. Breath (James Nestor) I gave 4 of 5 stars. This was an entertaining yet factual book exploring the science and history behind breathing; both the good and … Continue reading March 2021 Reading
The Parts that Hurt / Short Story
The following short story is one I wrote for a class last trimester at uni. It was both the hardest and easiest thing I've ever written. Before I even started the class I knew I wanted to write something along these lines, but I didn't know whether that would take the form of a novel … Continue reading The Parts that Hurt / Short Story
