Something I absolutely love about the city of Austin is that everything has personality. From restaurants to community spaces and even our main grocery store (this is actually a love letter to H-E-B), nowhere feels copy-and-pasted (except, of course, for chains and franchises, and even those usually have some Austin flavor).

My Favorite Books: Romance Edition
This round-up of my favorite romance books seemed appropriate for February, especially as Valentine’s Day approaches.

When I was compilingContinue reading “My Favorite Books: Romance Edition”
Books I Think Deserve More Hype

For obvious reasons, I tend to lean toward writing fantasy novels as well. Hey, you can take the girlContinue reading “My Favorite Books: Fantasy Edition”

My Top 8 Reads of 2024
Last year, I read 195 books. Frankly, that’s an excessive amount. Some were total misses (we’ll circle back to these in another post), and some were absolute rock stars that I’m still thinking about months later. To start 2025 on a high note, I’m going to reflect on my favorite books I read in 2024—nay,Continue reading “My Top 8 Reads of 2024”
Introducing Myself
Hello and welcome!! I’m Delaney—a long-time reader and first-time author. I created Sequels & Scribbles because books have shaped who I am today. Through devouring every book I can find and writing my second full-length novel, I’ve discovered that stories have an incredible power to transform perspectives, spark creativity, and unite people. That’s why I’mContinue reading “Introducing Myself”
