Welcome to Litsy!

So it looks like the #readyourkindle spin this month is telling me to read some NetGalley books. 😂thanks for organizing @CBee

Stayed up way too late to finish this book nook. So cute though. 🥰

Just a reminder for myself and anyone else who needs to hear it. 📝

If you have a story
to tell, what are you waiting
for? Dare to create.

An old, not very findable book, but it taught me so much about reading and writing.

“Having read a book means nothing. Reading a book may be the most tremendous experience of your life; having read it is an item in your memory... We don't apply the same principle elsewhere: We don't believe in having heard Mendelssohn's violin concerto...I say, don't read the classics -- try to discover your own classics; every life has its own.”

I journal. I don‘t journal before bed every night if I don‘t have anything to write about but recently, I reapplied for the St. Martin‘s Press Early Readers Program after being in their program for years and they rejected me. I wrote about it in my journal. It ended up being a 3 page journal entry. I realized what bothered me the most was that they never used to care about how many followers you have and now, they do.

I read a wide range of genres, but I‘d have to pick narrative nonfiction. I do so love a well-written nonfiction account that educates me about a person, event or topic while entertaining me at the same time.

#JuneSpecials Day 16: Abdul is a storyteller – except he hesitates to call himself as one. He finds it difficult to pin down the words that would express the images in his mind. The image above even suggests that Abdul may be suffering from dyslexia or undiagnosed #LearningDisability #LrngDisability. Eventually, Abdul discovered that the mistakes, misspelled words are part of what it means to be a storyteller. My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-owi

I have some fun choices for #ReadYourKindle this month! Thanks for hosting, @CBee !
