Everybody on the V.C. Andrews Facebook groups told me not to. Begged me even. But I did it. I read Whitefern, which is probably one of the most despised books penned under the V.C. Andrews name. It's the sequel of what was Andrews' only stand-alone book for many years, My Sweet Audrina. Likely, you[...]
Hey, friends. As of late, I haven't been posting as often. I've had a very difficult time with finding the time to tend to my blog, despite wanting to. I feel awful that I haven't been able to keep up with my moodboards and my V.C. Andrews reviews, but such is the life of a retail-working mom write[...]
At the end of 2021, I was encouraged to contribute to an anthology with a theme that was practically made for me. Gothic dark eroticism. Problem was, I didn't really have the time to write a new story, as it was Christmas (which always cuts my writing time short) and I was also already in the middl[...]
I took a bit of a hiatus from writing stories for The Crow's Quill so I could focus on my novel for a bit, but well, the novel hit a bit of a wall during the holidays. I did also find a bit of motivation to write a new piece of short fiction, and it proved to be the distraction I needed. Now, I apo[...]
Well, it was another year full of chaos, which may or may not have stifled my reading from time to time. I actually started 2021 off with a bang, finishing a book every couple weeks or so. Thankfully, my corner of the world managed to get through the year without another lockdown, so things remaine[...]
I realize that my blogging frequency has gone a bit stale. Free time has been in short supply and when it is, I'd rather spend what little writing time I have writing fiction that few people read but I make a bit of money on, than on blog posts that few people read and I get no money on. "MONETIZE[...]
Like everyone else with a Netflix subscription, I recently got waaaaay into Squid Game, so much so that I considered ordering myself a tracksuit so I could be a Squid Game player for Halloween. But, because I boycott Amazon and couldn't find a tracksuit from a non-sketchy online retailer, I decided[...]
It's been a while since my last Grown-Ass V.C. Andrews Review. My intention was to read the entire Landry series before the Lifetime movies came out but my ability to read has been rather hit and miss this year. (I did read Ruby but watching the movies in that short burst was too much Landry for me[...]
I've been a bit absent. Been dealing with some writer's block. Been struggling with mom stuff. I'm exhausted and feel like a hack and have been dealing with anxiety. You know. Millennial shit. Writer shit. Living in what feels like end times shit. In August, however, all that end times shit actuall[...]
I've done a shit job at keeping up with this blog all September. I'd try and explain myself but there's no time for that because it is now October and I've a new story to share with you, called "The Walking Hours". It's a vampire story, which definitely isn't my normal affair, but I'm glad I took[...]
