WW: Wearin’ o’ the Green
This week’s Wordless Wednesday prompt is “emerald”–I assume that’s as in “Emerald Isle,” as in Ireland, as in St. Patrick’s Day. I just read it as “green.” An InLinkz Link-up Subscribe to Blog via Email Enter your email address to subscribe to this blog and receive notifications of new posts by email.

WW: Run, Jump, Flip–ZIP!
The prompt for the Wordless Wednesday Link-Up this week is “Run. Jump. Flipped.” This involved some of everything.

WCWW: Smoky Mountain Spring
Today is a “Wild Card” Wordless Wednesday with no specific prompt, but the suggested theme is “spring forward” (since we set the clocks ahead this weekend!). I’m springing backward instead, to May 2007.

“I’ll stir-fry you in my wok…”

WW: Black & White & A Little (TARDIS) Blue
Paul and I spent Valentine’s weekend sharing the love of Doctor Who with fellow fans and friends (and a few stars) of the show at the annual Gallifrey One convention here in Los Angeles. Saturday was our “cosplay day.” Disclosure: I made edits to comply with this week’s Wordless Wednesday theme, “Black and White,” but since this 50-year-old TV show was in black-and-white when it started, I think they’re appropriate.

The Armchair BEA 2014 Recruitment Post
One of my proudest achievements as a book blogger is being part of the founding team of Armchair BEA, the virtual companion event to Book Expo America and the BEA Bloggers Conference, and seeing how it’s grown and developed from its grassroots beginnings in a Twitter conversation in the weeks before BEA 2010. But the bittersweet flip side to success is the amount of work required to sustain it. In order to sustain Armchair BEA […]
WW: Wild(wood) Life
It’s a “Wild Card” week for my Wordless Wednesday group, so it seems like the perfect time to get out in the wild and show you some of the scenery at our favorite place to hike, Wildwood Park.

Flashback Friday: Traveling Photos
After buying a house last summer, Tall Paul and I agreed that we’d keep our Christmas 2013 gifts to each other pretty low-key (although we did purchase a very nice new set of cookware as a “to us, from us” present). I asked him for just one thing: to select a couple of his own photos that he especially liked, and frame them for me to hang in my office. He chose these two from […]
