Greetings anyone tuning in today. This is going to be short, as I have been too busy to put much effort into this post, but simply couldn’t bring myself to miss an IWSG post.

1. I’m gearing up for the second leg of my book tour extravaganza. This mini tour will feature a quiz I put together about Love Triangles according to my book, It’s Like the Full Moon. Anyone interested is welcome to try it early, but please share it if you do.


2. This may be the last month of my blog hop adventure depending on the response I get when I reach out to the handful of participants I have so far. I’ve really enjoyed this and hope some of them will continue the journey with me into the new year. Please check out the BooktagsBlogHop, if you’re interested.

3. I’m hoping this holiday season will bring on some much-needed rest, but it’s not likely. In any case, I am looking forward to spending time with family and celebrating Christmas, just because I can.

Got any big plans for the holiday, whichever it may be?
Gonna give my blog hop a try?

It’s Christmas Eve! – 2014

Wikipedia

Christmas is a special time of year for so many people. Christians celebrate the birth of Christ. Others, who observe this occasion, spend time with loved ones and spread cheer. I think, also, that many people try extra hard to be a better versions of themselves than they usually are, during this time.

Christmas isn’t just for Christians and I think it’s great. Why wouldn’t I be grateful for any occasion that brings out the best in people? So, to anyone reading this today or some time down the road, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you.

This is an updated and reposted post.

A Day in My Life: Dec. ’13: Holidays and Birthdays

dayNlife

You may or may not find this surprising, but as a writer I’ve never been much of a journaler (I like making up words). I’ve always kept writing, sketching, and poetry notebooks, but I’ve never really liked writing about myself. This monthly post is my attempt at rectifying that and is an opportunity for me to get a little personal, as I share a single event from my life.

December 2013 – Holiday and Birthday Parties

June is a month that is so swamped with birthdays and other celebrations that I always feel a little overwhelmed, but December is a little different. There are several birthdays to be celebrated and then, of course there is Christmas, but it seems to be a little more laid back. So for this month of December, I say happy birthday to many, including my mother and nephew, and Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all.
