New Blogging Schedule


In an effort to post more consistently, I've decided to join in on a few memes hosted by various book bloggers in the blogosphere.  This will force me to post something every day, aside from Saturdays and Sundays, and I'm thinking that's a good thing.  I should also get back into the habit of reviewing the books I've read (I have a whole smattering of drafts just waiting to be finished), and posting those during the week as well.  Here's the breakdown of posting memes and their respective hosts:

Mondays
  • Musing Mondays hosted by MizB @ Should Be Reading
    • This is a weekly meme where MizB will post a question on a book/reading- related topic and you answer with your personal thoughts.
Tuesdays
  • Teaser Tuesdays hosted by MizB @ Should Be Reading
    • I used to participate in this meme regularly, but haven't for awhile.  I'm going to start posting on it again.  This meme is all about enticement.  You grab whatever book you're currently reading or will be starting, flip to a random page, and blog no more than 2 sentences to entice the readers without giving away too much detail
  • Top Ten Tuesdays hosted by The Broke and the Bookish
    • This is a weekly meme in list form where you show your love for something book-related in a top ten list.
Wednesdays
  • "Waiting On" Wednesday hosted by Jill @ Breaking the Spine
    • This is a weekly meme where you spotlight an upcoming release that you're looking forward to.
Thursdays
  • Booking Through Thursday hosted by Deb @ Booking Through Thursday
    • Essentially, every Thursday a question/prompt is posted, you copy and paste it to your blog and answer the prompt.  Pretty simple.
Fridays
  • Flashback Friday hosted by Lisa @ Bookshelf Fantasies
    • This meme gives bloggers a chance to highlight some of their favorite books from the past.  It must have been published at least five years ago and you write about why this book is so awesome and special for you.
This should be a good way to keep on track and, maybe, inspire fellow bloggers to participate in these various memes!  Happy blogging and reading!

      I saw your "Waiting On" Wednesday and Top Ten is pretty awesome. I like that they post the topics ahead of time. Some of these other ones look great! Yay for blogging :)

2016 A-Z Blogging Challenge Theme Reveal

Image
Oooo...the day is getting closer; creeping stealthily, it will smack you in the face in no time! While we impatiently await the start of the challenge, it's time to reveal our themes.  Yay!  I'm going for something drastically different this year.  Something much more challenging than I've ever done in my previous four years participating in this particular challenge.  Normally my posts are pretty straight-forward, contained, not overly ambitious.  This year is going to be another beast all together. My mission, should I choose to accept it, will be to write one continuous story for the entire challenge.  I know my characters, setting, and where I want it to go...kind of.  All I need to figure out is how to get from point A to point Z.  The first word of each post will start with the letter for the day; some of these will definitely be more difficult than others, but I'm determined. I look forward to writing this, receiving feedback, and having a rip-roaring goo

L is for...Lighthouses

 It's a schizophrenic Saturday here in Oregon (what's new) and we're strolling in to the halfway point of the A-Z Blogging Challenge.  Today's letter brings us to a feature that many states along the coast possess and something that I've always had a fascination with... Lighthouses There are eleven total lighthouses along the Oregon Coast.  Nine were built for maritime purposes, five are still in operation, and two were privately built.  Of the eleven, nine of them are on the National Register of Historic Places.  There are five lighthouses that offer tours to visitors and each has a unique history.  Some even have sordid pasts and rumored ghosts that roam their buildings.  As a heads up, I apologize for the length of this post. From the north heading south along Highway 101, the lighthouses are as follows: Tillamook Rock Lighthouse is the furthest north and located near Seaside.  It is deactivated and the only lighthouse built offshore on a

C is for...Crater Lake

Nearly halfway through the first week of the A-Z Challenge and we are to the letter C.  I hope everyone is plugging along nicely and not feeling pressured yet!  Today's letter is representative of... Crater Lake I love Crater Lake .  It's beautiful, fascinating, and awesome.  Located in Southern Oregon, Crater Lake is a body of water that has formed inside the remains of a once active volcano in the Cascade Range.  The caldera formed by the massive eruption of Mount Mazama 7700 years ago is now filled with crystal clear blue water and two islands; the main one being Wizard Island.  Fed only by rainfall and melting snow, the water is completely replaced every 250 years and one of the purest bodies of water in America in terms of absent pollutants.  The park is open year-round and visited by nearly half a million people annually, but many roads become impassible during the winter months.
