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?
Should you keep your cat indoors?
I have seen this debate going around online quite a lot in recent months. There are obviously a lot of different sides of this debate so I thought it would be interesting to address these arguments. Now I will preface this by saying that I am a very nervous pet parent - I think after … Continue reading Should you keep your cat indoors?
Is fashion promoting trophy hunting?
I love fashion. Whilst I could never afford many of the designer items out there, I love to see how creative fashion designers can get with their outfits and their runways.

Can vegans support zoos?
I want to have a discussion with you all, because it is something that I have been very interested in for some time. When I was at university I actually did a whole dissertation on whether zoos were good or bad for animal welfare. I went in thinking that there was no way that zoos … Continue reading Can vegans support zoos?

100 POSTS!
How strange to think that this is now my 100th post on Taylor Tries Her Best! To think that I started this blog purely to talk about my newest vegan discoveries and now look at where we are! What's even weirder to think about is that I have written 100 posts, of which at least … Continue reading 100 POSTS!
