Drama, drama!
As some of you may be aware, I broke off with a friend on the blog some time in the middle of August last year. It probably wasn’t very elegant and I wonder whether prioritising creating content was the right approach but it happened and also I never revealed that friend name so the only…

‘Could you put that in writing?’
1. I just read an article that states the above phrase used by your boss may indicate they’re considering firing you. Who would have thought? 2. The above was meant to be the shortest of my posts. Until I decided to add another sentence to it. And another one… 3. My book has been temporarily…

R.I.P. Ashley
Do you remember Ashley Peterson, the mental health blogger who used to comment on my posts a lot before I cosed comments? She passed away on the 9th of October and her family hinted on the blog she commited suicide. What else those words could mean? ‘She could no longer bear the suffering she was…
