37

This weekend was my birthday. It felt strange to be this age when I felt much younger. At first, I freaked out. Then, I realised that there's no going back. Not that I wanted to anyway. I've come a long way to be right where I belonged.

I set myself a challenge to finish writing Sisters Of The Moon and to read as many books as I can in the month of May.

I've also deleted Facebook.  Shock! Horror! Hahaha! 😂😂😂 I never thought I'd do that, ever. There were people and friends, and people I sort of knew. Since the Cambridge Analytica scandal, I became concerned about security and privacy. I felt uneasy about it. At the beginning, I changed my password but my old password wouldn't work. So I changed it and deleted Facebook. That night, I slept so well and woke up refreshed. My attention wasn't taken up so much by my friends' posts, comments and tags, not that I didn't like them. 😊 I felt freer and I focused on improving my habits.

Anyway, I hope you are all doing well and are living your best lives.

Just Don't Fall

I am totally humbled by Josh Sundquist's book Just Don't Fall. I finished reading it within three days and couldn't put it down, and now I can't forget about it. Going through cancer and an amputation when he was nine years old must have been so tough for his whole family. You can read about his journey in the book. Then the courage he found to go on and inspire so many people is beyond admirable. It's almost heroic.



Josh is also funny, very honest and beautiful. His Paralympic relentlessness and passion made me look at my own writing goals under a close microscope. If he could achieve all that he did, so can I.

One more thing, Josh is also a motivational speaker and a funny man. Subscribe to his YouTube Channel!

I highly recommend this book. You'll be obsessed with it. :)

Love,

The Best Paranormal Podcasts

Hello! I hope you've all had a great Christmas and amazing New Year.

Want You Dead

I recently finished reading the book Want You Dead by Peter James.


Red Westwood meets Bryce Laurent through an online dating agency. They are instantly attracted to each other. She falls deeply in love with him, but after a year of turmoil, the truth about his past emerges and she kicks him out of her flat.
From that day on, he stalks her and tries to destroy her and everyone close to her. She is under police protection but is she safe from him?
I read this book in four days. I love how he provided details about the detectives involved and their personal lives too. The best thing about it is it's based in Brighton. :)
It's the 10th book in the series with the detective Roy Grace featuring in it. I really enjoyed it.
I started reading You Are Dead recently. I'll update you once I'm done reading it. 
Next time, I'll get you up-to-date on what I've been writing and my progress on Sisters Of The Moon.
Good Night. xoxo

The Time When A Human Turned Into a Phoenix

Hi! I hope you're  all as excited as I am about Halloween.

The Time The Sky Turned Orange

Yesterday, I went outside and the sky was orange! It cast a weird light and everything looked almost black and white, like the old movies. It was so weird. The birds were flying away towards the seafront. People were freaking out. They were taking pictures and walking in the middle of the street. It was a bit chaotic. Then it started raining and the wind picked up. I could totally write a book about this. I hope you enjoy it. :)

Police Cells Ghost Hunt

I never thought I'd go on a ghost hunt. When the opportunity came up, I thought about it for a while before purchasing my ticket. A friend of mine and a couple of her friends were going, so I thought that it would be fun for the four of us to go on this ghost hunt. I took my camera with me. I hope you enjoy it!
