My Etsy Journey and Listings
In mid-January this year, I opened an Etsy shop and named it 'ArtsforHealingGifts'. As of March 8, 2026, in my shop, I have 68 listings. I am tracking which items are working, which are not. Why success and failure happen? How can I improve the invisible ones?

From Variants to Legacy
This idea didn’t come from a panel, a publisher, or a Comic-Con keynote. It came from a comment section. After I published my article about how comic shops don’t need more collectors but more readers, I came across a comment that quietly reframed the entire conversation. The commenter pointed out something that, in hindsight, feels almost obvious: libraries are often the genuine point of entry for new comic readers, not comic shops.

Fallout Series Review (Season 2)
After so many underwhelming video game adaptations, Fallout showed everyone how was it done with a knockout opening season in 2024. The second chapter takes a firmer grip on the source material, directly incorporating the lore into the main narrative. For the most part, it’s every bit as effective and engaging as the original.

I heard that reading books and buying them are two different hobbies. I do read a lot, though if I am being honest it's mostly via audiobooks and when printed, the books come from the library. You'd think then, that my money is, in regards to books, safe in my wallet or in my bank.

Pet Sites From the 2000s: Where Are They Now?
When I was growing up, the Internet was packed with safe spaces for children: simple games, educational websites and pet sites that invited you to create a digital companion. Today, most of those websites have disappeared. However, pet sites were so huge at their peak that they still linger in the public's consciousness--and with "y2k" aesthetic making a comeback, these games might have another shot in the limelight.
