Hey, I'm Diamond. I love sharing stories. Some of my best characters have their own blog featuring them: Build a Bears Furever. It might be "weird" that I have a stuffed animal blog, but to me, they're some of my most vivid and lifelike characters. If you enjoy stories of any genre, I recommend checking that blog out! You can check out my blogs below. I'm obsessed with all things Marvel, including Guardians of the Galaxy and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. I also enjoy Star Wars, and Disney. I love to travel, take photos, read, play video games, and I also bullet journal. Check out my blogs if you'd like to know more!
