      😀 I am loving your blog too. Haven’t gotten to read your book in progress yet, but when I get some time I’ll make sure to read it.

      Good luck at college. Its going to be so much fun for you. And I love your puppy. I have a little Boston terrier named Princess. 🙂

    You said you’re a gamer! Yay girl gamers? Tell me what you play!

      Yay girl gamers! Right now I’m totally obsessed with Guild Wars 2. Level 74 necro, and aiming for 80 by Monday. I did Skyrim for a while, dragonage, and a whole slew of MMO’s over the last 8 or so years. Not really into Xbox or Playstation, but definitely a PC gamer.

      Originally when I started my blog I was going to include stuff on all my hobbies, including more about my gaming, but it seems to have evolved into a more Steampunk/writing focus. But I really like GW2 right now. If you haven’t tried it you should!

      Do you play anything??? Favorite games??

    I’ve always been interested in Steam Punk and will definitely have at least one novel dedicated to that genre but in the mean time I will just read on. May you be prosperous in your endeavors!

      I ❤ steampunk. Something about the mix of old fashioned setting and new technologies/possibilities makes it a very exciting genre to me. Thanks for stopping by!
