(Former) devoted book kid and (aspiring) writer, trying to rekindle my love of all things wordy. I’ll be sharing my #BookJourney as I work my way through my hefty TBR list and my #WritingJourney as I try to get my many WIPs down on paper.
Had a lovely long dog walk through the post-story countryside today. It was a bit more adventurous than we expected! #CountryWalks #NaturePics

The latest in the #BookJourney has such a fun collection of chapter names. Big fan of chapter one aka ‘The Best Way To Start a Book’. Would that we all had that self confidence #TheGreatWhen #Bookshelfpics

Book #1 of my 2026 #BookJourney is complete! Thought I’d start with my secret Santa gift - #TheGirlsWhoDisappeared by #ClaireDouglas. I do love a good mystery to start off the year.

Last time me and my family watched traitors I said it would be interesting if there was some way of doing it so we didn’t know who the traitors are (see how obvious it is when we’re working on the same info as the faithfuls). I CANT BELIEVE THEYRE DOING IT!

For all that it’s a sad story, there is something very lovely in the fact that a woman who wa seemingly very lonely for much of her life was so loved at its end that her friends (and their husbands) refused to stop digging until they found out the truth of what happened to her.
Book #24 of the #BookJourney (and last of the year) is Hallie Rubenhold’s #StoryOfAMurderer the true story of the murder of Belle Elmore. #BookRecs #NonFiction.

Book #24 of the #BookJourney is complete! This’ll be the last book of the year and the journey will reset in 2026, happy I could get it up to 2 books a month - even if that number would make 14 yr old me cry in shame. I’ll be back tomorrow with the proper update on book #24.

Accidentally started a post-Christmas deep sort of the bedroom. I thought ‘oh if I switch my nail varnish from their box into this bag I’ll save some room’ and now I am neck deep in the cupboards rearranging art supplies 😅

Excited to add a few new books to my reading list over Christmas! No idea which one I’m going to start first.

It’s possible that I talk about my love of Rituals too much…Santa has overheard.

Last November I set myself the goal of having the first draft of my current wip novel completed by the end of this year - sadly that hasn’t happened. That said we are with 3 chapters of the end and with five(ish) days until the year officially ends, let’s see how close we can get! #WritingJourney

I’ll never be on bake off but I think I managed to claw it back! The icing was too dense for the cake, any attempts at spreading it just wound up with bits of cake tearing off.
