Optional Monthly Question: If you ever did stop writing, what would you replace it with?
I don’t see myself ever not engaging in some sort of writing activity throughout my life. If; however, I was prohibited by law, with the threat of death and generational fines; yet- somehow oddly not banned from drawing or dancing- I’d do one of those. I don’t think I’m particularly good at either, but I do enjoy them both immensely. Plus, I don’t see cooking ever becoming illegal, though the world is getting crazier every day, so I could also express creativity with the meals I make.
May was a busy crazy month for me. Some good, some not so good, but fortunately nothing too bad. I was so busy, I actually forgot to post to this blog and my Patreon community a few times. I won’t go back and do make-up content for this blog, but I have a plan to deliver the make-up content to my Patrons. Plus, I’ve been working on a lot of new and exclusive content.
While I didn’t read a lot, I did keep up with my Goodreads challenge, which I’ll post about next week, along with my book reviews. I did write a lot, which I wish I hadn’t forgotten to share, but like I said, I have a plan to make up that content. I recorded and posted two new videos on my YouTube channel: Counting My Blessings and Have U Seen This, featured below.?
Oh, oh, and I’m so excited to release season two of my Read Local Show! I’ve completed three episodes and hope to get at least one more. Season 2 Episode 1 airs this Friday, 6/9/23 with author Drema Deoraich. I’m still trying to line up talent for the Read All Over Show, so if you know anyone interested, please send them my way.
Birthday month, I mean June, has started out in full force, so I don’t have too much to say until the dust settles. Happy Birthday to all my family, friends, and anyone else who has a birthday in June.

What would you do if you couldn’t write?
How has your year in reading been going?
It may take some time, but I promise, I will eventually stop by your blog.
My response time has gotten slower but I’m still making my rounds.

Today the IWSG Book Club launches our May discussion about what we are reading. It doesn’t have to be a book club selection just something you are excited about. Let’s all share what we are reading, and perhaps, we’ll find something to add to our own TBR lists. Click this link to go straight to the discussion. I’m currently reading Brides of Maracoor. I plan to start others but want to finish this first.

In April 2023, I completed 1 and ½ titles. My goal was 2-3. I had to DNF one title and decided to hold off on a picture book for a while. I am still on track with my Goodreads Challenge.
Below you’ll find my star ratings and review tags for each title I completed in the indicated month. You can also click the images to see the thorough reviews. There may even be a video for you to watch below, but I make no promises.
So tell me, what are you currently reading?
Did you read anything interesting in April?
Are you going to try the May theme challenge?
