Hi, I’m Katie – Welcome to my Literature Corner!
![☕Here's a sneak peek for a project I've been working on!👀
Hint: it's an Audiobook
Daughter of the Deep by Lina C. Amarego
Coming soon.
[P.S. put sound on to hear me attempting to be a siren]
⚓Do you like listening to audiobooks?⚓](https://scontent-lcy1-1.cdninstagram.com/v/t51.29350-15/245679906_274918617849669_5672886598064205239_n.jpg?_nc_cat=106&ccb=1-5&_nc_sid=8ae9d6&_nc_ohc=m8hsmK7hxFgAX_qs-t_&_nc_ht=scontent-lcy1-1.cdninstagram.com&edm=ANo9K5cEAAAA&oh=56c5a59e5715f47f9c5976d6734ea8cf&oe=617EF4D2)
![✨It's my Bookstaversary!🥳✨
Well, it was actually yesterday, but the first ever photo I shared - of the book Jane Eyre - was no doubt posted late at night on the 11th, so it still counts😂 Rather poetically, it was another Jane - my wise and wonderful friend @jannath.fazli - who reminded me! See, this is why I need you folks around😆
Ready for the sappy caption? Here we go!
Two years ago, when I was inspired to start this account, I couldn't have predicted how much of a magical impact it would have.
That sounds dramatic, but I was thinking this morning how much Bookstagram has shaped my life over the past year. (I say year, because I didn't properly *get into* posting until last October.)
Thanks to this community, I:
•started writing a book
•began a writing blog
•set up a Society for creators & dreamers
•got my first art commission [thanks Nay!!]
•became *an audiobook narrator* (my first proper paid job!) [Lina, literally where was I before I knew you]
•got to develop my creativity [thank you Kaby, Alysha and Beatriz for the impact our regular calls have had on that]
•discovered new story-worlds & creators
I think we'll agree that this community is something special. All of you are thoughtful, generous, talented and inspiring. I love that we can share snippets from our worlds, embrace our creativity, and be ourselves here. We 'get' each other. Often, after spending time interacting with you all, I forget how different much of the "real world" is - then I'm reminded when I have to return to it😂
Being part of this community has been so enriching, opening up a whole new dimension to my life. I never imagined that I'd find such a hub of like-minded people - who care deeply, think carefully, and uplift others unconditionally.
I can't imagine my life without the friends I've made here - those I chat to in DMs (with your patience, waiting for my sporadic replies😜), exchange memes, laugh and fangirl with, those I check in with, and those who are soul-sisters whom I know I'll keep for life. I am so honoured to call you friends❤️
While Instagram has its downsides, I am so grateful for what it has brought to my life - all of you, and all of this!🌞✨](https://scontent-lcy1-1.cdninstagram.com/v/t51.29350-15/245231819_554574565774116_7642439915714374904_n.jpg?_nc_cat=105&ccb=1-5&_nc_sid=8ae9d6&_nc_ohc=J6-kfvQ_AIwAX-YDLsD&_nc_ht=scontent-lcy1-1.cdninstagram.com&edm=ANo9K5cEAAAA&oh=17121f145c7e941a0e04f1819e47873c&oe=617EDA51)
