Writing, reading, and living a creative, awesome life.
Ok, seriously this was a SAD WEEK. Reading-wise I mean! BUT I CAN EXPLAIN! First, let’s talk about the two books I DID read this week: Of course I HAD to read Insurgent. I LOVED Divergent. I ate this up! Can’t wait for the next book. This is a great series, and you look very impressive when…
Woo-hoo! How is everyone doin? (I’m a little excited about this upcoming writing conference, can you tell?) 18 books this week! Most of the picture books I read in a bookstore, waiting for a prescription. I had horrible headaches for about a week, and finally went to the doctor. She said it sounded like I…
Do you love recommending books? Do you love fun ways to do it? Do you love great art, but feel like you can’t draw? (or do you not have thumbs so it makes it difficult?) Then today’s your lucky day! Because you can learn, right here, RIGHT NOW, How to send some art in the…
Hello everyone! Happy Tuesday! This was a good reading week. I was house/cat sitting for a friend, and brought over a ton of books from the library. I love how I’m in week 6 and I still haven’t figured out how I want to do this. I agree that all the reviews from GoodReads is…
Hello everyone! We read 20 books this week and ran ONE Tough Mudder! I’m exhausted, and, surprised that I’m not truly sick! We ran and walked in temps that reached the low 40’s, and were in and out of water. Singe Singe’ll write something about it later when we get pictures developed. He also took…
Happy Birthday Clifford! I, for one, LOVE the BIG RED DOG! Ok, maybe it’s because he has an owner with two first names. Or maybe because he’s so cute. No, I think it’s because he goes on the best adventures. I sent Clifford a birthday card: You can too! Click here! And yes, I was…
Whew! This post is coming late! I had all intentions of getting up early in the morning and doing it, but, let’s be honest. I have never been that kind of person. Though I always think I will be. I’ve tried to be that way for so many years… I can remember doing it with…
Quick Caldecott and Newbery note: Big Shout Out to Priscilla Mizell for dramatically texting me the results! I was over my data limit for the month but NEEDED to know. The programs I do with children are 2.5 hours, but there is a break an hour and a half in. I ran over to my…
This was a good week for reading. 27 books! Woo-hoo! Also, Singe Singe found a great app called Pic Stitch, and has now found a way to put himself in the post more. He INSISTED on getting his picture taken with some of his favorite books this week. Here’s the deal with this week: All…
Whew! So I knew after last week’s 64, I was going to have to slow down, and slow down I did! This past week, we only read 11 books. And I was back to work. Anyone see a connection there? But seriously, I do love my job, so it’s ok. Only one picture book this…
