400 Followers Celebration Post & My BookTube channel

Hey there, my lovelies!!!

I know three exclamation marks is very enthusiastic but OMG I am very excited right now! On the one hand I recently hit the huge number of 400 Followers on WordPress and on the other hand I actually went for my own BookTube channel and recently posted my first video! So YAY! =)))

To be entirely honest I didn’t think I’d reach either of those goals so I’m really happy I actually did! I think to understand my enthusiasm I have to give some sort of backstory here, otherwise you might just think I’m weird. (Oh, well, you already do that, right? *lol*) Anyway!

I don’t know about you but when I started on WordPress about 2 1//2 years ago I was a total newbie (weren’t we all?) and had no idea what I was doing. I saw all those amazing blogs and they were all so unique and special and really nice to read. So I thought I want my blog to be a nice and safe space too, where people can read and skim through my content and enjoy a couple of minutes without any stress or commitment. I saw those huge blogs with so many followers and thought: Oh boy, I’ll probably never get there but it will be fun to try. So I started my blog, drew my fox and my paws rating, made some banners on Canva and just went with the flow. Back then I admired the blogs that had 400 Followers because, wow that was a lot for me! And that’s exactly the reason why I’m so excited right now, because I’ve hit that number that always felt so HUGE! And tell you what? It still feels pretty huge! *lol*

So after reaching this goal and thanks to a lot of support not only from the goodreads community but also from my family and friends I finally decided to go for my own BookTube channel. For now there’s just an introduction video and I already know that I still have a lot to learn! XD This said I know I can do better and I’ll try my best to make this work. And before you even ask: Of course I’ll continue with my wordpress blog because it’s my baby and I just love to write and to chat with you guys. I see my BookTube channel as some sort of extension to my blog and I’m sure this will be a great opportunity to broaden my horizon!

This said: Is there some content you’d want to see either on my blog or on my BookTube? I’m open for every idea! =) I can’t really do a giveaway at the moment but I’ll definitely give you guys a shout-out on my channel! XD I pondered the idea of another Q & A but I don’t know if you guys would be up for it? I suppose I could even answer them in video form since I have BookTube now. *lol* What I can already say is: THANK YOU!!! To all of you, no matter how short or how long you’ve been following me! ❤ ❤ ❤

So what do you think? Talk to me and let me know! =)

And as always try to stay healthy and safe!

Hermione Granger – 250 Followers Celebration

Hey there my lovelies! 😀

When I hit 250 Followers on my blog I gave you three different options to chose from and the majority of you wanted me to draw a bookish character. So I collected all your suggestions and threw them in a bowl.

Well, Hermione Granger won and I tackled the task of drawing her for you. 😉 This said there are a few things I need to say before I present you the drawing:

1.) It’s been ages I last drew a manga character so I was a little bit out of practice which explains why it took me so long to go for this. Also I’ve a lousy time management. *lol* I mean there are already 55 more of you and I only managed to post this now. *facepalm*

2.) I still can’t draw hands, legs and feet! Bear with me? XD No, really I suck at it, but I guess I’ve to live with it. (Well, me and you. 😉 )

3.) I wish I could have gone for more details but urgh time is not my friend so Hermione’s wand looks pretty plain. But hey at least her tie and hair are amazing! 😛

Okay, enough of procrastinating and avoiding your verdict. Here goes nothing!

*takes a deep breath*

I hope you like my manga version of Hermione! I know there are about a thousand people who can draw better but I tried my best! XD

*hugs’n’kisses*

P.S: I’ll go for a bookish giveaway to celebrate 300 followers soon! So please stay tuned! =)

P.P.S: I have no idea how this even happened but I’m so, so thankful for each and every one of you! Thank you so much for following my blog and a warm welcome to all of those new faces! 😀 And of course also lots of love to the „old guard“. 😛 Without you I wouldn’t even have come that far! ❤

250 Followers Celebration!

Hey there my lovelies!

So about two weeks ago I wrote a 250 followers celebration post (how come it are 265 now? *lol* Anyway! Let’s not challenge my luck. XD) and gave you the opportunity to choose from three different celebration options. 🙂

As it seems most of you want me to draw fan art so fan art it’s going to be! 😛 The only question that’s left to ask is: Which character should I draw?! And here is where you come into play! Let me know which bookish characters I should go for! You can write down your suggestions in the comments and I’ll put them all into a bowl so I can pull out one of them.

It’s been a while I last drew things in manga style so bear with me. It might take quite some time until you’ll be able to see the final result. I still hope it will be worth it though. *lol* I’ll definitely try my best to make this work! 😉 (I can already tell my inner perfectionist isn’t going to let me off the hook easily.)

Anyway! Let’s do this! I’m looking forward to all of your suggestions and ideas!

Fire away! XD

P.S: Doomslug and Hermione Granger are already in the bowl. 😉

200 followers celebration post

Hey there, my lovelies!

I can’t believe there are already 200 of you out there! When did this happen? Not all too long ago I celebrated 150 followers with a giveaway and now 50 of you joined my blog once again! 🙂

This is AMAZING!!! I thought I might get a 100 followers until the end of 2019 and here you are, double the size I anticipated and I couldn’t be more excited! ❤ I’m so glad you guys seem to enjoy my blog and I’m trying my very best to keep it running! (Even if it’s difficult sometimes because my kid, work and life in general are keeping me quite busy. >_<)

Anyway! The last time when I hit a 100 followers I gave you a chance to ask me some questions and because it was so much fun to answer them I’m doing a second round now! 😉 I mean there are 100 more of you now and I’m sure you might have some questions too! *lol* As I said the last time, there’s only so much you can write down in your „About Me“ section and there are usually only the basics.

So once again: Whatever you want to ask me, I’m here and will answer your questions honestly and truthfully in one of my next blog posts!

(Or at least as honest and truthful as a cunning and silver tongued faerie like me can answer them. 😛 I gave that warning the last time and only found it fair to mention it again. XD)

Ask me about my fave colour, hobbies, book, the meaning of life (even though I’m not quite sure if I’ll be able to answer that one) or whatever floats your boat! This is your chance to get some answers to questions you never dared to ask! (Yes, plural. You’re allowed to ask more than one question if you want, but I doubt I’m that interesting. *lol*)

This said: Fire away! I’m ready! Or as ready as I’ll ever be!
