Literary Junkies

Pink Heels Pink Truck
THE QUESTIONS:
Literarey Junkies is a fun meme asking questions about your reading.  You can read my answers below, or share yours at Pink Heels, Pink Truck.





MY ANSWERS:
1. What are you reading? Tell us about it!
Nothing for fun right now I'm afraid.  I've decided to homeschool my youngest so reading lots of curriculum reviews and other homeschooling stuff.  Also, Squidoo, a site I write through, just got acquired by Hubpages and is going away, so I'm reading up on Hubpages to see if I want to move my Squidoo articles  there, or somewhere else.  So swamped.  

2. Do you read one book at a time, or read multiple books at once?
I used to read just one fiction book at a time, along with a few non-fiction (I go more slowly through those--and some are things like devotionals which are meant to be read a little at a time.  But now it seems I pick up a book, put it down, and can't recall where I left it...so I start another.  

3. What is the first book that made you fall in love with reading?
The first chapter book I read cover to cover on my own was The Secret Garden.  My mom  had already read The Little Princess (by the same author) and I wanted to start this one because I loved that one so much, but she was busy.  So, on her suggestion, I read and it started me reading many more...but my mom had already ignited my love of reading books too me, from short, rich books like the Serendipity books, to her own Christian romance novels by Janet Oke that she read to me, in part, I think, so I would stop bugging her and be quiet while she read.

4. Do you prefer a physical copy of the book or an electronic version?
Physical.  I like to read when my kids are on the computer.

5. What are three books on your To Be Read list?
The second and third Hunger Games books, which are somewhere in my house, but I DO NOT KNOW WHERE.  Dang messy house.  Another is Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis.

New Shop With Customized Girl!

This is just a little announcement that I've opened up a new shop through Customized girl. It just has a few items for now, but there will be more soon

Plus you can take any product in my shop use the Customize This button to swop out that item for any other item customized girl offers  (for instance, if my design is on a shirt and you want it on another style shirt,or even a teddy bear, you can do that!).  You can also change colors or add text!

One of my favorite items are their flowy shirts (like the one shown at right).

They have a lot of other fun items...lots of cute shirts, stuffed animals, and bags.

I'm still deciding what to add next. Alas, some of my designs are stuck on a drobo and I can't get at them to add them now, but hopefully I'll have some more up soon.
