Cindy’s Love Of Books Got Tagged

Earlier this month I got an email from Diana at http://ladyd-books.blogspot.com/ saying that I got tagged.

I have to admit Diana is new to me and I have never seen her blog before this email. I believe she has only been blogging since earlier this year. If you haven’t already had the chance to look at her blog then I really suggest you should.

So the purpose of this tag means that I have to play tag by answering a few little interview questions and then I have to blog tag someone else! So, here are my answers and I guess I’m it!

But I am going to change this up a little instead of naming a blogger anyone who wants to take part your it and link back to me so that I know you are playing.

1. Which words do you use too much in your writing?

-“I love discovering…” I have noticed I have been using that alot lately.

2. Which words do you consider overused in stuff you read?

-Words such as In my opinion, I’d like, And really plus a few more that I can’t seem to recall right now.

3. What are your other favorite blogs?

There are so many great blogs out there and its hard to pin point favorites so just take a look at my blog roll.

4. Name a favorite word:

“Inspire”

5. And a word you’re not so keen on:

My answer is the same as Diana’s HERE in blogging. When you are reading a post on a blog and it tells you to CLICK HERE, HERE, CHECK HERE etc. I know I am bad for that but lately I have been trying to change that.

6. What would you like to improve about your writing and/or blog?

I would love to write better reviews and write more content on my blog.

7. What’s your writing ambition?

I would love my writting to be more smoothly and not have to find the words that fit what I am trying to say. Yet be simple and enjoyable.

Slinky S

Kathy from Bermudaonion took part in this meme from Trish at Hey Lady! Whatcha Readin’?. You are assigned a random letter from the alphabet and you have to come up with 10 things you love/like that begin with that letter. Kathy assigned me the letter S and I am so thankfully its an easy letter.

Here are my favorite things that begin with “S”

1. Strawberry Cheesecake. I love strawberry cheesecake. This is my favorite dessert of all time.

2. Shopping. I admit it I am a shopaholic hands down.

3. Snuggling. I love to snuggle on the couch with my son, Michael and read books or watch movies with him.

4. Stacks of books every where. I love to read so having books around me is a great feeling.

5. Satelite tv. We have had satelite tv for many years now and we love it. I am able to watch the news or shows from the East Coast.

6. Spring. When the weather is warmer and the flowers start to bloom. What’s not to love about spring?

7. Smells. I love the smells of lilac trees and baked goods.

8. Salmon Beach. That is the name of the little town I grew up in. Right behind our house was the beach.

9. Sales. I love checking out sales especially for books for Michael and I.

10. Snow flakes. Kathy didn’t think I would mention this but I love the those big fluffy kind of snowflakes.

If you would love take part leave me a comment and I will randomly pick a letter for you.

2. Reading. I am always reading. Its a nice way to relax at the end of the day.

4. Friends. Being with friends and hanging out, talking about whatever.

5. My son, Michael. He is a constant source of entertainment. You never know what to expect from him.
