About Me
! Welcome to a place where you can get inspired to read more and have a space to relax and think about your life, goals, and whatever else our endless thinking minds make us think.
I see this blog as my safe place to share what I love doing: reading and writing: but above that, I see this as a place to connect with others through that. I hope some of these writings can make you feel happier and more present.
I am Valerie Artez, (Valeria N. Martínez Fernández) a 19-year-old Puerto Rican English Major who loves writing a little too much. When I’m not reading or writing, I’m playing the ukulele, watching musicals, at the beach, walking my dogs, and sharing with my family.
When this whole Covid-19 situation changed my lifestyle for complete, all of my plans and goals changed. Not being able to have the liberty and tools to go after my dreams, I felt I was resigned to just wait for it. But guess what? Time doesn’t stop for you. And every day is a day less you have.
That’s when The Avid Readers was born. As a combination of my passions, self-motivation, and goals. Now I want to help others to work on themselves and their goals even when things are not going that well.
What I do
Inspire
Inspire others to read more, work on their goals and, live their lives to the fullest. Being a young adult involves a lot of stress and work, but you have a say on how that will affect you.
Share
Here I will share thoughts on different things from how I see things in society to how I feel about certain topics. This is a safe space for expressing your thoughts and ideas.
Help
Help others to feel like there is hope. I want to let people know that they are not alone and that they are capable of doing wonderful things in spite of what they might have beeen told.
