Weekend of Words: Inside A Cozy Book Retreat
There’s something magical about stepping away from the noise of everyday life and sinking into stories — both the ones we read and the ones we write. I recently went on a book retreat with a group of friends and it was everything a I could dream of:…

There’s something magical about stepping away from the noise of everyday life and sinking into stories — both the ones we read and the ones we write. I recently went on a book retreat with a group of friends and it was everything a I could dream of: reading, crafting, bookstore adventures, chatting, and even a little writing time for me as I dove back into editing my story.

I forgot how LOUD the world is! Recently, I got new PURPLE 💜 hearing aids after a year with a barely-working 2013 backup pair. Now it feels like I hear everything - to the annoyance of my kids. This blog is an update after having them for several months. Do you use hearing devices?
The World is Loud Again
It always surprises me when I can hear. Really hear. A couple of months ago, I got new hearing aids — and yes, they’re purple! 💜 But let me back up a bit. About a year ago, I lost one of my hearing aids. I searched everywhere for nearly six months. I deep-cleaned the house, retraced my steps, checked under the seats in my car, even looked in places I’d already cleared three times over.

CHAMP. From Whom the Belle Tolls is a rare book that burrows into you and refuses to let go. It's big and complex, beautiful and heart-wrenching, healing, full of humor, sass, and love. It's joined my annual re-reads list.
⭐ 5 stars = easily.
💀 Hellp Desk scenes = perfection.
💜 Lily + Bel = swoon.

The Hellp Desk I Never Knew I Needed
CHAMP. That’s It. But really, what I feel about this book can’t be summed up in one word. It took me completely by surprise—in the best way. “Our first thoughts about a situation are seldom what we actually believe. They are what we have been conditioned to think, or sometimes they truly are random spits of consciousness. But our second thoughts, ah, that is where we are.

I’m curious… I’ve done livestreams on TikTok (writing and reading sprints) but with the ban, I am working to move to YouTube; however, what kind of livestreams happen there? What do people like? #youtube #livestream

Let's talk about books I've read and loved written by POC. I'm starting with "The Right Sign" by Nia Arthurs, which is a romcom about a Deaf woman’s rule about dating hearing men is tested when she fake dates a billionaire who learns sign language for her. #booksky
