Hi Everyone, I can’t say it any other way, 2020 sucked. It wasn’t a great year for many and a lot of us suffered. It’s hard to really think on the positives of 2020 as it all felt draining and terrible. I feel though that, while my problems are nowhere near as serious or urgent … Continue reading 2020 in review and a path going forward

Book Review: The Heroes of Olympus #2 – The Son of Neptune by Rick Riordan
Continuing the Heroes of Olympus series by Rick Riordan, I expected more of the same as The Lost Hero. I was pleasantly surprised to find that Riordan broke away from his typical formula and created a trio that were all equally magnificent. Exploring more Roman archetypes and their pantheon, I was happy to see the … Continue reading Book Review: The Heroes of Olympus #2 – The Son of Neptune by Rick Riordan
Book Review: The Heroes of Olympus #1 – The Lost Hero by Rick Riordan
It’s been a rough couple of months with very little reading so I thought I’d dive back into Rick Riordan’s world with The Heroes of Olympus – The Lost Hero. As expected, his work is wonderfully interwoven with mythology and makes for a fun and character focused adventure. But its hard to ignore certain imperfections … Continue reading Book Review: The Heroes of Olympus #1 – The Lost Hero by Rick Riordan

Grammarly Review from a Writer’s perspective
I want to preface this first by saying this is an unpaid and unsponsered look into the Grammarly program. This is purely out of curiosity and in my own exploration of the program I hope to help those just as curious as I am. Any programs or sites that can help self-published authors succeed. This … Continue reading Grammarly Review from a Writer’s perspective
Book Review: Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard – The Hammer of Thor
Oh my goodness there are quite a few disclaimers for this book. First and foremost the ending does have spoilers for The Heroes of Olympus series. I believe now that Riordan intended for his audience to read the books in order so I won’t be finishing the series until I read the previous series unfortunately. … Continue reading Book Review: Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard – The Hammer of Thor
Book Review: Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard – The Sword of Summer by Rick Riordan
Ever since I finished the Percy Jackson series, I felt more inspired to continue my own writing. The infusion of Greek mythology and modern day life (modern for the time I suppose) was a fun twist. When I picked up Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard box set, I imagined that it would be … Continue reading Book Review: Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard – The Sword of Summer by Rick Riordan
Author Musings #1: The Hero Villain Dynamic
Hello everyone! I though I would expand on the part of my reviews where I talk about what writer’s can learn from the book. There’s often so much that I want to say in these small parts but it would risk derailing the entire review. Hope you enjoy it! ** Spoiler Warnings! ** Percy Jackson … Continue reading Author Musings #1: The Hero Villain Dynamic
Book Review: Percy Jackson and The Olympians – The Last Olympian
The end of the Percy Jackson series, Percy Jackson and The Olympians - The Last Olympian is a fun and enjoyable read. It’s drenched in references and character growth that makes the series worth investing in. As much as I loved it though, there were still a few issues that could have made it the … Continue reading Book Review: Percy Jackson and The Olympians – The Last Olympian
Book Review: Percy Jackson and the Olympians – The Battle of The Labyrinth
Continuing the Percy Jackson series, The Battle of The Labyrinth feels a lot more action packed than the previous novels. There’s also a surprising amount of character development, however not all of it is for the best unfortunately. I will say however if you do read the book to ignore the reviews on the back … Continue reading Book Review: Percy Jackson and the Olympians – The Battle of The Labyrinth
