The wonderful @lbardugo has a really great tradition of starting the new year off spending a little time doing things that you want to do going forward into the new year. She calls it, “Begin as you mean to go on.” You can learn more about it by heading to her Instagram or checking out #baymtgo. 🖤 One of the things that I am being intentional about doing today is taking care of all the little piles of things that I have around the house that I always plan to go through “eventually.” Of course eventually never comes and I find myself just moving these annoying little piles around my house and letting it stress me out. No more of that in 2023! 🖤 I have had two piles of #grishaverse goodies sitting on my living room floor since Fall! I kept meaning to take the time to take pictures of it to share here. Since these are @lbardugo related this seemed like the day to post it. 🖤 The first photo shows some wonderful goodies that @fiercereads sent to celebrate the 10 year anniversary of Shadow and Bone, as well as the collectors edition. 🖤 The second picture shows the many goodies I came home with after attending the Grisha Gala to celebrate ten years in October. The photos after that are just a few of the highlights from that incredible event. (I also included a split photo of the very first time I met Leigh back before Shadow and Bone came out and the two of us at the Grisha Gala.) 🖤 Finally, I had to find room in my Grisha box (from when Ruin and Rising was released) to store my new goodies and get them off my floor!😂 It made me feel all nostalgic so there’s a photo of a few of my favorite things that I’ve picked up over the years at different events or been sent by amazing friends and @fiercereads. 🖤 I’m very much looking forward to bringing positive habits into the new year, and at least another 10 years of stories from Leigh! https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm40A4cLsDZ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
