If you're here for the gift, scroll to the end of the News section :) I came across a Thread (on Threads, naturally) earlier this year that said they bought themselves an ice-cream cake just because they were an adult and had the money, and instantly...

Okay, that may be a bit of a stretch for the title, but it's the first thing that came to mind. Sue me for knowing Anne of Green Gables too well. This is not the regular monthly newsletter, which is incoming, but merely an announcement that my debut...

I know, I just wrote y'all a newsletter, but this one is worth you checking out, for 2 reasons. 1. My book is participating in the Summer Multi-Author Giveaway hosted by Kylie @ The Film Director's Wife! There's 2 huge bundles with over 30 parti...
