Archive of All Posts on Fae’s Journal
Fae’s Journal has been around since 2018, actually for far longer as my life got busy and I lost the old blog due to a lapse in hosting. So it resurrected in 2018 and this archive starts then. Fae’s Journal is archived in its entirety here. All the posts on Fae’s Journal. There’s no categorization, just a list of every single post.
What is Fae’s Journal All About?
I write reviews on my blog, Goodreads, Bookbub, Amazon, and more. Read my review policy and submit a contact form for more info on that. Fae’s Journal details my life and my interests: crochet, gaming, education, Athens, Georgia and my search for the best whatever I am shopping for at the moment. Take a look around, lots to see here.
