[Event Review] Yama-Con 2024: Attendee Experience & Panelist Experience

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting TL/DR: Overall, Yama-Con is a solid convention. It’s a small to mid-tier convention in terms of size and scale for the South and well managed given the size of the location. Outside the convention there is also lots to do. Maybe not worth the travel if you dislike mountain driving though… Last weekend, I attended Yama-Con in Pigeon Forge, … Continue reading [Event Review] Yama-Con 2024: Attendee Experience & Panelist Experience

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting Last Thursday, I attended the 9:40 PM release of Solo Leveling: ReAwakening, which has been described as a “bridge” between Seasons 1 and 2 of the Solo Leveling anime.

[Review/Recommended Read] Not Your Typical Reincarnation Story (Spoilers!)

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting In the ever-growing world of reincarnation stories, it can be tough to find one that truly stands out. Most of these tales follow a familiar formula: a girl is reincarnated as (or transmigrates into) a villainess, meets a love interest, discovers that the original heroine is actually the main antagonist, defeats said antagonist, and eventually finds love and happiness. … Continue reading [Review/Recommended Read] Not Your Typical Reincarnation Story (Spoilers!)

[Recommended Read] The Works of Asumiko Nakamura

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting It’s challenging to recommend a series that hasn’t been officially licensed for translation, particularly an older one that may never be translated in our lifetime.

[Recommended Read] The Stellar Swordsman (Webtoon)

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting The Stellar Swordmaster by Hong Dae Ui and Juno on Webtoon has quickly become one of my favorite stories. If you know me, you’re aware of my penchant for epic tales. I love knights, sword battles, and the arduous training arcs where the protagonist genuinely earns their prowess through diligent effort rather than breezing through to overpowered levels with … Continue reading [Recommended Read] The Stellar Swordsman (Webtoon)

[Review/Recommended Read] I Woke Up as an Imprisoned Villainess (Spoilers!)

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting A few weeks ago, while reviewing newsletters in search of a new series, I came across I Woke Up as an Imprisoned Villainess. The cover was mildly engaging and reminded me of stories that often feature twins or long-lost siblings—the kind of narrative I’m a sucker for. Intrigued, I clicked the link and read the description, which revealed the … Continue reading [Review/Recommended Read] I Woke Up as an Imprisoned Villainess (Spoilers!)

[Review] How Dare You!? – Cheng He Titong: A Must-Watch Romance Drama

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting Who doesn’t love free anime—especially when it’s good? While taste is subjective, finding quality anime without breaking the bank is a win for any fan. As part of research I was doing for a panel idea of how to be a fan on a budget, I started deep-diving into legal, free streaming services like YouTube, my Peacock account that … Continue reading [Review] How Dare You!? – Cheng He Titong: A Must-Watch Romance Drama
