🦋 💜 🌿 Hi! How are you?
I spent the last two weeks trying to catch up on work because I had a cold in early August.
That means having some “redos” of events that were going to be near my birthday.
So it’s been very busy, but some fun things are going on, too.
In this email, I am sharing:
- 3 recommendations for things I’ve been enjoying this season
- 1 article I wrote this week.
Here are the Recommendations:
1. Movie
Okay, this is cheesy, but for my birthday I was excited to see Freakier Friday.​
All I wanted were some nostalgia vibes, as it’s a sequel to a Lindsey Lohan movie that came out in 2003.
Well, I would say nostalgia vibes were achieved.
It’s not a high brow movie by any means, but it made me laugh and I’d still recommend it with 4 stars.
2. Book
Recently, my friend and I were reminiscing about being teens at the beach together, reading fantasy novels side by side.
I recommended a fantasy novel I’ve enjoyed recently. It is a single, stand alone novel, so no commitment to read a whole series.
This is set at a wizarding college in England. Think Oxford plus magic vibes.
I would say it is “New Adult,” not YA, not for children but not super dark or intense like The Magicians.
It got a solid 5 stars from me.
The Scholar and the Last Faerie Door by H.G. Parry
3. Game
I love this new book-related video game that I picked up, called Tiny Bookshop.
“Leave everything behind and open a tiny bookshop by the sea in this ambient narrative management game.
Stock your tiny bookshop with different books and items, set up shop in scenic locations, and run your cosy second-hand bookshop while getting to know the locals.”
5 Stars from me.
It’s easy to play for either a ten minute chunk or way longer, depending on how much time you have.
Worth checking out!
And now for a deeper topic that I hope inspires you to write and create!

People come to me about their creative projects: books, business blogs, articles, emails, sales pages, marketing launches, websites, posts, and videos.
Often, they meet with me because they have been struggling. They have a lot of questions and choices to sort through in order to make progress for their book or business.
Confused, and stuck between different actions that they can take, they start telling me about the whole tangle.
Often, the confusion is compounded because they worry about doing things the wrong way, going in the right direction, or writing the wrong thing.
If you struggle with this confusion and overwhelm, it can be a lot.
