Blog Schedule

I post on Monday with an occasional random blog thrown in for good measure. I do my best to answer all comments via email and visit around on the days I post.

Pay it Forward Blogfest!

It's here it's happening today! Come on in, take your shoes off and have a look around.

Matt over at The Quintessentially Questionable Query Experiment offered up this idea for a bloghpop.
"The idea is to introduce everyone to everyone else. We want this to be an easy post that allows you to meet and follow as many other bloggers as you can. In your post, we would like you to please list, describe, and link to three blogs that you enjoy reading, but that you suspect may fly under the radar of a lot of other bloggers. Or they can be famous blogs, as long as they're awesome.

But don't stop there! Certainly visit and follow all the blogs that are featured in people's posts the day of the blogfest, but those don't have to be the only blogs you visit. You can visit everyone who enters in on the fun, and signs up on the linky list. In the interest of time you don't even have to leave comment. You can just follow, and come back another time. After all, we all know we don't have time to visit every blog we enjoy every single day."


That's it! So here are three blogs I enjoy reading.

Anne Spollen is an author with two beautifully written books under her belt, The Shape of Water and Light Beneath Ferns. Her accounts of life with her teenage kids is both humorous and up-lifting. 

Mary Witzl at ResidentAlien is a writer and teacher who has raised a family, taught, and lived in such diverse places as Japan, Turkey and Scotland. Her stories of dealing with students, her kids, and life are always entertaining and eye-opening.

Tabitha Bird at Through My Eyes lives in Australia and writes beautiful blogs. In her words, "THROUGH MY EYES seeks to inspire the soul. The dragonfly is a symbol of transformation. And reading and writing are, in my opinion, processes of transformation. From my writer's heart to yours, may you...WRITE. HOPE. FLY." 

Go, visit, enjoy.
