A silent voice

Trigger warning: Suicide / Depression As someone who was bullied for being different when I was a child, I have an understandable soft spot for stories about the subject of bullying. That doesn’t mean every bullying story will click with me, as it's still a painful subject to this day. I look at some of … Continue reading A silent voice →

Vol 5: Chapter 8 – The first delve

Vol 5: Chapter 7 – A decision made

Crawling out of the dungeon entrance came a monstrosity that would likely haunt the present soldiers’ dreams for centuries to come.

The Riftwar Cycle

Before I was a writer, I was an avid reader. I got into writing at quite a young age, but it was the stories that I read as a child that influenced me to start to make my own.

From the world of the Hesitant Hero: Redsan Village

In my effort to accomplish three different things at once, I’ll be talking about the world of the Hesitant Hero from time to time. The three things I want to accomplish with this are simple. I want to give myself some breathing room between chapters, which hopefully results in a better thought out story. Writing … Continue reading From the world of the Hesitant Hero: Redsan Village →

10 years since Orange

At the time of watching Orange for the first time, there were not very many drama romance shows I was familiar with. I didn’t really start my (shallow) dive into romance manga yet, and shonen action was definitely still my preferred genre (alongside Isekai). So a really solid drama like Orange - although not my … Continue reading 10 years since Orange →
