Biggest clutch EVER securing friends who, when I say "I don't want to *insert social activity", will accept it and not make me feel like I need a good excuse
Like actually thank God
In the planning document of a future novel, I simply have the link to a Wikipedia article about the western jackdaw copy pasted in π€·πΌ
For the first half of the book I'm reading I was thinking 'get her (MC) some ADHD medication IMMEDIATELY'

Cozied too close to the sun while reading A Pirate's Life for Tea π₯² lmao I got so comfy I started getting nostalgic for my grandma who used to read me books, which hasn't happened in a WHILE
Excellent book, excellent cozy vibes - almost TOO cozy, but I think that's a good thing!

I'm like 65% through The Lost Apothecary and I,,,, I have theories and oh boy did this very suddenly get high stakes. But I'm invested! The narrator on this audio book is incredible and I'm sooo fascinated to know what happens next

Reminder to comment on that art post or fanfic, and drop a review of that book. Telling creatives what you think, even if itβs just a one line sentence, truly does make a difference! And I donβt just mean βengagementβ. I mean it will make their day. Tell someone when you love their work π€
I made cinnamon roll bread instead of just cinnamon rolls and I think it was the best idea I ever had (I could've let it cool and set a bit more but I was hungry so)
Being perceived π
I hit 30k words on this draft π₯³ that's only 10k behind where I wanted to be lmao
January reading: I finished three books and loved them all! π
January writing: I missed a good few days, but it was a wacky month so I'll take some grace for that lol π
Two chapters in my WIP outline are currently described as 'visions and stuff' and 'like therapy or smth idk'
So that's how January writing has gone
Finishing a scene and moving on thinking 'that's going to be so much better once I change everything about it'
π The bones are there! I swear it
Writing a first draft and 'seeing the potential' the same way those house renovation series show rich people fixer upper houses
Oh the EVILEST idea just arrived in my brain writing book 3. Oh yes. Oh yes this will be lovely I think. This is what returning to the muse gets us π₯° thank you muse
(the muse is my 14 hour long Taylor Swift playlist)
Not enough people know how hard I work on making the perfect playlist names in Spotify π

I held onto that letter for the longest time, but we moved when I was 10 and then our house got super chaotic when I was in highschool and I have no idea where it ended up :( but I hope she knows that it meant the world to me. Anyways. That's all. #booksky π
When I was like 8 I wrote a letter to the author Holly Black saying how much I loved the Spiderwick Chronicles and asking if she'd ever write more about the kids in those books AND SHE REPLIED and answered the specific questions I asked and that was one of the many moments I fell in love with booksπ
:0 I hadn't heard of that one yet, I'll have to add it to the TBR!
Finally read Legends and Lattes, and I loved it!! Cozy fantasy really is something special #booksky π
