Welcome to NYAD!


Welcome to Not Your Average Damsels, NYAD for short. Considering that I fail at introductions more often than I succeed, I shall get straight down to business.

Not Your Average Damsels is a blog run by ladies aimed toward women and fellow feminists. NYAD is intended as a safe space where women can share their ideas and interests with likeminded individuals. The idea behind the name was that no woman should be considered an average damsel, regardless of what their personality is like. The acronym NYAD is a reference to the nymphs of the classical era. We’re aiming to blog about a wide variety of things, not limited to pop-culture, life topics, writing, history and sport. Our blog will update on a semi-regular basis, mostly on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Some of our ideas for what we’d like to post in the future are:
  • Historical BAMF Lady of the Month: As the title implies, once a month we’ll research and post a small biography of a historical lady and what she’s accomplished. We’ve already collected a few but we’re always open to any suggestions.
  • Reviews of books, tv shows and movies. 
  • As a majority of our bloggers are also creative writers, we’ll also be posting about the writing processes we go through, cover a bit of the research we conduct and discuss our forays into the world of publishing.
We’d also like to have guest posts from other ladies about topics they’re interested in, so expect a few of those once we pin some down.
