Happy Wednesday! (what to put here?) I am once again procrastinating writing this WIP, but in my defence, I did write 4,000 words last week, bringing the total up to 34,000 words! If you want to know about this WIP, there are heaps of posts in the NaNoWriMo 2019 tag dating back to November 1st, where you can read all about the story and its progress. Side note: OC = Original Character. Did I buy the Sims4 so I could […]

Hai Spicy Hoomans! Yes, I said Jan TBR. I’m a slow reader. Since I left for Korea at the end of November 2019, till the end of January 2020 I read a total of 2.2 novels. I DNF’d a novel too (hence the .2) which made it a truly sad two months when it came to reading. Because of this, I didn’t make a TBR for February. Instead, in Feb I completed my January 2020 TBR, which was really just […]

Hai Spicy Hoomans! Ever wanted to know more about the book you just read? All three posts have been made possible by the wonderfully lovely Chloe Hodge who’s kindness over social media started it all. Her amazing novel Vengeance Blooms, which I reviewed on Monday kick-started my list of questions and Chloe was kind enough to answer them all. You can read the first set of questions which I posted on Wednesday revolving around Self-Publishing and Editing. The questions in this […]

Hai Spicy Hoomans! I’m curious, so I asked questions. The posts this week have been made possible by the wonderful Chloe Hodge, author of Vengeance Blooms, a book I recently finished and have fallen in love with. She has graciously accepted to answer some questions on two topics; Her novel, Vengeance Blooms which is the content of Saturday’s post, and Self-Publishing & Editing which is the content in today’s post. A little about Chloe: Chloe is a journalist turned author […]

Hai Spicy Hoomans! Support Self-Published Authors! I finally finished the last book on my January TBR!! *cue happy royalty-free cheer (that one from YouTube)* I’m pretty proud of me. After DNFing Wearing Paper Dresses which I wasn’t so into, I picked this novel up and my reading slump was evicted. I’m also happy to have connected with the author of this novel on Instagram, which lead me to purchasing her novel and giving it a go. Blurb: Orphaned and alone, […]

Hai Spicy Hoomans! Writing, Chatting & Snacking! This morning I ventured into Mr. Tulk cafe in Melbourne’s CBD to catch up with Sarah, Emily and other budding writers who are currently drafting the next New York Times Bestseller! I was feeling really uninspired today so I didn’t really get much writing done. I probably wrote a total of 3 words, not even completing a sentence. It wasn’t really a writer’s block situation, rather a case of being really unmotivated. I […]

Heyo Bookaholics! If you’re an organisation freak like I am, you’re going to adore this app! As you can tell, this isn’t a generic Monday Book Review, because today I’m talking about this organisation app that I am absolutely in love with and I want everyone to give it a go. I love organisation apps. I have trawled the app store many times to find the perfect app for organisation and keeping on top of tasks. I’ve downloaded, trialled and deleted […]
Continue ReadingHai Spicy Hoomans! I’d love to make blogging my job one day… I am a new member of a blogging group named, The Book Slut! I applied and was accepted as a blogger on the site late last year. Since then, I have pitched ideas and as of last week, had a post published on the site! I thought I’d talk about it on here just to give some insight into what I’ve learnt about blogging with others and what […]

Hai Spicy Hoomans! Ah, writing… I’m writing this today because it’s a Thursday and Thursday’s mean that I participate in #TheWriteNight on Twitter. If you don’t know, #TheWriteNight is run by @TheYAPage on Twitter, which is also a writing group that meets for brunch once a month to write and chat. If I’m not mistaken, this is the first StoryTime Wednesday (but on a Thursday) for 2020. If you’re not sure what StoryTime Wednesday is on Jasper + Spice, it’s […]

Hai Spicy Hoomans! Electronic or Hardcopy? Many people choose Goodreads and that’s super cool if you are good at maintaining a tracker. I, unlike many, am not. Instead, I like to keep a simple manual record on my phone and put data into Goodreads when I remember to. I have an android mobile so I use a Google powered application called Keep Notes. You can actually download it on any device if you have a google account, it just comes […]
