    It’s okay to go slow

    by Hannah Smith June 24, 2022
    June 24, 2022

    I’ve been completely out of the loop with all things author-related lately. I’ve been battling through some serious burn-out and mental health stuff, so I decided to take a break from: Posting and scrolling on Instagram (which I never thought…

    February feels

    by Hannah Smith March 2, 2021
    March 2, 2021

    February was a rollercoaster month of emotions.  For starters, I missed out on a self-publishing course by a few minutes and I had an actual meltdown. I received feedback from my beta readers. It was a daunting experience. I couldn’t…

    When a pandemic ruins everything

    Bear with me while I am overly self-indulgent for a minute. Or a couple of minutes. I haven’t written a blog post in over two months. I’ve completely stalled on progressing my novel. I’m overeating. I find myself indulging in…

    H As someone who often thinks about their mental health (and who also adores both Osher Gunsberg and Rosie Waterland) I found a recent podcast of them together, comforting. Heroic Self Care with Rosie Waterland is a conversation about all…

    Battle of the brain

    Recently I woke up with a feeling of despair and hopelessness engulfing my entire body. Perhaps my realistic dreams had taken a hold of me or my body was warning me of something untoward. Whatever it was, when my alarm…

    I went stand-up paddle boarding and didn’t die

    I went stand-up paddle boarding for the first time today. IKR. The activity that people have been doing since the 1940s; the one that people do with their dogs onboard; the one that apparently even the most balanced-challenged have been…

(spoilers ensue).

I don’t know what your thoughts were on this book, but I devoured it in a day so🤷🏻‍♀️

Yes - the female lead is positively perfect in every way, with a disposition so sweet that you just KNOW she’s going to attract the complete opposite in a man. 

And yes - the male lead is ridiculously perfect in every way. He’s successful, wealthy and obnoxious. He does the whole “I hate everyone except her” thing and naturally, he’s a stud in bed. Like, he can go for HOURS and has the FILTHIEST mouth and you’re like sureeee mate.

But … I WAS HERE FOR IT ALL🔥🔥

Give me the alphahole, millionaire, ice-king, steam to the billionth degree, morally grey, grumpy/sunshine, possessive and toxic tropes any day of the week💅🏼

🌟🌟🌟🌟 #muchrecommend 

Be sure to check the trigger warnings before diving into this one.

I used to think practicing gratitude was lame. Eve I used to think practicing gratitude was lame. Even now, when I hear people talk about it, sometimes my reaction is: Okay🙄

But it DOES help me, especially when things get stressful or I’m overwhelmed. When I think I’m out of my depth, or I start comparing my journey to someone else’s, or I start fretting about the future … taking a moment to be grateful for what I have and how far I’ve come, brings me calm. 

I try and do this every time I sit on the beach, cos I am LUCKY to live where I live. It might be hippy and uncomfortable for some of us, but I recommend taking a few minutes each day to do it. 

Do you actively practice gratitude? Do you journal or meditate or sit with it?✨
