Tomorrow night I’m heading out of town for my first-ever writers conference (the Romance Writers of New Zealand). So excited! And also obviously I need to purchase a new notebook to take fancy writing notes in, don’t I? Hit me with recommendations to read on the plane - extra points for fantasy romance!

Photochallenge Day 7: Owlcrate Box Repurposed! I always need more shelf space, and the box is a good size to create an extra ‘shelf’. How do you organise your bookshelf? My current system is Sort Of By Colour But Mostly Wherever They Fit. 📚📚📚 #OCtrials #owlcrate #bookbox #shelfie #bookish #bookthings #bookstagram #booksofig #booksbooksbooks #booknerd #bookgram #booknerdigan

Photochallenge Day 6: Coin purse, lanyard & pin. I really like the design of this pin, which is a tiny pair of scissors. 📚📚📚 #OCtrials #owlcrate #bookish #bookthings #bookstagram #booksofig #booksbooksbooks #booknerd #bookgram #booknerdigan #bookdragon #bookspread

Puzzle in Progress. I haven't done a puzzle since I was a kid, so this was fun but RIDICULOUSLY hard lol because most of the pieces are black and white. It required careful attention to the art, but it still took me and @thestephshortcake a good several hours to get this far! 📚📚📚 #octrials #owlcrate #bookish #puzzle #bookpuzzle #thenightcircus #hollydunndesign #bookquote #erinmorgenstern #bookish #Bookstagram #BookNerd #bookwyrm

Photochallenge Day 4: Playing card fun! This deck is based on A Gathering of Shadows by VE Schwab. I have to admit I haven’t yet read it - I read A Darker Shade of Magic a long time ago, which I enjoyed a lot, but for some reason I haven’t gotten around to reading the second book. But these playing cards are nonetheless lovely, with red metallic foiling along the edges. 📚📚📚 #OCtrials #owlcrate #veschwab #agatheringofshadows #adarkershadeofmagic #bookish #bookthings #bookstagram #booksofig #booksbooksbooks #booknerd #bookgram #booknerdigan

Photochallenge Day 3: Mug & Hogwarts House! I don’t have THAT much Hogwarts house merch...or so I thought. I now feel somewhat sheepish after doing a round-up of all the Ravenclaw items I own. 📚 📚 📚 #OCtrials #owlcrateunboxing #carakozik #harrypottermug #harrypotter #bookish #bookthings #ravenclawpride #bookstagram #booksofig #booksbooksbooks #booknerd #bookgram #booknerdigan #owlcrate
