wiggling with BrainyHeroine
put your wiggling worms together for wormfluencer BrainyHeroine, a reader who is finding genuine enjoyment in books again π«Άππ»
BrainyHeroine is mayβs featured wormfluencer. they are an avid reader (likely read over 2000 books by now!!) with an eye for detail. besides reading and writing 24/7, BrainyHeroine offers services as a beta reader, book editor, writing consultant, and book curator! check out their insta for more info ππ
every month, youβll meet a new wormfluencer: a wormie who embraces their favorite reads, delivers hot takes, and recruits more worms π«‘
What are your bookish reading habits? (ie a cup of earl grey tea while you read, need to read outside, etc.)
I absolutely love going on reading dates with my partner, I love reading in bed and in the park. I am always the first to get in the car for a bookstore date and honestly an indie store crawl totally tops a bar crawl. Give me a hot bevvy and lil sweet treat and I'll be glued to my book for ages.
