The New Year's Book Tag

  Thanks for this fun tag, Katja ! Here we go! 1. How many books are you planning to read in 2021? 70! When I say that, I don't mean full-length print novels for all of them. I set my Goodreads reading goal at 70, and that includes print novels, ebooks, audiobooks, novellas, and short stories. 2. Name 5 books that you didn’t get to this year but want to make a priority in 2021. O to Be Like Thee by Kassie Angle Smoke Screen by Terri Blackstock Vow of Justice by Lynette Eason The Eagle of the Ninth by Rosemary Sutcliff Phantom Thief by P.D. Atkerson 3. What genre do you want to read more of? Suspense, particularly ones with law enforcement as main characters. 🤩💙 4. Name 3 non-book-related goals for 2021. Keeping up with my blog. Journalling at least a few days a week. Staying hydrated better than I have been.  5. What’s a book you’ve had forever that you still need to read? Hmmm . . . there are several, and I listed a few of my favorites in question #2. But . . . I'm goi...

2021: My Word of the Year

  Welcome to 2021!! I could go into the long, well-researched ramble I had started about New Year's resolutions (the statistics on those are interesting!). Or I could list out some of my goals for 2021. But, I'm not going to do either of those. Instead, I'm here for a short post: my word of the year. I don't know how exactly y'all took this word - but I don't mean trust other people. I don't mean trust myself. I sure don't mean trust everything I hear. I mean trust God .  I mean that I want to learn how to trust God with everything in me. To not worry when everyone else is worrying. To not turn away when everyone else is turning away. To not stay silent when everyone else is staying silent. To not back down when everyone else is backing down. To not be afraid when everyone else is afraid. And so, this year, I hope you'll join me. Joining me in trusting God. With everything. 💙 Love, Do you have a 2021 Word of the Year?

The Writerly Sibling Tag

Welcome back for another tag!! Tags are so fun, aren't they? :D Rule One: Thank the blogger who tagged you & provide a link to their post. So, uh, Katja stole this post from someone who stole this post from someone who stole this post. So I'm just keeping the tradition going! :D But you can read Katja's post here. Thanks, girl! Rule Two: Answer the inquires, including any ones added by means of rule six. Rule Three: Always use your own characters. No exception, unless you don’t actually have sibling characters (in which case you need to go write up some) or you don’t write (in which case you need to start ASAP). Rule Four: Tag three other bloggers. Rule Five: If you happen to have any siblings who blog, they are automatically tagged & cannot count towards your three. Rule Six: Add one question or prompt to the list of questions the person before you answered relating to siblings &/or characters. Answer the question, and provide a list of all the questions of ...
