The April bouquet is here 😍
This summer, I'll be working on my most ambitious project yet through a fellowship with @writerscolonydairyhollow. I set out to get this fellowship and I got it. The project (that I proposed) is different for me and beyond my current capabilities, but that's how it should be. I can't wait to see what I create.
You ever see a trailer for a tv show and instantly know it's based on a book? A while back, I saw the trailer for Shadow & Bone on Netflix and just knew, so I looked it up and requested the book at the library. I didn't expect to demolish it in one evening. SHADOW & BONE by Leigh Bardugo was a nice distraction from the world for a minute. And it was nice to read about love and pining that builds and makes sense and is supported by character history and lore elements and not just a thing that's forced for the narrative. I can't wait to watch the show. I'll probably binge that too.
