Obligatory Introduction

*waves madly*

Hello everyone! I'm Jade Carver (my puneriffic pseudonym) and I blog about makeup and girly things over at Jade goes with everything. I was intending that blog to be a platform for my many obsessions, but the beauty blog is a tight-knit network, and I found  the whole vibe a bit limiting for my rabid and rather feminist love of all things literary. So I decided that my love/hate relationship with comics, novels, articles, poetry and let's face it, anything involving WORDS, needed its own space.

I'm going to start with cross-posting all relevant bits from my other blog, and then hopefully I'll start being able to review the stacks of stuff I have read recently, and I'll catch up with my unread pile. I blame it on university - usually I read something as soon as I get my hands on it.

This blog will be a mix of reviews, rants, and chronicles of my own journey as a writer, research addict, slush reader and comic book publishing intern. I hope you will join me and be entertained, enlightened and infuriated (hopefully not all at once).

If you blog about comics, especially with a critical slant, please drop me a line in the comments so I can check you out! Book reviewers, and those embarking on their own literary/artistic journey are also more than welcome. We crazy types oughta stick together.
