🎶 Goodbye my love / I’ve got to let you know / I say it with a heavy heart / It’s time for me to go 🎶2027 blog and social media hiatus
Effective immediately, no new reviews will be added to the calendar. No new features that fall after January 1st will be added. Any commitments already scheduled will be honored to the best of my ability.
I desperately need to prioritize my own health and well-being. At this point, the doctors have pointed first and foremost to lowering my stress load.
Although I haven’t had my personal blog open very long, I’ll need to close it after the end of 2026.
I cannot tell you how grateful I am for all the support and connections I’ve made working with you. I’ve found so many authors and books I love. But I’d be lying if I said it didn’t hurt a little to be making this decision right now. I’m going to try and keep reading and writing on my own time at my own pace. My website will likely stay active for now.
October 2026 Update:
While some things have finally calmed down, I’m currently transitioning between migraine medications (again). I don’t know how long I’ll be without something while I titrate off the old one, still trying to sort insurance so I can get on the new one my dr prescribed. Until I’m back on something that controls the migraines, my screen time is tightly rationed – that includes laptop, phone, and TV.
While I’d like to say the blog is the only thing that requires my attention and a screen, that is unfortunately not the case. So apologies for late or missed posts or late email replies; I’m doing my best to stay on top of it all. Review posts will be taking priority. Anything received less than 48 hours before the post needs to go up will likely not be posted on time.
September 2026 Notice:
I’m currently dealing with some things in my personal life. Apologies for late or missed posts or late email replies; I’m doing my best to stay on top of it all. Review posts will be taking priority. Anything received less than 24 hours before the post needs to go up will likely not be posted.
April 2026 Update – how it’s going:
New Updates
Here’s the state of things, I was hoping to make this update sooner, but I’m worn out, y’all. I’m doing my best to keep up with everything, my writing, reviews, and still find time to do other things I enjoy like crochet and cozy games. However, I am still on screen time restrictions to try and keep my migraines under control (although the medicine I’m currently on is doing a great job as long as I don’t push it too much). I still plan on getting things published, but it’s going to be a longer timeline than I originally hoped. I’m also dealing with some other health issues, and I’m trying to adjust to everything and find a good balance while still keeping up with everything. Unfortunately allergy season is also in full swing, which means some days I need extra antihistamines and my brain ends up extra fuzzy. The state of things in the world and US has my stress levels higher than usual, on top of trying to deal with health issues. Chronically ill + the world on fire is not a great combination, so apologies if things are late, or I mix something up. I really am doing my best to hit deadlines and stay sane. Remember to do your best to make the world a brighter place, read lots of books, and stand up for those being targeted. Stay safe y’all 💜
