Did you know tomorrow is my blog-0-versary? December 31, 2006 I took the plunge, telling God no matter what, I’d always write for Him. It started with this blog, and it remains my baby. I enjoy looking back and this year was busy. I thought I’d take today to reflect. This site I changed servers and switched the site up, creating a premium one through WordPress. This gave me the ability to add pages and really get my work out there. It was a great move. One post alone had 15,000+ hits.  I’m so grateful for the transition and look  [ Read More ]

It’s a first! I love to share my favorite reads of the year, and this year I have something new to add. Because of all the free at the time Kindle reads, I’ve read my share of Kindle books. They weren’t for review but simply for my reading pleasure. Because these were free Kindle reads, they won’t all be published in 2011. They also might not still be free, but because I love them so much, I absolutely recommend them. I share my reading shelves here on my site, so make sure you check often. I’m always reading and make  [ Read More ]

So yesterday and today my posts will be about my favorite reviewed books. New this year I’ll post my favorite Free Kindle read from 2011. Stay tuned! Today I tackle my favorite fiction reviewed read. For me, it’s a slam dunk. This was such a favorite book for me that I contacted the author, something I rarely do. It was well-written, topical, engaging  [ Read More ]

Each year I like to blog about my favorite fiction and non fiction reads. Today is my favorite non fiction announcement and tomorrow I will do fiction. New this year will be my favorite Free Kindle read of 2011. Because most of my reads this year were books to review, that is what they will be based on today and tomorrow. Remember, my shelves are always up for view. Most of my reviewed books this year were non fiction, so this wasn’t an easy choice.  I mean Made to Crave was a runaway bestseller and the tool I give credit  [ Read More ]
