4 Story Tropes To Get Cozy With
Tropes. Call them what you want- clichés, gimmicks, but ultimately their formulas to create an entertaining piece of reading. A lot of these tropes I actually found through fanfiction, and was thus able to pinpoint them better in novels. So, fueled by the promise of returning reading fervor, I wanted to help foster that burgeoning flame of fantasy consumption with a reminder of some of the best things I've ever read!

Have You Read This Yet: Lure by Tim McGregor
Lure is a horror fantasy novella, just 100 pages- so short, but chock full of meaning, and savage beauty. But, let's start at the beginning.

Slay: The Ancestors Blessed Me With This Read
I started Slay at 9:00 in the evening. I read the last page at 11:45. When I tell you . . . it has been years since I've read through a book that quickly, been so consumed by a story until I devoured it? I haven't read through a book in one complete sitting since Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. I can count on one hand the number of books, as well, that have evoked such a visceral and real reaction from me as this book had, the kind that makes my chest tighten and heart flare with something sharp and a little painful for the characters. Included in that list of books to spark such a rare reaction is the aforementioned Harry Potter book, The Red Tent by Anita Diamant, and a book called The Sight by David Clement-Davies. A motley assembly, each with their own power to grab something within me in a strangling grip that compels me to push through the books just so I can know relief from the feeling.

I Got My Book In a Library . Top Story - September 2023.
I had some exciting news in my email. A few months ago, I sent a few of my poetry books over to the National Poetry Library in London. I really hope to one day actually visit the place someday, because I think it will be a place where I love. I already adore the Oxford Poetry Library. A lot of the libraries near me don’t have a lot of poetry books, so it’s really nice to know there are libraries dedicated just for poetry.

The Little Prince
In the vast expanse of literature, there exists a precious gem that has held a special place in my heart since I was a child—a book that served as my initiation into the enchanting world of stories and imagination. "The Little Prince" by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry is not merely a book; it's a cherished memory, a cherished gift from my beloved grandpa, and a timeless tale that has guided my journey through life.

Three Steps Toward Relationship Development
You know how people say that psychologists go into psychology to deal with their own issues? Well, I am one of those. Psychology gave me clarity and a path towards healing. I believe psychology can provide insights to help us heal our world today. I have a unique vantage point because I listen to people's problems and their pain for a living. Often, their pain is caused by others excusing their actions, even when it hurts. I have experienced it too. However, beneath pain, there is always an unmet need. When I look at the world around us, filled with division, climate collapse, racism, inequity, and trauma, I sense that something fundamental is missing. I believe that missing piece is ownership. In fact, I think the world needs radical ownership. This term captures my theory of our need to be accountable for our actions.
