Hey all, Sam here. I definitely meant to have this post up on Tuesday, but we had a huge storm come through and we lost power for a good portion of the day. Then Wednesday we were doing the final bits of prep work for a downtown market we vend David's 3d prints at, and… Continue reading May Wrap-Up
Hey all, Sam here. Another month has ended, which means it is time for me to talk about how my April went. I did do a decent amount of TV/movie watching, as per usual, but I'm not tracking my watches like I used to. I can say that David and I did a re-watch of… Continue reading April Wrap-Up
Hey all, Sam here. I started this blog back in January 2016, which means that this year is my 10th year of doing this, which feels incredibly wild to me. Without a doubt I can say that 2019 and 2020 were the best years of the blog, and the most prolific. I miss being able… Continue reading My Top Ten Posts (So Far)
Hey all, Sam here. Well.... we are well over a week into February and I'm just now getting this post up. I had it mostly written and it should have been up around February 2nd or 3rd, but I definitely dropped the ball, and the only excuse I have is that the US is a… Continue reading January Wrap-Up
Hey all, Sam here. Happy New Year! Well, at least I hope it is a happy new year. I definitely had to prep this post up in advance because this is the busiest time of the year for my job and I didn't know if I would have the time to get anything written if… Continue reading Goals for 2025
Hey all, Sam here. I try to do this post twice a year, each time covering a six-month chunk of time, but a lot of books come out in that span of time and while I anticipate a whole bunch of books each year, the reality is that I don't come close to reading all… Continue reading Most Anticipated Releases (Jan-June 2025)
Hey all, Sam here. It's the 25th of December, so why not have a post today? Merry Christmas to those who celebrate today, and a Happy Holidays in general because there are so many different holidays at this time of year. I've seen a lot of posts across social media talking about the 25 books… Continue reading 25 in 2025
Hey all, Sam here. Several years ago, I had a book blog friend who hosted a reading challenge at the end of the year called Diverse December...and while I read diversely year-round, it is nice to also have months where I focus on and highlight those diverse reads and diverse authors just a little more… Continue reading Diverse December Plans
Hey all, Sam here. It has been quite the eventful month, even if it has been not so very productive when it comes to consistent writing, but I should have expected as much because November is usually a difficult month to keep creatively progressing. I know that from 16 years of participating in NaNoWriMo. But… Continue reading PaWriCo Week 3 Check-In
Hey all, Sam here. I guess I'm going to start today's post by referring back to the two previous posts about PaWriCo: first the announcement of my project goals and deadline, and second my Week 1 Check-In. It has been a week since that last check-in, so if I'm serious about trying to work towards… Continue reading PaWriCo Week 2 Check-In
