Bookworm Ruckus At It Again

~ Daybook #11 ~ The picture above doesn't do it justice (not wide enough) but it is an image of the graphic novels section at one of my local public libraries. You know you have an incurable book fetish when you find yourself unexpectedly rummaging the shelves at the dollar store looking for unlikely gems. #AlwaysBeReading folks.

Daybook 5 | The Sound of Fiction

So sometime last week I had been lamenting the fact that while working at the day job I had burned myself out on listening to music and podcasts on my iPod and needed a third option, at the very least. That’s when the little light bulb went off in my head and alerted me that … Continue reading Daybook 5 | The Sound of Fiction →
