Hello there and welcome to my little Hobbit hole! Who am I, you may ask? My name is Hope Jakala. And well, for starters, I am a lore-keeper of Middle-Earth, a Keeper of History for Cybertron, and a Jedi Knight fighting for the good of the galaxy. I love to curl up with a good novel, losing myself in a brand-new world. Ever since I was a wee little gremlin I loved to dive into fantastical places and feel my blood rush as I turned each page. I want others to experience the same joy and wonder that I feel when I pick up these gems we call books.

When I’m not thinking up the next beautiful world and the tear-jerking, heart-felt characters that will inhabit it, you can find me skiing atop the world’s greatest snow in the gorgeous Wasatch Mountains in the Salt Lake Valley, or experiencing the colorful canopies of gold, scarlet, and ambers of the forests in the fall. I try to act like a Disney Princess by watching over the wildlife that’s abundant here, and love to hike (yes, I’ve seen huge snakes, yes I’ve seen cougar tracks and yes I am scared each time I encounter them). Here’s to many more adventures together, friends! Cheers!
