Bloody Spade, by Brittany M Willows | spoiler free review

Published on December 14, 2021December 28, 2021 by Aria2 Comments

Hello! This morning, I had a two-hour delay for school because it was really icy. Where I live, we hardly ever get snow and seem to be incapable of handling the slightest bits of cold. It was really nice to have the extra time, though, and I was able to read a bunch. I even finished reading Bloody Spade, by Brittany M. Willows! It took me a little while to completely finish reading Bloody Spade, but I really enjoyed it, and I’m excited to share my review of the book with you all today!

Writing update: my nanowrimo wrap up

Published on December 13, 2021 by Aria3 Comments

Hello! I hope that you’re all having a good start to your week. This is my last week of school until winter break, and I’m so excited for that! My ballet performance was on Saturday, and we did the Nutcracker. It was really fun, but it was definitely exhausting and I’m glad to have a break. Because I don’t have dance after school any days this week, I’m going to have a lot more time for blogging, which is nice.

Anyways, I’m really excited for tonight’s post, even though it is coming almost halfway through December. As you may know from my previous posts, I did Nanowrimo this November. Nanowrimo stands for National Novel Writing Month, and it’s when you try to write a novel in a month. This was my second November participating, and I had a really great time. I’m very excited to talk about what I ended up doing, and overall how the month went for me!
