My blog is about geeky things: video & board game reviews, anime reviews, cosplay, geek fashion, and more.  I even do yearly 3- Day Challeges that centre on geek subjects like anime and video games.  I just released that a new series called Mental Health in the Geek Community where I tackle strategies for things like burn out, self care, making friends as an adult and more.

I asked Megan for some of the favourite blog posts that she has written…

Saturday Shout Out – Loved By Millie

loved by millie

Today’s Saturday Shout Out goes to a new to me blogger called Millie who blogs over at Loved By Millie.  Millie has been running her blog for the past 5 months (since Feb 1st!), her blog is a lifestyle blog focusing on small, independent businesses, local businesses and small shops.  I think that it is so important to support local businesses and stores, whether online or by visiting in person, these places are the personality of our high streets and set one town apart from another!  It is such a refreshing change and so lovely being able to hop on over to her blog to find smaller businesses to support rather than just buying from big chain stores!

Some of Millie’s favorite posts that she has written are

I am a twin, I have a degree in fashion buying and merchandising and I love working people within my local area!

You can find Millie over on Instagram – @lovedbymilliex  or you can email her on lovedbymilliex@outlook.com

3 Things About Yourself!

When I was younger I had an imaginary friend called George, one day we had an argument when travelling home from the beach, we were driving over the Severn Bridge at the time. I wound down the car window and threw him out and into the river from the moving car, and that was the end of my imaginary friend.

When people meet my brother and I they always assume that he’s the oldest but in truth he’s 27 months younger than me!

Since starting this blog I am amazed daily by how much I really enjoy writing and creating content, thinking and planning and am a little bit proud of where my blog has come in such a small amount of time.

Rory’s Five Questions

Which is your least favourite mode of transportation?

I don’t think I have a least favourite mode of transport, though the short distance busses that transport people around the local area were never particularly pleasant at one point and I’m really glad that I can drive rather than rely on them!

Why, oh why why why did the chicken cross the road?

He didn’t like the path he was on.

What is the stupidist thing you have ever done – voluntarily?

Used de-icer on the inside window screen of my VW Polo to defrost the window. It used to leak in the rain and come winter the condensation would freeze to the inside of the screen and it took agars to clear. The de-icer ran down into the air vents which, when turned on, turned the de-icer to vapour which I breathed in…. please don’t try that at home kids….

When you have left this planet, as in your life ends, what do you think is next ….?

I don’t know if anyone has seen The Good Place but… well, that. I’m sure I’d be Eleanor Shellstrop!

At what age do you think you actually became an adult?

Ummmmmmm…I’m still waiting to find that one out myself… the answer is a mystery!

My Five Questions

What is the biggest lesson you have learned in your time blogging?

If you could travel to any planet which one would it be and how would you get there?

Do you ever give your cars (or other transportation) names?

What’s your weirdest habit?

What are your 3 desert island must haves?
