It’s the weekend once again! What are you up to? If it were up to me, I’d be traveling. However, due to a number of circumstances, one of which being another batch of snow, I’m staying in. So I’m heading out on a virtual, fictional vacation. Where are you heading this weekend? Ankh-Morpork can be … interesting, this time of…

If you’ve read just about any of my previous posts, then you know I’m a total fangirl when it comes to the Mass Effect and Dragon Age series. But those aren’t the only games I play! Aside from the handful of mobile games I check in with on the daily (Where are my fellow Covet Fashion and/or Gardenscapes addicts?), I…

It’s no secret that there’s a bunch a readers here at Speculative Chic. Asking our writers what their favorite read of 2017 seemed like an easy task, but it wasn’t. When you read as many books as we do, how do you pick just one? And did it have to be a book published in 2017, or just a book…

Hello hello hello! Welcome to Saturday! Have you had a busy week? We have! But our writers were still hard at work to bring you fresh content daily for all of last week. Missed something? Never you fear, dear. As always, I am your humble guide to the week that was. Onward!

Every year on Christmas Eve, my friends and family perform an epic rendition of “The Twelve Days of Christmas.” People group up and choose numbers. We have a conductor. It’s loud and ridiculous, and probably the reason this idea popped into my head. So, my friends, come forth and join me in a chorus of “The Twelve Days of Spec…
