Well, I’m not going on a bear hunt. But kids all over the country are! I picked an article from a region far from mine (if you want to read about it here from a more official source), but it’s happening all over. As a way to deal with this quarantine/self-isolation/social-distancing, some people are setting out stuffed bears, and kids go on hunts to find them.
I think it’s a cute idea! But I’m using my stuffed dragons instead. Hope that works!

(It helped that I was able to get Archenemies and Supernova from the library at the same time.) Continue reading “Book Review: Renegades”
Happy Pi Day! I’m no mathematician, but I do appreciate desserts and offbeat holidays.
I might not be an expert writer, but at this point I think I can say I’m somewhat knowledgeable of how to make a worldbuilding questionnaire. Mostly because I’ve been making them since I was…ten? Nine? It was something I started about the same time I started making stories. If you’re a writer of science fiction or fantasy, it’s an activity I highly recommend.
