TYMNHS: Raya and the Last Dragon

In this edition of Things You Might Not Have Seen (TYMNHS), I will talk about the animated movie Raya and the last dragon. I realized I haven’t done a TYMNHS blog post in a long, long time. I feel like Sisu the dragon waking up after five hundred years lol. I can’t believe I delayed

TYMNHS: Encanto

It has been a while, but for this edition of Things You Might Not Have Seen, I will talk about Bruno… I mean, talk about the animated film, Encanto. 😁 My emotions are a bit high as I just finished watching this beautiful film. The colors, the music, the Madrigals family were all enchanting. Encanto

TYMNHS: The Butterfly Lovers (Liang Zhu) (2004)

I was listening to 100 ways by Jackson Wang (which has a great music video), and it reminded me of an animation I had seen a few years ago. I will feature it in today’s Things You Might Not Have Seen blog post. I had to search through my 100+ posts to make sure I

TYMNHS: Swipe right for Murder by Polly Harris

I think I realized something… these past few weeks I was suffering from marketing/writing/everything else burnout. I was just in denial of how much it was affecting me.

TYMNHS: The Secret Life of Walter Mitty

For this edition of things you might not have seen, I thought I would highlight a great movie: The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. If you could live a great life, what would it look like? Walter Mitty daydreams; his imagination taking him to fantastical locations, and placing him in the centre of heart-pounding adventures.

TYMNHS: Animated short, Bao

For this edition of Things You Might Not Have Seen, I will talk about the Pixar animated short, Bao (2018). I will confess, I had a hard time writing this blog (Not because of the animation; Bao is wonderful. Everyone should watch it!) The reason for my distraction is that my mind has been consumed

TYMNHS: Animated movie, Song of the Sea

There is something about legends regarding oceans or underwater world that is as alluring as a siren’s call (or in this case, a selkie). For this edition of Things You Might Not Have Seen, I will talk about the animated fantasy film, Song of the Selkie, directed by Tomm Moore. Song of the Sea is

TYMNHS: Joanna Penn’s The Successful Author Mindset

For this edition of Things You Might Not Have Seen, I will talk about the book The Successful Author Mindset: A Handbook For Surviving the Writer’s Journey by Joanna Penn. A successful mindset is important in any career; it makes sense in writing too. Joanna Penn highlights problems that haunt authors, such as self-doubt, comparisonitis,

TYMNHS: Voilà by Barbara Pravi

For this edition of Things You Might Not Have Seen, I will talk about the song lyrics for Voilà by Barbara Pravi. I rarely watch tv, but when I do, I somehow stumble upon gems. This year I caught the Eurovision song contest and the song represented by France. Let us just say that my
