The news is of course always depressing - it seems big media companies only ever want to report on the doom and gloom and horrible events of the world and rarely ever mention something good. No matter where you look it seems there … Continue reading Self-Care for Activists

This post marks 500 posts on Taylor Talks Vegan. How bizarre is that?! To think that this entire blog started as somewhere for me to share my vegan food finds and what I thought would just be a little fun project has actually become something that I put a lot of my time into, and … Continue reading 500 posts
Bat Appreciation Day
17 April marks International Bat Appreciation day! I always feel that bats get a bad rep, since it seems many people assume they are all vampires. International Bat Day was introduced by the Bat Conservation International (BCI) charity. This organisation was founded in 1982 and aims to conserve bats and their habitats through a combination … Continue reading Bat Appreciation Day
I am a published author!
Not animal welfare or vegan focused, but it is another one of my biggest passions. I have always loved writing and in 2020 I really started to take my writing a bit more seriously and to make time for a hobby of mine that inspires me. It provides me with an escape from the everyday … Continue reading I am a published author!
What is the animal holocaust?
This is quite a testy sentence that I have seen being used by a number of vegan activists, both from individuals and organisations. Whilst there is a part of me that understands why they use this language, I personally do not agree with it. I have always loved languages, especially the written language. I loved … Continue reading What is the animal holocaust?

NaNaWriMo 2021
It is the 1st November which means one thing... It's National Novel Writing Month!!! I was first introduced to NaNoWriMo about 5 years ago and since then every November there has been an attempt for me to write 50,000 in the month. This works out to roughly 1700 words a day - which may not … Continue reading NaNaWriMo 2021
