The Royal Court Book Tag

Hey everyone Steph here, and today I want to do The Royal Court Book Tag. All Images come from Goodreads. 1. Kingdom: Every Court Needs a Kingdom -What Fictional World Would You Rule Over I would say one of the courts in the ACOTAR series. I say that Night Court, but I would also love the day court. 2. Consort: Life At The Top Can Get Lonely - Pick Your Partner in Crime (Boyfriend/Girlfriend) Mr. Darcy from P&P. I love his character and I think that he would push me out of my shell. 3. Heir: Someone Needs to Keep Your Legacy Going - Pick a Royal Character Who Deserves to Rule After You Ana from Heart of Iron. I believe she has a love for both where she came from, and for D09. Yes, she is an off-center choice, but I feel that once she got used to the position, she could be a great ruler. 4. Royal Guard: Being a Ruler Comes With Many Dangers - Pick a Character You Trust To Have Your Back Hermione from Harry Potter. She is smart and loyal so I feel that I woul...

Musical Theatre Booktag!

Hello! I want to do the Musical Theatre book tag being a fan of theatre. The original source is the video, but I originally found out about it from Books&Writing Amino. I am going to be uploading the tags on Thursdays to get my blog going again, and because I find these book tags so much fun. I have a list of tags that I want to do, but feel free to suggest some you would like to see me do as well. Enjoy the tag I had a lot of fun doing this post for you all today. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ORkQsDVBJVA&feature=youtu.be This is for this week's challenge. 1. Wicked - Favourite fictional friendship When it comes to fictional friendship I have many that I love and adore. Emikia and the Phoenix Riders from the Warcross duology by Marie Lu. I give this prompt to them because they’re such a mixed bag of personalities and histories. This crew is like a family because they have trained together for a while, and in close quarters you become close to people. They help eac...

Art Clan #1

I'm a member of the Art Clan on Musical Fans Amino. The prompt this month was two different styles for writers. This is a  pantoum inspired by the song "Dear Baby" from Waitress. In the song, the main character Jenna is writing a letter to her unborn baby, and I decided to use that for the first piece.  Dear Baby, I hope that you make every moment last (Line I) I know that you might wonder about your father, and one day the details will come out (Line 2) I hope that you remember that I love you no matter what (Line 3) I hope that life brings you as much joy as you bring me(Line 4) I know that you might wonder about your father, and one day the details will come out (Line 5—same as 2) We have some amazing friends that you will meet one day (Line 6) I hope that life brings you as much joy as you bring me (Line 7—same as 4) One day I will tell you the  story about how you came to be (Line 8) We have some amazing friends that...

Back to Before - Marin Mazzie (Ragtime)

I loved Marin Mazzie so much and I am saddened by her passing.

Weekly Challenge from Books & Writing Amino

Hello! I am a member of Books & Writing Amino. There are weekly challenges, and I am going to be more active with doing them, so I thought I would upload my blog here, and then upload them there as well. This weeks was the idea of Celine, and I thank her so much for it. The challenge was to shuffle your playlist and take 5-10 songs and connect them to a character. As an avid lover of music and books, this challenge was made for me. 1: The Abduction from Natasha, Pierre and Great Comet of 1812 (Off-Broadway cast recording) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QT4KFjhhLCg "Friends of my youth when shall we meet again?" It seems like a cheating to pick Anatole who starts the song and forms the plan. I am going to say Tamlin from A Court of Thrones And Roses series by Sarah J. Maas. If you listen to the lyrics you might not see it, but I see that Tamlin is like Anatole, so my mind right to him.  I would say that Tamlin is the villain in the series, and although he did...
