The Pretty Files: Winter Skincare
I was looking at the weather forecast tonight and discovered that much to my near-horror, they are calling for snow and/or ice this week. Snow! Ice! I’ve managed to avoid turning on my furnace for anything more than a cursory knock-the-chill-of-the-morning-off moment, but I strongly suspect that is about to change. I’m still in a […]
Does Lightning Strike Twice for Marvel’s Thor: The Dark World?
It’s easy to forget that there was a time when a comic book movie was lucky to make a profit at the box office but now these movies are considered flops if they don’t make back their production budget in a week! Thor: The Dark World is the latest Marvel/Disney love child to dominate the […]

10 Books Every Child Should Read
Reading is one of those things people either love or do their best to avoid. I’m slightly obsessed with books. When I was little I read pretty much anything I could get my hands on, and I think it was my parents who instilled in me a love of reading that I still very much […]
One Month Novel, One Big Journey: NaNoWriMo
The Great American Novel (or German or Canadian or French or Insert-Your-Nation-Here). The desire to be a writer of one is so strong a desire and so fervent a goal for many that the phrase is both cliché and the symbol of futility. Writing, particularly in the hallowed form of the novel, is considered to […]

Janna Does TIFF: Can A Song Save Your Life?
Earnestly sweet, musical-based films set in New York City tend to be one of two things: overbearingly saccharine and sentimental, or touching and beautiful. I wasn’t expecting much from Can A Song Save Your Life?, but to my delight, it turned out to be the latter.
