It might be Monday, but it's also Ace Week, so it's time to get HYPED. And there's nothing quite like a good playlist to get you in the mood (for raising awareness). To help keep the party going all week long, I've scoured Spotify for the best asexual playlists out there. So get those headphones … Continue reading AAW: Asexual Anthems
Today marks the start of Asexual Awareness Week 2019, also known as AAW or Ace Week. As some of you may know, I came out as ace earlier this year, so I'm going to actually put some effort into AAW this year! 'Asexual' is a label I have identified with on and off for about … Continue reading AAW: Asexual Awareness Week
The queen of UK YA has done it again. Holly Bourne's new book, The Places I've Cried in Public, is her most powerful story yet. It follows Amelie as she retraces the steps of her relationship with Reese, specifically all the places he made her cry. This is a brilliant and heartbreaking book about abuse, … Continue reading Review: The Places I’ve Cried in Public
Anyone who knows me knows I love a good zombie flick - or a bad one. Which is odd really, considering I can't handle most other kinds of horror.

Earlier this month, I got my first ever tattoo (sorry Dad)! I'd been thinking about it for a long time - almost a year, in fact. I found a design that totally inspired me, and after a year of wanting it, I finally booked myself in to get it done. As I often do, I … Continue reading My First Tattoo!
Goddess of the Hunt is a new book of poetry by Shelby Eileen (author of Sunfish and Soft in the Middle) all about the Greek goddess Artemis. In these poems, traditional representations of Artemis meet with more modern interpretations of her myth in a really beautiful way. She is portrayed as a badass aroace (aromantic/asexual) … Continue reading ARC Review: Goddess of the Hunt
On the 1st of February I travelled up to London to support my friend Summer and her band Secret Power at their first EP launch. I am very much a book person and not so much a music person, so I felt very uncool and out of my depth (as I often do around cool, … Continue reading Secret Power EP Launch
Two weeks ago, I went on a writing retreat - just me and my laptop, alone on a farm in the middle of nowhere. I actually got a lot more out of it than just this stupid blog post, but I'm a sucker for a catchy title. The aim was to focus on my novel … Continue reading I Went On A Writing Retreat And All I Got Was This Stupid Blog Post
I am conscious that I haven't posted on here in a while and I've had a cold all week and I think it's finally reached my brain because I decided to try shitposting. I normally reserve this for Facebook or my various WhatsApp group chats but 2019 is all about trying new things so here … Continue reading 16 Ways to Beat a Cold
