Hey all, Sam here. Welcome back to another installment of the Weekend Writer series here on the blog. I had meant to really get things together for the new iteration of this series last month, but all I managed was the usual prompt generation and then prompt share. I hope to not drop the ball… Continue reading Weekend Writer: Stop Worrying; Start Writing: How to Overcome Fear, Self-Doubt, and Procrastination by Sarah Painter

NetGalley Review: Dungeons and Drama by Kristy Boyce
Hey all, Sam here. I had a 5 day blog streak and then I broke it...because my brother-in-law dropped by for a visit. He had been discussing the possibility with David but everything was still just ideas and possibilities, but the other day he texted and basically said "see you tonight," so we had all… Continue reading NetGalley Review: Dungeons and Drama by Kristy Boyce
NetGalley Review: A Fragile Enchantment by Allison Saft
Hey all, Sam here. This has been the longest week, or it has felt like the longest week. I will be so glad to get finished with my work shift today and head into my "weekend," which actually is Sun-Tues.

January Wrap Up
Hey all, Sam here. Wow, January was a pretty awesome month for reading, at least for me anyway. I am happy to say that I was having a great time reading, and I found myself finishing up quite a few fantastic reads. The downside was that I wasn't then spending time after finishing each book… Continue reading January Wrap Up
NetGalley Review: Mislaid in Parts Half-Known by Seanan McGuire
Hey all, Sam here. After all of the snow that was dumped on us a couple weeks ago and the absolute frigid temperatures the following few days, our schedules and life got a little topsy-turvy.

February 2024 TBR
Hey all, Sam here. It's been a little while since I've done a TBR. I started doing a broad seasonal style TBR because my reading desire and mood was so flighty for a while last year...but if my January reading is any indication, I might be back to my normal reading drive, which means I… Continue reading February 2024 TBR
2023 Book Haul Sept-Dec
Hey all, Sam here. So yeah, this post is about three weeks later than I had wanted to release it, but I mentioned before that the beginning of the month threw us a couple curve balls. We have actually been without hot water at our house for two weeks now, which has been frustrating, but… Continue reading 2023 Book Haul Sept-Dec
Top Twenty Reads of 2023
Hey all, Sam here. It feels like I'm a little behind schedule with this post, but I promise that I'm not. Usually in the last week or two of a year, I see so many posts and videos and reels where bookternet folks are posting their top ten reads of the year...and sure, there's nothing… Continue reading Top Twenty Reads of 2023
Weekend Writer: January Prompts
Hey all, Sam here. Weekend Writer is back! As I mentioned in a previous post, I am making some changes to how this blog series works, mostly because I was spending so much time prepping and writing these weekly posts and it left me so drained. I absolutely loved writing all the writing posts and… Continue reading Weekend Writer: January Prompts
Goals for 2024
Hey all, Sam here. Usually when it comes time for a new year, a lot of people start making New Year's Resolutions...and some even manage to stick to them. Overall though, I tend to see so many of those resolutions get dropped early on in the year...which is why I prefer to set goals for… Continue reading Goals for 2024
