Colorworld Series Readalong
Hey all, Dani here. I hope you are all having a nice Sunday. I've been pretty darn lazy so far today...a whole lot of video gaming and binge watching TV. But I just read a whole book (184 pages), so I guess that's progress. I'd like to read another book or two today, though, so… Continue reading Colorworld Series Readalong
Recommendations: For Fans of Broadway
Hey all, Dani here. I know there's a lot of people missing the ability to go to the theater. Technically yes, this statement applies to movies and to live theater, but for the purposes of today's recommendations post, let's just all assume that when I say theater I am talking about live shows.

Review: Dewey: The Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched the World by Vicki Myron with Bret Witter
Hey all, Dani here. Today's review is a special one for me, especially during National Library Week. This is a book that I bought back during my undergraduate program, and it was a book club pick at my library, and I held on to my copy. Fast forward more than a decade later and I… Continue reading Review: Dewey: The Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched the World by Vicki Myron with Bret Witter

Weekend Writer: Steering the Craft by Ursula K. Le Guin — Part One
Hey all, Dani here. Happy Easter everyone! We're having a pretty chill day here in our nerd home. I got a small ham, and I'm going to make up some mashed potatoes, mixed veggies, and dinner rolls, which should be pretty good, and then I think we're going to play some board games for a… Continue reading Weekend Writer: Steering the Craft by Ursula K. Le Guin — Part One

Hey all, Dani here. Welcome back to another very early post for me. Same as with last month, this post is going live while I'm deep asleep, but I want to make sure that all of the participants in Calendar Girls can link to my post as soon as possible, so why not have this… Continue reading Calendar Girls: April 2020
Weekend Writer: March Progress
Hey all, Dani here. As we all know, the world really went bonkers in March, so as is probably expected, I did not get like any writing accomplished. Or, at least, I didn't get any writing done on my novel. Because I was sitting there thinking about it a couple days ago, and just because… Continue reading Weekend Writer: March Progress

Hey all, Dani here. Whoops...I guess I should have mentioned earlier that I would have a bonus post up today. Surprise extra content!
