Happy 1st Birthday to me!

On the 26th of August 2015 I went on an adventure and decided in a Caffe Nero, whilst shovelling cheesecake in my mouth, that now was the time to start a blog. A year on and I am still writing! I've been putting off posting for a number of reasons but then my blog's birthday came and went and I knew I needed to say something.

***Happy Birthday to yetanothersophie! ***  


I am still only a little blog sailing about in the great wide ocean of the internet just letting the current guide me. But, I would just like to thank everyone who has read or supported my blog over the past year. Slowly but surely my writing confidence has been increasing and although I am no Dickens or Austen by any stretch of the imagination, and probably never will be, this blog has given me the motivation to keep writing and to keep developing ideas instead of letting them rot in my brain space.

A year is a long time and for me to have committed to a project for such a long amount of time is a great achievement for me. Here's to hoping this keeps going!

Reflecting on my past year of blogging I decided it was time to think about some goals for the future.

Goals from here on out - 

 - Try to upload at least once a fortnight (preferable weekly but I am back at uni)

 - Share more of my stories/poems

 - Jazz up the web design!

 - Try to include more artwork/photography in my posts


Thank you once again to all of you who have stuck about this long.

Sophie

The art of being normal by Lisa Williamson - review

Image
David Piper has always been an outsider. His parents think he's gay. The school bully thinks he's a freak. Only his two best friends know the real truth - David wants to be a girl. On the first day at his new school Leo Denton has one goal - to be invisible. Attracting the attention of the most beautiful girl in Year 11 is definitely not part of that plan. When Leo stands up for David in a fight, an unlikely friendship forms. But things are about to get messy. Because at Eden Park School secrets have a funny habit of not staying secret for long . . . If a book has an interesting cover I will swarm to it like a moth to a flame. I love the look of the cover and how it so simply conveys the topics within the book. Pretty cover a side I had passed 'the art of being normal' a few times whilst wasting time in a Waterstone's and before that had heard the title in a book haul on YouTube. Every time I saw the book I put it off because either I had already bought a fai...

I'll Give You the Sun by Jandy Nelson - book review

Jude and her twin Noah are close until a tragedy drives them apart. Now they are barely speaking -  and both falling for boys they can't have. Love's complicated.   Wow. Just wow. I had seen the vivid black and yellow cover of this book in passing many times but other than acknowledging how pretty it was gave it no second thought. My friend Jenn had told me how wonderful this book was but I never managed to get round to reading it. That was until this Christmas when Jenn gifted this book to me. It's taken me a few days to write this review as when finishing I just had such strong feelings that they all came rushing forward at once and all I could say was - wow. Very rarely have I felt so strongly about a book in the past. Every time I put it down I immediately wanted to snatch it back up. I had to know more, more, more! I needed to devour this book and wished it was as easy as simply eating it. The last time I felt this way was when I was in Primary school readin...

Let's get this show on the road!

Hello there! As you may have gathered from the title of this blog my name is Sophie and I ramble. Alot. I started blogs in the past, in fact this will be my fourth blog I've started! (However not many of those blogs have ever made it past the 5th post) I'm not sure what makes me constantly give up however this time I'm determined not to. When I've blogged before I've tried to keep to a general theme and that's why I think I failed. So this blog is going to be different. This blog is going to be about anything and everything. Here's to hoping I keep this up! See you next time ~
