Hello there! Thanks for checking out my blog. Fun Facts: • I'm in my early 30s! • Writing is a HUGE part of my life—I'd be lost if I couldn't express myself through words. (Growing up, books were a source of comfort for me. I’m still drawn to bookshelves & read as often as I can.) • My other hobbies include knitting, gaming, & coloring. • I have two "Golden Girl" Retrievers, Charlie (4) & Lily (almost a year old! How time flies). My family, friends, dogs, & fiancé Rory are all very important in my life. I honestly wouldn't trade them for anything! Happy blogging, everyone! 💙

Amy and her friends are busy trying to destroy the remaining Twelve–the vampires who were death row inmates, who were supposed to be soldier’s for the military–an experiment that went horribly wrong.

The Passage

Thirty-two minutes. All it took was thirty-two minutes for one world to die, and for another to be born.

shushing snow

shushing snow flutters through the aspens,tiny as pinpricks, light as feathers of blue jays,thick as a cloud of mistheavy as a boulder on the mountaintop white as the ivory keys on the klavierwhite as the incisor in the dirt, covering the earth like a wooly blanket, stark against the darkness coming on,the darkness rolling throughContinue reading “shushing snow”

Brendan Wolf

So you’ll become like your hero, Alexander Supertramp, I think, closing Brendan Wolf.

Just finished reading this lovely book by Brian Malloy, and now I’m kinda bummed about it. I’ll miss Brendan & his interesting life.

The Perfection

I watched this film on Halloween night. I was actually pleasantly surprised by how good it was, considering I knew nothing of the actual plot. Elizabeth (Lizzie) and Charlotte are both prodigies of an elite music school, one where young girls are trained to become amazing musicians. When they meet in Shanghai, Charlotte gushes overContinue reading “The Perfection”
