This Stories Turned Into Food? It was ‘Agatha All Along’.
Well, hello there again. Long time, no see, isn’t it? For that I can only sincerely apologize—especially to the rare people out there who were actually following this blog. You see what happened is—I threw myself too heavily into the murder of a woman that showed up just outside my…
‘Descendants: The Rise of Red’ Just Came Out. Let’s Review It! (Spoilers)
Well… that was definitely a thing that I watched. Okay, joking aside, was ‘Descendants: The Rise of Red’ the worst thing I’ve ever watched? Not even close. The core premise of the story actually had the potential to be—dare I say it—great—but similar to some other scenes in the…
The DGT: Divorced, Group Therapy (A Short Story)
Christina wasn’t trying to figure these things out for an actual purpose. She wasn’t a spy working undercover to find a thief. She wasn’t infiltrating a secret organisation. She was a stressed and worried woman who kept twisting her fingers together as if she was going to snap them off,…
The Character’s Strike (Back): Part 5
Rachel stopped writing to take a sip of her coffee. As she sipped she grimaced and stared down at the cup in her hand. It was cold? How long ago had she made this that it was already stone cold? How long had she been writing for? She found the…
I Make ‘The Bear’s’ Omelette (and an Update)
Recently I started watching ‘The Bear’ on Disney Plus. Am I late to the party? Of course I am. Truth be told I avoided this show for so long because I thought it would be in more of the realm of the ‘depressing-adult-sex-and-drugs’ style show I was used to seeing…
Who is The Literary Onion?
The temptation to write ‘Wouldn’t you like to know…’ here is extremely strong but I’ll try and be a bit sensible about it (which is a break from my norm, so bear with me). I’m a writer (always in training) and chef (fully trained), trying desperately to earn a living doing the things I’m ‘good’ at and fighting against anxiety daily. Oh, and I’m also taking my mother along for the ride (she offered, I swear). I was born in the middle of you’ll-never-know, UK and now live in the middle of an-introvert’s-dream, France. Occasionally, I may bring them up so I just thought you should know in case I do. Other things that may be brought up are: my silly dog, my greedy cats, my lovely niece (the only person in the world to ever think I was in any way ‘the best’), my hopefully-doesn’t-read-this big sister and my parents.
I hope you enjoy reading. If you do, consider following my page, liking and leaving comments (especially if you have ideas for reviews or recipes etc.). I apologise for the adverts in advance. I have to put them there to try and gain a sliver of income. If you want to help out with that more, you’ll find a donation section at the bottom of each page– and thank you in advance if you do. Thank you for reading,
