First Blog Post - what's up party people

9 December 2026

I was unsure whether to make a blog section on my site, mostly because, knowing myself, I would either lose interest after a while or straight-up forget about updating it. I also didn't want to give myself a strict schedule to update it because schedules suck out all the joy in what I do creatively, and this is what this site is all about. I think the best option for me is to update it sporadically, whenever inspiration hits me.
I also think I'm going to make it very stream of consciousness. Just blurt out whatever is on my mind at the time of writing. I was thinking over the last few days what I was going to mention, things I was doing that could be worthy of being mentioned, so here it goes:
I'm really happy with the latest chapter of Garofița! It is the beginning of a new arc I have been cooking in my brain for a while. The characters of Garofița and Aurora have been cooking in my brain for years, they are just the latest iteration of ocs I always kind of carried with me. I feel really smart for what I came up with Aurora's backstory and I can't wait to drip-feed it in the story. The girls are narrative foils for each-other, each being a representation of how their lives could have gone differently. Alternative universe versions of each-other, even. I love my daughters, sprouting out of my head like Athenas.

I have also been reading "Thirteen Storeys" by Jonathan Sims, Head Archivist of the Magnus Institute London. That podcast will never leave me, and for a good reason. I have wanted this book ever since it first came out, I wanted it sooo badly, but I was in school and didn't know how to find it in local markets or how to buy online from the UK. But my lovely beautiful spectacular show-stopping obsession-supporting sister got it for me, for Christmas!
It is everything I wanted and more. It is so freaking good, y'all. I love love love the way Sims writes, the tension and the fake-outs, where you think the person escaped the horror only to get dragged right back in. I am reading and covering half the page to not accidentaly spoil myself, because it will be pretty tame, a little odd but tame, and then it goes full insanity, 1000 miles an hour within a second.
aaaaaaaaaaa I love it
I really want to be able to read like that, to catch attention and make hearts skip a beat with sentences alone.

So yeah this is my first blog post,
let's see how long I'll keep it up!
