The Never-Ending TBR Pile
Let’s be honest—my to-be-read (TBR) pile is out of control. It’s teetering on the edge of my nightstand, spilling over onto the floor, and threatening to take over my entire living space. And yet, I can’t stop buying more books. I know, I know, I should probably finish the ones I have first, but where’s the fun in that? There’s something about the promise of a new book that’s just too tempting to resist.

The Lions of Al-Rassan
Every once in a while, we readers and writers cross paths with a tale so…wonderous, it reminds us why we are obsessed with these paper, glue, and ink sandwiches. A tale that makes our skin tingle, sweeps us off our feet to a faraway land, all while forcing us to change our perspective of this big blue marble we call Earth.

The First Chapter of My New Book "Substack Mastery" for Beta Readers
Dear writers and readers, a few months ago, when I publicly announced that I would dedicate 80% of my time to Substack, 15% to Newsbreak, and just 5% to Medium, I received an intriguing call from one of my book publishers. This serendipitous encounter was inspiring, much like one of my stories that also brought serendipity. Whenever serendipity knocks on my door, I answer graciously.

Why Adults Should Read More Children's Literature
In this past May and June I was taking a Children's Literature English Class. Because of this, of course, I was reading a variety of kid's books and middle grade books. (If you don't know, middle grade is made for the age range after children's books but before young adult, basically around 8-12 years old). I've always continued reading middle grade, even as I've grown more and more out of the target audience for it, mainly by rereading books that I really enjoyed when I was younger. For the past few years I've read one of my all time favourite books, Zorgamazoo by Robert Paul Weston, over and over because it's just that great. But when I was taking this English class in the spring I read children's books that were new to me and books that are younger than I would usually go back to read, and I think it sparked something in me and made me realize: "Why don't more adults read children's literature and middle grade?"
