your 2025 reading list
best reads from this year (and some from last year, too) I’ve heard a million times that becoming a great writer requires writing as much and as often as you can. While this is true, I believe reading as much and as often as you can – exposing yourself to new themes,...

this is not a gift + guide
uninterested in boxing myself in (pun fully intended) Hello my winter sunshine, my hot cocoa by the fire. It’s around that time where we all start breaking up for the holidays and I don’t know about you, but the prospect of that feels both exciting and much-needed! Hopefully you’ve all got...

exposing myself
hear me out When deciding what to write for this week’s wildcard, I struggled to come up with just a single subject. Typically I’d be writing from London, a place that offers up endless inspiration thanks to the myriad of people and things one encounters on a daily basis.
