Considering this is the day for all things spooky, I thought I'd complete Blogtober (though I think I might be a few posts short - curse my inability to do basic maths!) by posting about something which has always struck me with fear....Nanowrimo Nanowrimo , for anyone who doesn't know, is a writing event throughout… Continue reading My Nanowrimo ‘19 Prep

That Awkward Moment (2014) Review [Dir. Tom Gormican]
As soon as I saw him in that red basketball jersey, my Zac Efron crush was well and truly cemented. Turns out, as the years go by, childhood crushes (at least for me) don't look like they're going away. So I was pretty happy with the fact that, in That Awkward Moment, Zac takes centre… Continue reading That Awkward Moment (2014) Review [Dir. Tom Gormican]
Ingrid Goes West (2017) Review [Dir. Matt Spicer]
When I'm not watching a zombie movie, or a cringey teen rom-com, you might just find me watching a black-comedy drama like Ingrid Goes West. I've already seen this film before but, when I found myself scrolling through Netflix (a cert these days), I thought I'd give this a watch....again. The film focuses on Ingrid… Continue reading Ingrid Goes West (2017) Review [Dir. Matt Spicer]
The Perfect Date (2019) Review [Dir. Chris Nelson]
When I'm not into a zombie movie or a thriller, I'm a fan of crappy romantic comedies. Who isn't? Trick question, everyone is, and those who aren't haven't admitted it to themselves...yet. I've had The Perfect Date on my to-watch list for a while now, considering it a. stars every pre-teen (and above)'s obsession, Noah… Continue reading The Perfect Date (2019) Review [Dir. Chris Nelson]
My Guide to Blogtober
I've (almost) done it! I've nearly completed my first Blogtober. 31 posts for 31 days. It's been an exciting, challenging experience for me. I started this blog with the intention of writing about three things: books, baking and being a student. As my time as a student came to an end, and I was gifted with more… Continue reading My Guide to Blogtober
16 Things I’d Tell My 16 Year Old Self
I feel like I was 16 a lifetime ago. I was in my last year of secondary school, going into my first year of sixth form. Now, with a few more years of wisdom under my belt, I thought I'd tell my 16 year old self some things. Stop worrying so much about how you… Continue reading 16 Things I’d Tell My 16 Year Old Self
My trip to Walt Disney World, Florida
Is it possible to feel post holiday blues three months after a holiday? Yes, yes, it is. I spent most of my last year of uni not only studying but counting down the days until I would be rubbing (rather sweaty) shoulders with a famous mouse, his friends and the characters I've grown up with… Continue reading My trip to Walt Disney World, Florida
Fractured (2019) Review [Dir. Brad Anderson]
The other day, scrolling mindlessly through Netflix, I came across Fractured. All I knew was that it starred Sam Worthington (who, I'll admit, I will shamelessly add to the list of actors I fancy!). What followed was an hour and forty minutes of heart pounding, gasp inducing weirdness. The film centres around Ray and his… Continue reading Fractured (2019) Review [Dir. Brad Anderson]
A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder by Holly Jackson
This book was at the top of my TBR list and it did not disappoint. I was apprehensive at first considering it had been compared to One of Us is Lying, a book I've tried to get into multiple times to no avail. What I thought would be a difficult book to get through was… Continue reading A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder by Holly Jackson
What I’m writing
To follow on from yesterday's post, I thought I'd let you know what I'm writing - or, more likely, what I'm planning to write. First up, I'll start with something I've already got underway. A series of books for children. My nephew, the book's protagonist and the reason I decided I would start with a… Continue reading What I’m writing
