August recap- books+movie adaptions+poetry snippet
Greetings, friends! I understand that, to the untrained eye, it would appear that the last post I wrote was the July recap. Not so. I published many profound and brilliant posts this month.

10 Types of Book Titles- Plus Very Helpful Advice for Titling Your Book

What Happens When a Bookworm Is Unable to Read Books (Terrible things, I assure you)
Terrible things happen when you take a bookworm away from their natural habitat. We are fragile, volatile creatures. We require books to survive and frequent visits to libraries, bookstores, and quiet, secluded rooms with comfy chairs to sustain us. If we are denied these, the consequences can be dire.

July Recap- Reading, Writing, and Other Stuff (Maybe? Do I even do other stuff in my life??)
I did a lot this July. And by that I mean I left the house (multiple times!), read a bunch of books, wrote a lot, and actually ate salad. I am very proud of myself. It’s amazing what you can do with a whip behind you or a school in front of you APPROACHING AT…
