Looking back on 2017: the constructive

Continuing from yesterday’s gushing positive post, it’s time for me to talk about a few of the things that were less happy times for me in 2017.

Looking back on 2017: the good

Looking back, looking ahead It’s the beginning of a brand new year, and for me, as for many people, this time is a time of relaxation, but also it’s a time for reflecting on things to come and things that have just come to pass. 2017 was a year of so many things for me,… Read More Looking back on 2017: the good

This blog is changing

Hello guys, gals, and non-binary pals, As you may have noticed over the past two years, I haven’t been very good at maintaining this blog.

My thoughts on Can-Con 2017

Hello all, I know it’s been a very long time since I’ve posted here, and I apologize. I’ve been struggling with my mental health more than usual lately (more posts forthcoming) and have been nearly completely unable to write.
