I have returned from my holiday to the palace among the clouds. My chin is sharper and my mind is as well. My feet are on the ground now and I am no longer a child. It’s still me, but I am growing up and my blog must too.

Hi. I’m Leanne.
I was previously on another WordPress site, but recently I came to realise that I’ve outgrown my old blog and probably should set up a new one. New introductions, it seems, should be the next order of business.
I am a writer and a romantic and a feminist and an academic and I really love chocolate. I drink tea but not coffee and I like cats more than dogs. I don’t like the rain because it makes the air feel wet. I fall in love with images of people but never people themselves, because the truth is simply that people in and of themselves aren’t really worth falling so hard for.
I have social anxiety but have never been to a therapist because the thought of actually addressing my mental health issues terrifies me. Sometimes I can’t sleep and fall into long bouts of depression. Sometimes I can’t believe how beautiful life is.
Words are my one true love. They’ve always been there for me.
The long and short of it is that I’m a complex individual. I have highs and lows and I have passions and pet peeves and a boatload of problems.
If I guess right, I’m a lot like you.
I hope you find some interest in this blog. Leave word if you do. If you don’t, I love nothing more than I love constructive feedback.
If you’re looking for fictional work, you can check out my Wattpad account. There’s a completed historical fiction series available to read there, as well as an ongoing chicklit/romance/fanfiction novel which I update on a fortnightly basis.
If you’re looking for poems, click this link to get to my Instagram account. I write a lot of love poems, both long and short. Right now all my poems are centred around this one guy…but I won’t reveal too much.
If you’re looking to connect with me, find me on Twitter at @8leanne8writes.
If you’re looking for a stranger’s innermost thoughts as an emerging adult just trying to figure out what life is, just stay here.
Love,
Leanne
