*checks Rose's Wrath's publication date* *sees it was March of 2020* Well, it's been a while, I'll admit that. Rose's Wrath was published to positive feedback and a deep love for many of the characters! Due to many different things, the next book, Rose's Ruin, has been MIA. I can say, though, that the first… Continue reading My Writing | It’s Official, Rose’s Ruin is Happening
Rantish Ramblings | You’re Still a Writer and I Hope You Know That
I stared at my laptop screen for what felt like the third time all year. And yet, the Google Docs page remained blank. Come on, I thought. How could I have just stopped writing? It was naive of me, looking back. Assuming that the (far) less rigorous life in high school couldn't have contributed much… Continue reading Rantish Ramblings | You’re Still a Writer and I Hope You Know That
Poetry | dear [insert]
Hello, everyone! *glances at the date of last post* Ermm... So, it's been a while. *crickets* Okay, so maybe a long while.

Rantish Ramblings | I Really Love to Write… Like, a Lot, But It’s a Bit Overwhelming
Hello, wonderful readers! It is I, Oceane, finally back (sort of) to the world of blogging.

Rantish Ramblings | Mental Health and Today’s Fiction
Hello, wonderful readers! If you know even just a little about me, you know I'm a huge advocate for mental health. I believe it such a critically important part of a healthy life, and is one that is ignored far too often, especially in Christian circles. As someone who has been in therapy for nearly… Continue reading Rantish Ramblings | Mental Health and Today’s Fiction
Rantish Ramblings | Why Reading is Hard
Hello, wonderful readers! I'm sure most of you can look back and remember middle school and high school you - going to the library, grabbing a dozen books, and reading them in two weeks. That used to be me. Though that hasn't been me in at least a year and a half. The thing is,… Continue reading Rantish Ramblings | Why Reading is Hard

Poetry | I Don’t Know How to Be Alone
Hello, wonderful readers! I know, I know, I post far more poetry than book-related things. Poetry just happens to be something I like to share often and also what's often easiest for a full-time college student. But anyway... today's poem, "I Don't Know How to Be Alone" stems from the idea that maybe loneliness is… Continue reading Poetry | I Don’t Know How to Be Alone
Review | The Forest of Hands and Teeth
Hello, wonderful readers! I'm a bit late to getting this review up, but better late than never, right? The Forest of Hands and Teeth is a book I picked up at one of my favorite second-hand book stores in my area, as well as one of my many comfort spots in general. Needless to say,… Continue reading Review | The Forest of Hands and Teeth
Writing Update | What Happened to the Rose’s War Duology?
Hello, wonderful readers! This past month I took an unexpected break from all things writing simply because I felt far too burnt out to actually put any effort into my projects. That being said, I do still plan to write. It has been my passion for my most life and it will continue to be… Continue reading Writing Update | What Happened to the Rose’s War Duology?
