Page Count: 224 Rating: 4/5 REVIEW I enjoyed Atwood’s writing style, and her take on the myth was definitely interesting to read. Though I may not necessarily follow her interpretation of Penelope and the maids, it was very enjoyable to read and I found it fun to ponder – especially near the end where itContinue reading “The Penelopiad by Margaret Atwood”

I am Rebel by Ross Montgomery
Page Count: 298 Rating: 5/5 REVIEW This was such a heart-warming story that I read it all in one sitting. Rebel is such a good dog and I love the lengths he will go to to save his boy, even if it puts him so far away from home and into so many dangers. HeContinue reading “I am Rebel by Ross Montgomery”
The Garden Of Time by JG Ballard
Page Count: 9 Rating: 5/5 REVIEW It was only nine pages long but it deserved a review. The prose was beautiful and, even though short, he still managed to create a build up of events to slowly reveal a haunting conclusion. The incremental progression and then a swift twist of what was truly being heldContinue reading “The Garden Of Time by JG Ballard”
Origin by Dan Brown
I love all of the Dan Brown Robert Langdon books and this one was no exception. The quest, the characters, the twists and turns, I loved them all and I couldn’t put the book down.

There is also the theme of self fulfilling prophecies such as bad things will happen if you expect them andContinue reading “Legends and Lattes by Travis Baldree”
NaNoWriMo? Tried but didn’t ‘succeed’
So this blog post is going out incredibly late due to the chaos that is Christmas and Retail – but I tried out the NaNoWriMo challenge in the month of November and didn’t succeed in my goal. Will I ever reach the goal of finishing my book? And what will I do if I get there?

I described myself as a simple man. But Debbie was anything but a simple woman.
Writing streak on 4TheWords
4thewords is a website that has monster battles for writing streaks and is apparently the only way that I can motivate myself to write nowadays 😅
Organising my desk space and a chat about novels, studies, and dreams
So a lot has changed since I last made a video – and even in the time it took me to upload this video. But my desk needed sorting as I was getting claustrophobic with the amount of stuff on there. And here’s to being creators!
Daily Log 01/02/2022 – Notion editing & Music Theory note-taking
Just a little timelapse log of my Tuesday where I was feeling pretty productive and got a fair amount done. Done a bit of introspection and realised that I started this channel to try and hold myself accountable so that what’s what I’m going to do. So if it does its job, then future logsContinue reading “Daily Log 01/02/2022 – Notion editing & Music Theory note-taking”
