I decided to write a list of my top 5 historical fiction books since historical fiction is the genre I read the most. My Top Five Historical Fiction Books: How I Came To The Decision I struggled to decide which books would fall within my top five since I read so much historical fiction. Then, I also had to determine whether I wanted most or all set in the same era. I mostly read about the Six Wives of Henry VIII or the Titanic, which limits how much historical fiction I enjoy.

Why I Love Researching The Olympic Class Liners
The Olympic Class Liners are three ships built by the White Star line in the 1910s. These are the RMS Olympic, RMS Titanic, and HMHS Britannic. Out of these three ships, only the Titanic is well-remembered due to sinking on her maiden voyage.

Where My Interest in the Olympic Class Liners began In 2012, I first heard of the Olympic Class Liners through the 1997 James Cameron Titanic film. As it was the centenary, there were a lot Read More
Why I Love The Sarah Jane Adventures
Those who know me well will know that a blog post about The Sarah Jane Adventures will come sooner or later. I adore the show, and the characters stayed with me for years. Whenever I tried to write a blog post about the show, I struggled to think of what to write. How can I explain my love for a show that affected me for my entire teenage life and continues to affect me to this day? I often turn to my special interest in the show either when I am daydreaming or burnt out after an exhausting day. When Read More

Why I Love Writing Fanfiction
I have written fanfiction for years, and have accounts on several different fanfiction websites. For me, fanfiction is a safe place for me to go when I find I cannot cope. It is one of the ways I kept my stress levels down when I was at school, and even now, I find myself relying on writing fanfiction a lot. Fanfiction websites I use I use three fanfiction websites to read and upload my work: fanfiction.net, Wattpad, and Archive of Our Own (also known as A03). These days, I use Wattpad and Archive of Our Own more than fanfiction.net, but I still read work on that Read More
