Books, Writing, & The Cozy Life
https://twitter.com/marykarrlit/status/1071582297437151232 Mary Karr, who I think I might be distantly related to (by marriage), wrote that tweet on December 8 and I can't stop thinking about it. And she's right. I'm slowly picking my way through Daily Rituals: How Artists Work, and it's amazing how many writers and thinkers swear by their walks. It shouldn't... Continue Reading →
I love it when what I'm reading happens to be in line with the things I'm thinking about. Isn't it funny how that happens? It's like when you learn a new word: all of a sudden you see and hear it everywhere. Was it always there and I'm just now noticing? What else am I... Continue Reading →
It's Tuesday! Thanks to That Artsy Reader Girl for hosting this weekly link-up. This week's topic is probably the easiest yet: books that I meant to read last year but didn't get to! 2018 was a slow reading year for me, so there were a ton of books that I would have loved to tackle....

I started writing morning pages just over two years ago. I loved it and looked forward to waking up at 4:30 nearly every single day to write in my journal; I relished being able to get the coffee pot ready each night and then crawl out of bed to the smell of hot coffee and... Continue Reading →
It's time for Top Ten Tuesday! Thanks to That Artsy Reader Girl for hosting this weekly link-up. This week's topic is New to Me Authors that I read in 2018. Last year feels like a lost year, so I'm glad that I keep my notebook of books that I've read, otherwise I'd have no chance... Continue Reading →
Today I'm linking up with the Modern Mrs. Darcy to share what I've been reading lately. This is one of my favorite link-ups and I love seeing what everyone else has been reading. If you want to stack your TBR up super high, go check out her comments! Many of you know that my reading... Continue Reading →
I lied to my librarian last week and feel like a horrible human being. Here's the story. I was on the state-wide waiting list for Michelle Obama's new book, Becoming, and the length of the list was incredible. I'd noticed that my library hadn't yet added the book to their catalog, so I sent an... Continue Reading →
I'm linking up with the awesome Bookish Beck to share my library usage for November! As you know, reading has been slow for me lately, but I returned to the library in November and have been enjoying the New Arrivals shelf! This is a great meme to join because it involves lists (who doesn't love... Continue Reading →
Today I'm linking up with Anne Bogel to share what I've been reading lately. I've recently had a dry spell in my reading but am back at it! The story of my life. But it feels good to curl up on the couch with a book in my hands again. And, of course, to feel... Continue Reading →
Returning to book blogging is hard work! There are so many tiny little tasks that need to be accomplished - updating a neglected Goodreads account, remembering the rhythm of memes, remembering how to even use wordpress, reconnecting with old friends with my tail between my legs, etc. It's a reminder of how much work I put...
