Reading Log: Heir of Fire

January 15, 2019September 23, 2019 / Kim @ Traveling in Books / 18 Comments

“Read, read, read. Read everything -- trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You'll absorb it. Then write. If it's good, you'll find out. If it's not, throw it out of the window.”- William Faulkner My ambivalence … Continue reading Reading Log: Heir of Fire

I've barely written anything for my blog over the past couple of weeks (thanks, work), so while I have a few moments, I figured I would fill out a tag that no one tagged me for. There are a lot of things that are aggravating me right now, so I'm going to take this time … Continue reading Unpopular Opinions Tag

Sunday Sum-Up

Another week has come and gone, and once again I'm wondering where all that time went. I really need to get that temporal vortex out of my closet. I know some of the time was spent in finally watching Stranger Things on Netflix, and a little bit was spent watching Will. As for the rest of it? I dunno. … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up

July 23, 2017August 15, 2018 / Kim @ Traveling in Books / 1 Comment

I am pleased to report that I did not melt this week after dealing with heat indexes approaching 108°F (42°C), and actual temperatures that didn't drop below 90°F until after 10:00pm. I felt like I swam to work yesterday morning through 90% humidity. But thanks to several coffee shops and bookstores with their wonderful air … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up

June Summary and July Preview

July 1, 2017August 15, 2018 / Kim @ Traveling in Books / Leave a comment

Is there anything more fun to do on a Friday night than spending forty-five minutes trying to figure out what has gone terribly wrong with your camera or editing software before figuring out that you merely changed a camera setting, and that's why things are wonky? So that was my Friday night. Part of it, … Continue reading June Summary and July Preview

June 25, 2017August 15, 2018 / Kim @ Traveling in Books / 2 Comments

I can't complain about the weather this time. It's been absolutely gorgeous. No one is running their air conditioners, everyone's windows are open, and the neighborhood kids are spending their evenings outside. Fireflies are everywhere, and so too, it seems are playful dogs. In other words, it's practically paradise around here. I've been taking advantage … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up
