Sometimes you need something to represent you, say a team. But you don’t have anything. I made a crest to symbolize myself. Three things I but on my Crest are symbols, values, and a motto. So let's start with the symbols on my crest. They are a hook, a key, a bow, and an arrow. The hook means I like to fish a lot. The key means I can open up new paths for myself and choose where I want to go. The bow means I am watchful from afar. The arrow means me watching can’t always be a good thing. Next up…

Mosquitoes will think they hit the jackpot when they find a ripped screen to come through. If you don't want to be a…

Bad Boy Vibes by H.M Irwing is a thrilling trilogy that is made up of three books; Heartaches, Heartaches 2 and Heartaches 3. I was tempted to refer to this series as a triangle of books.
