This blogging thing will take some getting used to, but I’m looking forward to stepping into uncharted waters. Hi, I’m Ashley. I recently graduated from university with my Bachelor’s degree in English/Creative Writing and my passion and goal in life is to have others read and appreciate my works.

I first heard about author Colleen Hoover on social media due to many women around my age saying how much they loved her books. “Verity” is the first story of hers I read. And even though I didn’t love it, I still found it more enjoyable than her other stories. One qualm I have with

As mentioned before in previous posts, I’ve always had an interest in my family history. Thankfully, my late grandmother saved hundreds of photographs and records that I can now look at, appreciate, research, and one day pass on to the next generation. Seeing photographs of my ancestors, many of which I never got to meet,

I’m so ready for the blistering heat to end, but I also can’t believe the summer went by so quickly. The reality is, I didn’t do a lot of what I planned to. It’s been a very hard year; for all of us I think. And most of the time things don’t go according to
