Welcome to my old blog!

Hello there, stranger!

You've found my old blog!

This is the place where I tried out blogging for the very first time in 2021 and completely fell in love with it.

The Storyteller's Citadel was private for a while, but there's several sweet posts here that I'm really proud of and don't mind others reading, so it's back up for you to enjoy! And even though I no longer post here, I still get comment notifications. So if you'd like to strike up a fun conversation about something you read here, go right ahead! I'd love to chat with you!

Nowadays I spend my time writing over at With Joy for the Work and sharing aesthetics and songs at Twilight Skies and Ocean Waves. So if you'd like to keep up with me, that's where to find me!

Dearest, have a wonderful rest of your day and happy archive reading!

Remember, dear heart, we are all between the paws of the one true Aslan.

Hello, everyone! And welcome back to my blog! 

I know we are well into the New Year by this point, but allow me to wish you a happy one anyway!

~In Which the hopeful maiden Says Hello :) ~

   

     Hello!!

~~In which the hopeful maiden wishes you a Merry Christmas~~

  Oh, December, you magical month! 

The shining crown of snow atop a mountain of life lived in all the months past. 

December, you bring chances to look back, and to anticipate forwards. To celebrate the year and the birthday of the Prince of Peace. 

                                                         Oh, December, you magical month!
