Everyone talks about their To Be Read List (or pile), and when you also like collecting books, that list can get long. While this is far from all of my TBR (there’s no good way to picture all the ebooks on my Kindle), it’s a good portion. How big is your TBR? Bonus points for pictures!

There are times it’s hard for me to self advertise, but I have, in fact, written and published a book. Inflicted is a collection of short fiction that is an amalgamation of science fiction and fantasy subgenres where no two stories are alike.

I read a lot. Between beta reading on Fiverr, reading and reviewing ARC’s, and reading for my own enjoyment… I’ve never really tracked how many books I actually read in a year. This year, I’m aiming to read fifty trackable books, plus… all the other books.

What are your reading goals for the year?

Did you know you can now add Emberfall by Isabelle Montague to your Goodreads TBR? Emberfall follows Evan as his soul is placed in a different body, in a new world following his unaliving. And there may just be a grumpy, over-protective alpha in this new world ready to claim him...

I have tracked my monthly/yearly word counts since 2021. This year, I am recognizing my time constraints, not beating myself up about what I can or can’t do, and setting realistic goals. At least 10k words a month, with the aim of 120k by end of December.

Guess who’s back!!! Remember me? That Goblin who likes to ramble things about writing and books? Yep. I’m back. If you recall, I published my first single-authored book back in September of 2022.

Last month I had the great honor and pleasure to read Crimson Vow: The Guardian's Chain by Ross Carruthers. I. Love. Every. Minute. Of. It. If you like dark fantasy, I highly recommened you check out my review and pick up a copy of the book.

Sometimes it astounds me that a book I'm in is in a library. 😭 I'm. In. A. Library.

If you're looking for a hot summer read to chill you, I highly recommend We Like It Cherry from @tenebrouspress.bsky.social . You. Will. Be. Harpooned. I mean... hooked.

Anyway, check out my review on Goodreads and/or my blog:

Leo Otherland's review of We Like It Cherry
5/5: Special thanks to Tenebrous Press for the ARC copy they provided. My. Gods. This. Book. It’s hard to say enough about We Like It Cherry because this book was far from what I expected in that…
