5th Week Update: END OF WINTER

Hey authors! Welcome back to my 5th Week Update series! This is only the third post so far, but I've been enjoying writing these so much. I'm definitely going to be continuing this in the foreseeable future!

Without further ado, let's get straight into it!

Milestones 

• If you don't already know, I'm Aussie, so it's Winter over here as I type. Why am I bringing this up, you ask? Well, this post is the last one for Winter 2020. *applauds self for surviving another three months* 
  I'm actually typing this in advance, but when this goes up on my blog, I'll be celebrating with chocolates and watching a movie. We've got to take any chance to celebrate, amirite?
  
  
• This post is also the 37th post I've written. It's not a lot compared to other bloggers, but I'm still going to celebrate. I'm improving! Extra chocolate for moi! 
  
  
• For the last few posts I've written, I've made slight changes to how I do the title. I've caps locked important bits instead of doing everything in the standard, boring way.

  In my eyes, it makes a load of difference, but what do you think?
  
  
• I'm also experimenting with my pins. Again. Stay tuned to see where I take it! (haha)

Updates

• As I stated in the intro, I'm going to be continuing this series. Firstly, it gives me a chance to give you guys an update on my blog.
  Secondly, these posts are easier to write and gives me a break from writing my normal posts. It typically takes me around three hours to write a normal post and another half hour to do all the prep for posting. It leaves me tuckered out by the end of it. It's strange, because I don't feel this way after writing a story, haha. These posts only take an hour.
  If you guys don't like it, please let me know. If enough people are nay-sayers, I'm willing to rethink these updates. 
  
  

• I'm very much a fangirl. Fandoms are beautiful things. *starry eyes* I was thinking about doing this for my last 5th Week Update, but then I thought nah. I've changed my mind.
  The best fandom I've been introduced to this year is the highly acclaimed video game, Kingdom Hearts. I love this series even though I'm not a gamer. The story is beautiful, despite its flaws. Highly recommend watching it. Search up the series on YouTube. There's heaps of people posting movie versions with the cutscenes.
  The most recent is Jane Austen. Her books are fab. B)
  
  
• I'm in a plugging mood today. I'm not sponsored by anyone, I just love these series that much.
