edit data

I am a writer – because I would make a really dull character.

I can’t read minds or go invisible (in fact, I have no supernatural powers whatsoever), I don’t own a magic wand, or a ‘one ring that would rule them all’ – I don’t even have a tattoo. I don’t have a secret portrait which ages instead of me, and I certainly have not perfected the art of deduction; I’m not in love with a vampire, and I cannot shape-shift, nor time-travel (unfortuantely).

I love old books and coffee, vintage skirts, crafts, cherries, and drawing butterflies and clocks in blue pen ink. And writing. I started a blog because not every book gets published on paper – but this doesn’t always mean it’s not worth reading.
