The Best of 2017 and Goodbye to The Writings of Luke Reynolds

2017 was a very busy year for me. While definitely better than last year, there were still moments of utter despair and sadness that wracked our whole world. Despite that, I became involved in so many great things: my school newspaper, show choir, choir, and staff at anime club. I read through my first full-length novel and am working on revising it so I can query agents (I wanted to do that this year, but I became too busy). I had a solo at a spring theatre production, another great time at a local anime convention (and even one out of state), and read so much and watched a lot of good things and I honestly couldn't ask for anything more.

But at the same time, I realized I need to close an era of my life: this blog. While I am going to miss it, I'm not as active as I once was, and I want to move on to something that's not only professional but manageable. This is, but I guess I'm just not as interested or invested as I once was. Unfortunate, but understandable (at least I hope). But before I leave for real, I wanted to do one last Best of list because I love recapping all the wonderful things in the media I consume.

What I Read in Summer 2017

My new video is out, and it basically just counts as my summer reading recap. Curious about all the books I read from June to August? Take a look!

What's in Store for 2017-2018

Hi, everyone! I apologize yet again for not keeping things up to date here. Senior year has started for me, and I'm going to be busy once again. I will try and update this blog periodically with updates, reviews (and links), stories from my personal life, and interesting YouTube videos I've worked on. It may be a challenge with me on newspaper staff, theatre, and in choir/show choir at school, but I'm gonna try. I don't want to leave this blog in the dust with no explanation.

For my writing, I'm going to be working on two things: The Power of Three (TPoT) and revising Duet. Hopefully I will continue posting TPoT to Quotev and Wattpad and start getting the improved Duet out soon. In the meantime, I'm a reporter for my school's newspaper. If you're interested in reading the reviews and articles I've written on staff, you can look here.

For everything else, you can check out my YouTube channel.

Until next time!

My YouTube Debut

I know I've been the worst at updating this blog, but I'm back for a quick second to say that I'm officially on YouTube! It's been a couple years, and now it's time to make my official introduction! See me for real for the first time as I tell you 10 facts you may not know about me.
