Heyo Bookaholics!

You’ve all seen the title, so let’s begin with what you all came here for.

LIFEL1K3 BOOK LAUNCH!

LifeL1K3 by Jay Kristoff officially launched in Melbourne last night and it was amazing!

To celebrate the official Lifel1k3, Jay blessed us with AI facts from Google and Facebook, while MC Amie tried to reassure us that we are all safe, and won’t end us in the same situation as the characters in LifeL1k3 – and yes I’ll continue to spell LifeL1k3 like that.

I Was Bitten By A Kangaroo [NOT A REAL STORY]

Heyo Bookaholics!

Today I wish to tell you the story of the dream I had last night, where I was bitten by a tiny kangaroo because for some reason kangaroos are the size of chihuahuas now?…

This is a bit of a strange story and is literally taken from a dream I had last night. It was crazy, I woke up very confused and immediately thought you’d all find enjoyment from it!

Professional Interviews Horror Storytime #4

Heyo Bookaholics!

Today was a crazy day, and as I promised you all on Instagram, I have a (slightly dramatised) Interview Horror story and life lesson to share. This will be told in narrative form and is inspired by what happened to me today in my professional interviews.

I hope you find enjoyment from this, please comment letting me know if you like this story series because I love writing them.

I didn’t go to my interviews like this, but how cute is my hair, and my outfit, and that flash!?!?!? Moral of this is show off when you think you look cute because 100% of the time you actually look cute af! Also, this was casual day at work and casual day is the best day ever!

OOPS for rambling! Continue to the story xxx

The Positives of Reading & How it Improved my Marks! Storytime Wednesday.

Heyo Bookaholics!

This Storytime Wednesday isn’t a short story like the last few weeks, rather a little life lesson on why reading is positive and how it can benefit your school marks, speech, and social skills. I will be talking of my own experiences that have lead me to believe that reading can improve everything.

I want to begin by saying that I am in no way saying that you are wrong in your choice not to pick up a book, and I am not here to tell you what you should read, because any book/ magazine/ educational document/ etc. will give you some benefit. I just want to say that yes reading is amazing for your brain and here is proof!

eBay/ PayPal Fraud + How to Avoid It (Storytime Wednesday)

Heyo Bookaholics!

I’ve wanted to make this post for a while now but delayed it because I wanted it to include all the information necessary for dealing with this.

Another thing; I know this is suppose to be a Storytime Wednesday (it still is), but I wasn’t able to post this on Wednesday as I had to attend a formal dinner and I like to review my posts before they go live.

I Wasn’t Home Alone… (Short Story)

Heyo Bookaholics!

Unlike the last two StoryTimes, this story is not a true experience rather something that had sprouted from my wild imagination when I was actually home alone. This post is mostly inspired by YouTube storytellers such as LoeyLane and Hailey Reese who, with their stories are slowly eradicating my fear of the dark and the creatures within it, one story at a time. Their stories have given me the courage to write this story for you all today (even at 12am).

They had left me.

Finally I was home alone. I’d annoyed them so so much to let me stay home alone for the five days that they’d be gone, and they eventually relented; but now

Dissociation (Short Story)

Heyo Bookaholics!

It only happens for a brief moment, but I feel as if I’ve opened my eyes into a virtual reality. Everything is as I remember it and my day hasn’t seemed to change in the slightest; but it is as if I am looking through the eyes of another. Then I’m back.

The tingles up my back and arms lets me know that I’m in my own body again. Back looking through my own eyes, nothing seems amiss, though I do feel more comfortable than I had just moments ago.

I flip my hands over in front of my eyes; and yes these are my own hands, chipped nail polish and all.

I read on tumblr once that the feeling of dissociation is a symptom of

Long Legs Flies (Short Story)

Heyo Bookaholics!

Today is the 1st post in my new and improved Storytime Wednesday series! Were each week I tell you all a story. It will typically be something that I’ve experienced, told from my perspective in a – sometimes exaggerated – kinda way. I hope you enjoy this series! Please comment your thoughts down below, and like this post to show your support for my writing xxx Let’s get stuck into the first story.

Story #1: The Long Legs Flies

Before I begin, you must understand that I had never seen a mosquito before this experience. What 9 year-old knows what a mosquito looks like? Especially when I’ve been told to stay away from the awful buzzing, biting menace to societies every summer of my life, I really took no interest in becoming acquainted with the devil himself.

This whole experience takes place in
