Hello fellow book lovers! My name is Rachel Leibovich and in 2024, I set out to fall in love with reading once again. I originally fell out of reading after doing so many years of collegiate and post-collegiate study where I was always reading on a deadline and always reading with my eye for critique and analysis. Although the words I read sparked my mind and challenged me to think deeply, I wasn't having that "soul on fire" feeling that I used to have as a kid. At the behest of my friends, I finally picked up a book in a genre I didn't even know existed - "Romantacy" (aka Romance-Fantasy, or fantasy with a strong romance plot). In January I rang in the New Year with a goal of reading 100 books. You can follow along my journey on TikTok, Goodreads, and by following along with the book reviews I post here.
The more I read, the more I realized that every person has a story to share, so I decided to take my journey a step further and create writing groups and book clubs to help us all connect and share the joy of world-building, character creation, and storytelling.
Are you looking for a no frills and off the cuff run down of the classic romance-fantasy tropes so you can find just the right book to settle down with? We got your back.
Everyone has a story to tell - why are you waiting to put yours into words? Not your average writers circle - this club meets once per month to chat about writing struggles, ideas, and get advice from fellow novice writers.
