About Me

Greetings, this is a work in progress. 

 Basically I have no idea what to put here, so hello, welcome, please tell me what I'm supposed to be doing.

    Yes! It is so hard to find good quality reading material, especially when those of us blessed with speed reading tend to blaze through everything we can get our hands on.

    Same on the strange range of musical taste. I’m not even sure what mine is called.

    Oh and yes! Grammar and spelling are both very important! Right up with the importance levels of Lord of the Rings and Narnia.

      It is! And an absolute yes to the speed reading. Sometimes I wish I didn't finish awesome books quite so quickly. However, we are blessed with the extra time - to be used in reading more books, obviously.

      I'm pretty sure mine is known as officially weird, but I prefer to call it eclectic. :D

      Are we related, or something? Because that's totally something I would say. Grammar and spelling are the building blocks that hold our culture up, even if everyone else seems to completely disregard them. Oh well, us LOTR/Narnia/grammar people will take over the world eventually. No one will be able to resist our impeccable taste. :)

      Aw, thanks! I like it too (I guess I did pick it) because it's so understated yet really elegant. Yes, it is always fun to learn more about someone. That's why questions were invented, right? XD Full confession: I actually kind of stalk people sometimes.
      Glad you like it!

    If you're a fan of correct spelling/grammar, then maybe you like correct punctuation too? If so, please join me in mOURNING THE ABUSE OF THE APOSTROPHE. And the general public doesn't even care... *weeps salty tears*

    And I agree, it's annoying when people (unlike characters) don't stick to your mental script ;P

    Can't wait to see some recommendations of good books from this blog, Brianna! (and I appreciate you following mine ;)

      I do like correct punctuation! Oh my word, yes!! That poor little thing is so abused and forgotten! (You may want to read the next section with care :D ) Those people who write "Fruit's" or "Your doing great" or things like that - they probably don't know that they're slowly killing us. *joins you in weeping*

      Yes, life would be better if everyone had a snappy comeback ready for all occasions. Except maybe funerals. :P

      I hope I'll be able to help!

      I know, there are all these introverted bloggers (or so they claim :D ) but extroverts are few and far between. Hello, fellow ENFJ! *waves excitedly*
      I'm glad you found me too! We'll have to stick together now. :D
      I'm really curious about your awesome name now . . . where'd it come from??

      I don't know why the results have been so consistent. It is rather crazy. :D Oh, we're almost the same then! Nice to meet another extrovert around here. :) I overuse the Em Dash, honestly. It's so very helpful for everything - I've had to limit my usage in class papers. :D

      Nice to meet you, too! It sounds like we have a lot in common. :D Yes, chocolate is the elixir of life, in my opinion.

      Thanks so much!

Book Review - The Hobbit

Image
I'm starting out with a book that I know well (because, yikes, it's my first review!  *insert panic here*)  I've loved Tolkien's works ever since my mom read the Hobbit out loud to us when we were about nine or ten.  I then had the chance to watch a theatre production of the Hobbit, which was the best way ever to study the characters!  (Sidenote: I will not be mentioning the movies and their flaws.  It'd take too long.)  The best facet of Tolkien's work, in my opinion, is his talent for bringing characters and settings to vivid life.  The Hobbit is a classic example of the "untalented" character having a lot more to him than is first evident.  Bilbo Baggins is not a strong, perfect hero, but he is a realistic, relatable person (fine, hobbit.)  Gandalf is the wise shepherd who occasionally just can't stand the dwarves one moment longer.  And the dwarves?  They seem a little bit like a very large homeschooling family.  . ....

Ordinary People, Extraordinary Stories

Image
Characters - they're what drive our stories along and lift them to new heights.  Without characters. there can be no conflict; without conflict, there can be no story.  But, if you think about it, characters are people - ordinary, commonplace, normal people you might meet on the street.  Everyone has their own personality, so why are characters so often cut from the same molds?  Tolkien's elves have popped up in dozens, hundreds, of different incarnations, and his dwarves are nearly as popular.  Why can't our elves be bright blue, thirteen feet tall, deaf, and covered in pink mud?  Why can't our dwarves have four legs and suddenly have to go in search of the remedy for itchy noses and patchy ear hair?  (That was all off the top of my head, so . . .) We don't need to follow any expectations for our characters.  As a matter of fact, the most intriguing real fictional people don't meet any lists of criteria; they make the lists.  And...

The Tag That Must Not Be Named

The Nameless Tag by Brianna Stacyn Pardon the joke.  :D  On to the tag!  The lovely Lila Kims tagged me for whatever this thing is, so thanks to her!  She calls this tag The Mysteriously Nameless Book Tag - sounds ominous.  Here we go! What book has been on your shelf the longest? Umm . . . *goes to check*   I actually cleared out my bookshelf a year or two back because I wasn't reading the books there, but it's probably Anne of Green Gables or Little Women . What is your current read, your last read, and the book you’ll read next? Pride and Prejudice , Probing , I don't really know . . . maybe The Tethered World ?  It'll end up being whatever I have time for, really. What book did everyone like, but you hated? Les Miserables.   I couldn't get through it.  Granted, I was reading the full version, but I just couldn't stand it.  I'll pick it up again this summer.  Hopefully, I'll make it through this ...
