Friday in Review: Five Fave Book OTP's

Happy day after Valentines Day! I hope you had a good day with lots of chocolate!

To celebrate, I want to talk about my favorite bookish OTP's. Last February I talked about my favorite TV show couples, so I figured I should mix things up and talk books this year. So here are five of my favorite bookish couples:

  • Percabeth (Percy Jackson and the Olympians). They were one of the first OTP's I ever shipped. Percy and Annabeth were and always will be the best couple ever. 
  • Solara and Doran from Starflight. They will always be one of my favorite couples. I love that book so much and wish Melissa Landers would write more of them. I am excited for her new fantasy series she's working on right now though. 
  • Scarlet and Wolf (and pretty much every other pairing in the Lunar Chronicles series cuz I love them all. I love Scarlet and Wolf the most, but I also love Cinder and Kai, Cress and Thorne and Jacin. They all are just the best. 
  • Evie and Luc from The Darkest Star. This was such a fun book to read! I loved the Lux series and the world Jennifer L. Armentrout had created for her characters. (Again, I'm a sucker for human/alien romances).
  • The Alyssa/Jeb/Morpheus triangle in the Splintered series. This was (and still is) one of my favorite YA trilogies. A dark Alice in Wonderland series with a complex love triangle? Doesn't get much better than that. This love triangle wasn't like anything I'd ever read before. Alyssa and Jeb had history and chemistry as did her and Morpheus and the little jabs and hating between Jeb and Morpheus was so entertaining. By the end you didn't know who you wanted Alyssa to be with because you loved Jeb and Morpheus equally!  
I haven't done a Friday in Review in so long! It feels good to get back into the rhythm of posting twice a week instead of just once. My blog post views have been a little low and I feel that's partly my fault for not posting as frequently as I should be. So I hope my more consistent posting schedule, plus the beautiful new look of the blog will help. I also managed to figure out how to make a newsletter and stick it up on my blog! So go to the drop down menu in the right corner, scroll down and sign up for my newsletter! I'm figuring out how to attach a welcome email so you instantly get a free short story when you sign up. More details on that soon I hope. For now get signed up. I'm excited to start up a newsletter and figure out all the details and make it fun and exciting for my subscribers.

Also! For Valentine's Day (but mostly for my little brother's birthday today who is turning 12)  he got a chihuahua/pug mix!! I think we've finally settled on a name: Bear. Full name is Little Bear, nickname is Bear. (Yeah I think we have a problem with naming our dogs after different animals... Chessie short for Cheshire Cat and now Bear short for Little Bear...)


Isn't he adorable?? Follow my instagram (also in the drop down menu) for adorable pictures and videos of him in my story haha



What are your favorite bookish (or TV) OTP's??

How to Revise like a Pantser ft. Big Hero 6 Gifs

Happy Wednesday everyone! I hope you've had a great week so far and that you have a great Easter weekend ahead! We plan on going to my grandparent's on Friday to celebrate Easter with family and spending the night there so that'll be a fun time. :) Alright, so I contemplated doing an Easter-y post on here but I wasn't even sure what that would look like... So instead, I thought I'd do something fun and happy in honor of the celebration of Easter on Sunday. Without further ado, here is your Big Hero 6 gif filled revising process from a real life pantser: The end of your first draft is in sight! You type like crazy, stay up past your normal bedtime until it is finished. When you type The End, the satisfaction that you actually did this thing sets in. Guys, it is the sweetest feeling ever. Knowing you worked so hard to complete this draft and came out on the other side. Unscathed? Perhaps not. But triumphant? Definitely! That first draft is a total disast

Cover Reveal: Golden Touch!!

 Happy Tuesday!!  Today's the day! I turn 23 and I couldn't think of a better way to celebrate than to share the cover for Golden Touch! I think this is by far my favorite cover my mom has ever done. It's crazy to think that this time last year Golden Touch was still just a first draft and I was in the middle of writing book 2 of the series. A defining part of my twenty-second year will always be having revised Golden Touch and written almost the entire Archive Series. And now I get to open up my twenty-third year with sharing the cover and writing book the first draft of book 5, the very last book in the series. God is so good guys. I really think He gave me Golden Touch and this whole series a few months before the events of 2020 started. He gave me a story I could get lost in, I could find joy in even during some of the hardest times of the year. And now I get to share the cover and I get to close out the series and I just pray and hope that God will use Golden Touch and

How to Write a Negative Character Arc

Anyone else love reading a train wreck? I find negative character arcs refreshing and fun to read and watch because not a lot of people do them. Like I'm a sucker for a redemption arc. I love characters that start out horrible and bad and "irredeemable" and then slowly redeem themselves and become the good guy. But from time to time I just love watching a good character go bad. Call me evil but I hope I'm not the only one who enjoys this. I've actually wanted to write this post for a while after rewatching Merlin last year and then over the past month me and a friend were rewatching Star Wars and I've always enjoyed the prequels because of Anakin's downward spiral. Also the last season of The 100, you watch as Octavia completes her journey to becoming one of the meanest, worst antagonists in the show. And that's saying something. The other day I really thought about what other characters who have negative arcs there are but I honestly couldn't th
