A Blast from the Past
March 2022: Why it Matters
More than a year ago, when the war in Ukraine was new, people were sharing a post about why Ukraine mattered. It was all about primary resources, and not about people. I thought, and still think, human beings were more important.
What I’ve Read
Scream for Ice Cream and Murder by Lady Jabberwokky (Write with Heart) This story is a delicious serving of murder and mystery.
Chosen for a Reason by Dawn Benedict (Rhymes, Dreams, Fantasy and Thoughts) A look at the often wonderful, sometimes problematic relationships between mother and child.
Tite Frette by Nancy Richy (The Elephant’s Trunk) In this short story, revenge does not go as planned.
That Day by Emma Grigg (E J Grigg, Author) A poem about love, loss, and the conflicting emotions in grief.
Pomeranian Socialisation Tips (Pomeranian Puppies) I don’t have a Pomeranian, and don’t expect to ever have one, so I didn’t actually read the post. It has pictures of cute puppies. If you’re ever having a bad day and just want to see cute puppies to cheer yourself up, I recommend this site. It’s probably also got useful information if you’re planning on getting a Pomeranian.
What’s On My Mind by Christina (Webblogs/OCD and Me) Invisible health conditions, whether physical or mental, are, well, invisible. People who haven’t experienced one don’t always understand. Christina brings awareness to OCD, anxiety, panic attacks, by simply sharing her life and thoughts.
Remembering Polly by Amy Boucher (Nearly Knowledgeable) A look at the sad history of a little girl who was murdered by people she should have been able to trust, and the ghost story and folklore that has grown up around her.
If I read it and I like it, or find it interesting, it goes in here. I try to only include one item from any single author in a week (even if I loved a number of things they published), because otherwise the list would get over-long.
I don’t do paid reviews, but I do accept recommendations, and even review copies of books, so if you’d particularly like me to review something, tell me about it.
