In a strained effort to finally do something I love and want to share and perhaps be proud of one day, I am going to try and ‘blog’

  1. To connect, communicate and engage with the online social community in a way I feel most comfortable.
  2. To begin creating a portfolio, compiling my thoughts, ideas and projects and creating a safe space for my work.
  3. To use this forum as a way revolutionise how we interact with one another, an opportunity to accept and learn from the mistakes made and to be supportive.

I’m a chatty person so feel free to drop me a message or an email if you want a chat about books or a rant to get them feels off your chest that non-bookish people cannot relate to

I’m Louise, 22, and recent university graduate from the quaint little city of Aberdeen on the North-East coast of Scotland. This is a place for all things bookish; reviews, book hauls, competitions for book related stuff (or just books). I will post about things that interest me but I am limited to my own knowledge and I am always happy for recommendations for new books and series. I mostly stick with young adult/teen fiction, romance, some horror and funny quirky things.

I look forward to reconnecting with old friends and making new ones by keeping this blog current

Keywords: blogging, Always Write

Blogging made me take more interest in everyday things. I took more pictures than I ever had in my life, more than 37,000 of them, most of which I could throw away, but I’m a hoarder. Without my WordPress.org site, I have one less place to hoard. 🙂

Engaging in conversations takes effort and with today’s fast paced world where everyone is busy, we are required to exercise our judgment on the connections that we would like to nurture – and, conversations are a great way of doing so

Keywords: Lifestyle & Relationships

Do we need to have connections to have conversations OR do conversations build connections? Which comes first?

I don’t know, but let’s find out

Keywords: leadership

  1. No one ever changed their perspective by spending time with only people who are exactly like them. If you are a leader, you may find that you’re coming out ahead in power imbalances, so do what you can to seek out others.
  2. Share the foundations first. When offering plans for next steps, always come prepared to share how you got there. Letting others know that you have done some thinking, gives them the courage to ask you to think about other things as well.
  3. Don’t rush the unknown. No one likes being unsure of what to do next, but when we rush through uncertainty it can lead us to solutions that are limited in their effect on the problem. Get comfortable with growth mindsets and fearless exploration.
  4. Listen twice as much as you speak. One of the characteristics that all my favorite leaders have in common is their thirst for information. They ask questions from everyone, they comment last, and they do their best to disagree constructively.
