I can’t believe it’s been an entire year since we kicked things off here at Chicks With Crossbows. Technically the anniversary falls on Tuesday, but who celebrates on a Tuesday? It’s been an awesome ride so far and I look forward to more years of blogging with these lovely ladies, going to cons and book …
Just when I thought I was being lazy about making new blogs posts, someone was horribly wrong on the internet and has induced both feminist AND nerd rage. That’s a pretty impressive level of heinous douchebaggery right there. The person wrong on the internet is this dude right here. While he attempts to offer criticism …
Hey, y’all. It’s Friday and I’m knackered enough to use the word ‘knackered’ because I can’t think of another word that fits. Here are some great things to read over your Saturday morning cereal tomorrow or with a glass of wine and slice of pizza tonight. Whatever makes you happy. First, Anime June discusses the …
Also known as, “Dude, do you ever go outside, because clearly you have way too much time on your hands?” Today my post is of the list-y type, because A) I am a nerd who loves lists and B) y’all are probably sick of my book reviews right now. Also, Tori said it was okay. …

While I was visiting my boyfriend’s family over the holidays, I had the joy of meeting his 86-year-old grandmother. I always love meeting elderly folks such as her because there is always a small chance that in their youth they may have shared my passion of Lindy hop (swing dancing). When I asked her about …
This might surprise you guys, given that I write for a geek girl blog, but I’m kind of a huge nerd. Like, gigantic. And I’m not afraid of making a fool of myself. Besides, if I’m honest, I’ve been searching for a secret door to Narnia since 3rd Grade. This weekend I went to San …
FIRST! Some acknowledgements: 2011 was the year this blog started. It began because my friend Jon and I had a conversation during which I realized the best way to be a part of an awesome Geek Girl Blog was to create one. I’m a huge geek. And I have lots of lady friends who are …
A while ago, the internet erupted like a volcano when new Twilight-themed covers were put on the classic novel Wuthering Heights. This is because it’s the one book Bella has actually read, despite supposedly being an avid reader. I thought it was a stroke of marketing genius. I mean, check it out: It even says …
EEP! You guys. How is November speeding by so quicky? It’s insane. There’s too much to do. I have pies to bake, and work to attend, and cleaning to do, and also a zero draft to finish. I’m going strong at 32K and will be on par at 33k+ by tonight. I’ve also hit the …
