Fantastical Vocal Favorites Vol. 1Top Story - October 2023
Paying it Forward I've wanted to do this for an age and a half - however - I felt like I hadn't built enough of a backlog of liked stories or a strong enough rapport with my fellow vocal creators to justify attempting it.

Izzoradelle, the Drowned Shieldmaiden Part III: The Serpent
This is a series that I wrote over a year ago while playing on a Valheim community server. The stories have been edited to remove some player tags and player clans to provide privacy to those individuals. If you wish to experience this breathtaking world for yourself, you can check out the official Valheim website here or download the game on Steam here. And no, I'm not sponsored. I just love this game! (:

National Novel Writing Month: Preptober #1
Okay, first let's clear the air: I've NEVER completed the NaNoWriMo challenge, even though I've been participating almost every year since 2016. Call it bad luck, lack of drive, or lack of time, but the 50,000 words in a month thing has never been a reachable goal for me.

Amanda's Curious Catalogue
A place for all my writing! Okay, maybe that sub-title is a little too grandiose, but madness truly is a great descriptor for some if not all of my work. I have a penchant for allowing my passion and excitement to leak through, turning some pieces ( like my book reviews ) into blubbering messes of THOUGHTS and FEELINGS rather than critical feedback.
