Hello everybody and happy Monday! I hope you are having an amazing start to your week! ☺️
I’m here today with a tag I was nominated for from Corrie’s blog; here is her post. The rules for this tag are very simple: copy the questions and answer them in your post. Give a shout out to the creator of the tag (Tinyshroom), as well as whoever’s blog you found it on or whoever nominated you. Very simple and fun, so I’ll just get right into answering those questions!
Do you like rainy days or sunny days? I love both for different reasons. Curling up inside with a good book, or baking some bread, are such nice activities to do when it’s rainy. But, overall, I’d have to go with sunny days, because I love spending time outside!
What’s the first thing you do in a day? I try to pray and thank God for my day first thing in the morning (after waking up, of course!)
What’s your favorite day of the week? It might sound strange, but Mondays may be my favorite day of the week! I know that most people hate them, but I like Mondays because they’re a brand new start to a new week! 😃
Crochet for an entire day or read for an entire day? This is a tricky question, as these are both very big hobbies of mine. I’d probably go with reading for an entire day because crocheting for long periods of time can sometimes make my wrists ache, which isn’t very fun.
Are there any approximate times when you get bursts of information? I’m not sure…I’m wondering if the question meant inspiration because that seems like a more likely question. If that’s the case, it’s probably whenever I’m going to bed. However, if it’s information, I guess it’s while I’m working on school.
What’s your favorite meal to make or eat for breakfast? I love bagels and cream cheese (especially making the homemade bagels). I also love fruit smoothies! I find it fun to experiment with the ingredients, and not following a certain recipe.
What about your favorite meal to make or eat for lunch/dinner? Hmmm…pizza maybe. That’s definitely one of my favorites. 😋 Ooh, or pasta! Ugh, now, I’m just making myself hungry!
Would you rather spend all day inside or outside? If the weather was nice, I’d choose to go outside. I love spending time outside and in nature, even if I’m just reading or working on school.
What’s something you’d do on your idealistic day? I would probably go thrift store or book shopping, and maybe go on a nice hike!
What’s something that ruins your day? Going to bed late the night before. I am very much a morning person, so I hate staying up late, but when that happens, I usually sleep in or don’t get enough sleep, and I end up tired all morning.
What’s something that makes your day better? When I get a good run in in the morning! I always feel more energized and productive throughout the day when this happens.
Who is the first person you text in a day? I don’t have a lot of friends, so I don’t text many people. Sometimes, my cousin and I chat, though!
What’s your favorite place to go to in a day? I like going outside, or in my room, I guess.
Would you rather fly for a day or have super strength for a day? I think that it would be fun to be able to fly! I don’t see what I’d do with super strength.
What’s your least favorite weather to happen in a day? I like most weather, as long as it’s not lasting for a long time. For example, I enjoy rainy days, but if it rains for a week straight, I’m going to get tired of it. Same with snow, or cold weather.
What’s your favorite snack to eat in a day? I like chocolate and popcorn a lot.
What’s your favorite blog category to poston in a day? I enjoy posting in different categories at different times, so this is a hard question. Overall, I probably enjoy posting bookish content!
What’s your favorite kind of book to check out from the library in a day? I read a lot of YA contemporaries, as well as historical fiction, so one of the two, depending on what my mood is at the moment.
What’s your favorite clothing to wear in a day? (An outfit for staying at home and an outfit for going out). I mostly wear skirts and dresses, so my outfits incorporate one of the two most of the time. I wear a lot of the same clothing out as I do at home. I like dresses/skirts that are comfortable, yet still nice looking.
I will leave an open nomination for this post! If you want to do this tag, go for it!
That’s all for today’s post! I hope you liked it. How would you have answered these questions? Were you surprised by any of my answers? I’d love to chat in the comments!
Thank you all for reading, and have a lovely week! I’ll be back next Monday with a brand new post; bye until then!
Hello everybody! Welcome to a brand new post, starting this brand new week! How is your Monday going?
Today, I am participating in the Once Upon a Time Book Tag. Thanks to Diamond for tagging me! This looks like lots of fun, so let us dive right in to the post!
Rules
Thank the blogger who tagged you
Use the featured graphic (optional)
Answer the following 12 questions about books you have read
Tag as many bloggers as you like!
Cinderella—a book that changed your life
For this one, I’ll go with the Hunger Games series by Suzanne Collins, just because it was one of those book series that got me into reading. If I hadn’t read this, I don’t know if I would even be a reader, or at least, I would not read to the extent that I do now. The Hunger Games remains one of my favorite series to this day!
Sleeping Beauty—a book that took you forever to finish
The Lord of the Rings series is amazing, but each of the books did take me quite a while to read, just because of the older way it is written. I got through the three books in about a year, but that counts taking long breaks between each one. Classics always take me a little while to get through, but I do really enjoy reading them!
A Thousand and One Nights—a book you couldn’t stop reading
I consume basically any Kasie West book with speed, especially Love, Life, and the List. Love, Life, and the List is definitely one of my favorite Kasie West books, but, honestly, they are all super sweet, fun, and quick reads.
Little Red Riding Hood—a book you recently read in an unfamiliar genre
In this category, I’ll put The Adoration of Jenna Fox by Mary E. Pearson. I wouldn’t normally read sci-fi, but this was actually quite good. I thought it was very interesting, though I’m not sure I’ll finish the series.
The Wild Swans—a book with your favorite sibling relationships
I had to go with Little Women by Louisa May Alcott for this one! I love the March sisters so much, and that’s most definitely one of my favorite things about the book.
Snow White—a book filled with beautiful prose
I actually don’t know what prose are. I tried Googling it, but I just can’t find a good answer. If anyone has this knowledge, please let me know in a comment.
Rapunzel – a book you procrastinated on reading after buying
The Midnight Dancers by Regina Doman. Technically, I didn’t buy this book, I was gifted it. But I did procrastinate on reading it after I got it, just because it didn’t follow the original cast of characters as in the previous three books in the series, and I wasn’t sure I’d like that. I did really enjoy it, though!
The Little Mermaid – a book that took you on a magical journey
I wanted to choose LOTR for this one, but I already chose it for a previous prompt soo…I’ll go with The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien! 😄
The Frog Prince – a book you’d like to turn into a frog because you hated it so much
This one wasn’t hard: We’ll Always Have Summer by Jenny Han. The whole series wasn’t great, but this last book was just…😖 Don’t even bother reading it.
Peter Pan – a book that reminds you of your childhood
The Little House on the Prairie books definitely remind me of my childhood. I grew up reading these for school and fun, and I really enjoyed them! They are very nostalgic for me.
The Goose Girl – a book that you had low expectations for, but ended up loving
Surprisingly, Lovely War by Julie Berry was just one of these books! I thought that it sounded a bit strange, and I’d never really heard of it. I didn’t think that it would surmount to anything amazing. I was wrong. It is one of my favorite books, and I would definitely recommend picking it up if you haven’t read it!
Hansel and Gretel – a book that made you hungry
Definitely Love and Gelato by Jenna Evans Welch! Gelato sounds delicious, and I want to try it someday.
I tag:

Hello and happy Monday! How is the start to your week?
So, today’s post is going to be very very fun. I will be using the “What’s your WIP (work in progress) Writing Tag” to introduce y’all to the newest book I’ve started to write. The book is called A Songwriter’s Summer for now, as I decided to name it, so I don’t get caught talking about it as “My Contemporary Book” or something to that nature, like I did with “My Dystopian Book”.
Speaking of my dystopian book, I used this tag once before to give y’all a little peek into that book. Here it is if you are interested!
This book is the newest one I’ve been writing and is the main writing project I’ve been working on lately. It is a contemporary YA book. I will leave the rest of the explanation and summary for this book to the tag!
The Rules
Thank the person who tagged you & link to their blog.
Tag as many or as few people as you wish & let them know they’re tagged.
Add a clean copy of the questions at the end of your post for the “tagged.”
Has your WIP a working title? If so, tell us! If not, have you any idea of what it might be?
As I said earlier, A Songwriter’s Summer is the name I’ve given my book for the time being. It probably won’t stick, but I decided to at least come up with a name for now, so I had something to call it. I think that this name sort of explains the story to some extent (it follows the main character, who is a songwriter, and it takes place during the summer) but the title also sounds like some sort of songwriting camp or something, so I’ll probably change it sometime down the road. It works for now, though!
Have you a synopsis for your WIP? If so, give it to us! If not, can you give us a blurb on what your WIP is about?
I don’t have a synopsis written, so I will just explain the story a bit.
This book follows seventeen-year-old Breena West, who loves writing songs, and secretly dreams of becoming a songwriter. The problem? Her parents don’t consider that a career and they are pushing her to go to college and pursue a more stable career that she can support herself with. When one of Breena’s favorite songwriters announces that she’s hosting a songwriting contest that has the potential to grant the winners recognition and fame, Breena sees this as her chance to show her parents that this passion for songwriting doesn’t have to be only a hobby.
Many things happen that summer. Her parents become concerned with Breena’s grades. Fynn Cooper, a fellow eleventh grader, begins helping Breena with her classes. Breena’s older, perfect-seeming sister comes home from college for the summer, and her brother shortly after. Through this period of months, Breena will discover many things, learn to understand the views of others, and to be more compassionate.
I understand that this is not a very good synopsis, but I had to write it real quick. I was just finishing this post up (because, of course, I waited until the last minute) so I am writing this just before posting.
Have you a working/mock cover for your WIP? If so, show us! If not, have you an idea in mind?
I actually do! Here it is:
This is a very basic cover design that I created on Canva. I like how it turned out, and just the simplicity of it!
How did you get the idea for this story?
I honestly don’t remember! I have recently been wanting to write a contemporary book with the main character being a songwriter, as I have become more interested in song and poem writing. I remember having the sort of idea for this book in my mind for a while, and after a while, I wrote it all down and planned the story further.
How long do you think it will be? Is it longer or shorter than you thought it would be?
I am only a few chapters in, but I have the whole book planned out. I believe it will be just about the length of an average novel, maybe a bit shorter, but I guess we’ll see!
Who’s your favourite character so far?
I love all of my characters! One of my favorite things about this book so far is that I can relate to each of the characters in some way, and see where they are coming from. Up to this point, I like Fynn a lot, as well as Breena’s best friend, Lea.
What’s your favourite memory related to this WIP?
Probably when I was in the planning phase! After I got the idea for this novel, I bought a special notebook and began planning it all out, writing every little thing down, and coming up with ideas as to where the story would go. I love looking back at those pages now, and seeing how the first ideas have been formed into the whole story that it is now!
Any special person(s) who helped create it?
My older sister! She mostly just listens to me ranting about the characters or talking about the plot. I also let her read it as I write, and she gives me helpful advice and constructive criticism. Thank you!
What’s your favourite scene so far (if you can tell about it without spoilers!)?
Hmmm…🤔 I’m not sure. There is a scene that I’m excited to write that will be at the end of the book, but I can’t describe it without giving away most of the story. So far, I have enjoyed writing the first few interactions between Breena and Fynn, and I am looking forward to the introduction of a new character that I will be writing in soon!
Can you give us a snippet?
Sorry, I can’t yet. I just don’t feel like there is anything I’ve written yet worthy of sharing as a snippet. Stay tuned, though, because I plan to share more about this book in the future!
Is the story still what you thought it would be or has it thrown you a couple curveballs?
It’s definitely got a different ending than what I planned at first! Besides that, though, not a lot of changes have taken place yet. I am, as I said, only a few chapters in, so I’m sure that there will be some changes that I decide on as I write and get to know my characters better.
Is there a Bible verse, poem, hymn, picture, or quote that helped shape this story?
Not that I can think of at the moment.
When and where have you done most of the writing so far?
I am writing the first draft of this book in a notebook, and I’ve written a lot of it outside, actually!
Where do you get inspiration for this story?
I take a lot of inspiration from my daily life and add it to the book like I do with the other books I’ve worked on. Conversations, traits in my characters, the observations of those around me, and certain situations are all incorporated.
Are you a plotter or a pantser?
I am a big planner! I mentioned earlier that I bought a notebook to brainstorm and plan the book, and that was in the summer. I believe I just started writing this book in January, so that was about six months of planning out this book! I worked out all of the characters and basically everything that happens because I hate going into the book without a clear knowledge of the story and how it progresses!
Do you have a little ritual before you start writing?
I like to have music, usually, as well as something to drink while I’m writing. Other than that, not really. I just get my notebook out and begin writing!
Are you thinking of publishing this story?
Probably not, but you never know!
What things have you learned while writing this story?
To have fun with it! Sometimes I have to force myself to write to get through a rough patch, but I have also found ways to work on this story without writing, such as developing characters further, finding songs for each character, or writing about it like I am with this post. I do love writing, but sometimes, doing something related to the story is just as important if I don’t feel like writing.
I’m not going to tag anyone to do this tag, because I don’t know who is working on writing a book at the moment. However, if you do have a current WIP, I’d love to see you use this tag! Here is a list of the questions for anyone who plans on doing the tag:
Has your WIP a working title? If so, tell us! If not, have you any idea of what it might be?
Have you a synopsis for your WIP? If so, give it to us! If not, can you give us a blurb on what your WIP is about?
Have you a working/mock cover for your WIP? If so, show us! If not, have you an idea in mind?
How did you get the idea for this story?
How long do you think it will be? Is it longer or shorter than you thought it would be?

Any special person(s) who helped create it?
What’s your favourite scene so far (if you can tell about it without spoilers!)?
Can you give us a snippet?

Are you a plotter or a pantser?
Do you have a little ritual before you start writing?

What things have you learned while writing this story?
That will be all for today! I hope that you all enjoyed getting a little more information on my WIP, A Songwriter’s Summer. How did you like this post? Do you have any more questions about my book? I’d love to hear from you in the comments! Also, if you guys have any more post ideas that I can write to share more about this book, I’d love to hear them! Maybe an aesthetic or playlist?
I hope that everyone has a lovely week, and I’ll see y’all next Monday!
Hello and happy Monday, everyone! Thanks for clicking on this post of mine today. I got tagged by both Diamond and Sawyer, so thank you both! This post has been sitting in my drafts for quite a while now, and I figured I’d get it posted today. 😃
The rules for this tag are simply to thank the person who tagged you, write your seven word story, and tag 3 people.
My story:
“Time has passed, yet the memories linger.”
This tag was actually harder than I thought it would be! I really struggled with narrowing it down to just seven words. I very much wanted to write a longer story from this sentence, but I guess that this will have to be it. How do you like it?
I will tag: Selina, BetsyJane, and AnnaKate. Looking forward to reading y’all’s short stories if you end up doing this tag!
Thanks for reading! I will be back with a new post next week, so goodbye until then!
Hello and happy Monday! Today, I have a fun post for y’all: a Christmas tag!! Because it’s just under two weeks until this lovely holiday, I thought that I’d participate in this tag, which has been created by Addie and Shanessa. Thanks to Heidi for the nomination! This tag looks very fun, and I am excited to answer the questions! Let’s get right into it.

The Questions
What is your favorite family Christmas tradition (if you have one)?
We don’t have a lot of traditions. Maybe getting up early on Christmas and talking with my siblings, and then opening gifts. Also, every year, my family goes to look for a tree, which is a fun experience and family tradition, although the trees aren’t always the best. We go and find a tree, cut it down, and then we will go on a short hike!
What is your favorite Christmas food/drink?
Christmas cookies are yummy, especially gingerbread! They’re just so Christmasy! Eggnog is also good, although I’ve only had it once.
Is Christmas your favorite holiday? Why or why not?
It’s between Christmas and Thanksgiving. In the end, I’d probably go with Christmas, but Thanksgiving is an amazing holiday as well, with food, family and friends, and being reminded of all to be thankful for. However, on Christmas, we are celebrating Christ’s birth, which makes it my favorite holiday. I just don’t like how stressful and commercialized this Christian holiday has become.
What is your favorite Christmas song?
Just one? I don’t know if I can do this, lol. 😄 I tend to enjoy listening to some of the more traditional songs and hymns, but there are also some more modern songs, too. The First Noel, What Child Is This, Breath of Heaven, Feels Like Joy, Silent Night, How Many Kings, Christmas Tree Farm, O Holy Night, Go Tell It On the Mountain…these are just a few!
What is your favorite Christmas activity?
Making Christmas cookies is really fun! I like all of the peppermint flavors and the ginger in gingerbread or gingersnaps. They smell so good baking, too!
What is your favorite Christmas memory?
I have so many! I don’t think that I can choose just one.
What is your most favorite Christmas gift you have ever got?
Again, I’m not sure if I can decide on one. I’m not sure about my favorite, because every gift I have gotten may have been useful or something that I loved a lot, but they are all different and hard to compare.
What is your favorite part of Christmas day?
I love going to Christmas Eve Mass, and singing Christmas hymns beforehand. However, I don’t know if this counts because we usually go on Christmas Eve instead of the morning of Christmas. On actual Christmas day, one of my favorite things is getting up early with my siblings, and just spending time with family in general.
What’s your favorite? Ham or turkey for Christmas dinner?
We don’t usually have a traditional Christmas dinner of ham or turkey. If I chose one, though, I’d go with ham. That is because we go with turkey on Thanksgiving, so we’ve usually had it more recently than ham when Christmas comes around.
…and anyone else who wants to do this tag on their blog! If anyone I tagged has already done this, is tag free, or doesn’t want to do this tag, don’t feel pressured to!

Hello everybody! How is your week going? Today, I am sharing a tag that I created!
This tag is called the music-loving writer’s tag! I came up with the idea because I always love listening to music while writing. This tag was created to combine both the love of music and writing!
I’m just going to ignore all of the tags that bloggers have nominated me for, that I still have to get caught up on, and instead, I’m going to create a new tag
I don’t know if anyone will really do it, but I just thought it would at least be fun for me to do on here! I’ll use it to talk a bit about my contemporary novel.
Rules
Thank and mention the blogger who nominated you, or whose blog you found this on
Tag your post ‘musiclovingwriterstag’ so I can read your posts!
Nominate as many people as you want, or leave an open nomination for anyone who wants to join
Prompts
Share the song that you listen to most when writing your book I have a whole playlist that I made for when I’m writing my book (it mostly consists of Taylor Swift songs), so I usually just put that on when I’m working on my book. However, one of my favorite songs to write to is maybe “Driver’s License” by Olivia Rodrigo, if I’m writing a sad/emotional scene, or “Today Was a Fairytale” by Taylor Swift if it’s a happy scene. Still, it really depends on the part I’m writing, and I don’t usually just turn on a song when I write. I normally just shuffle my playlist and listen to whatever songs come on, and I’ll skip the song if it’s not the right vibes for the scene I’m writing!
Share the title of a song that is similar to the title of your book My current WIP (work in progress) is a summery, sweet contemporary novel called “Old Hopes and New Beginnings” (at least for now. I’ll probably change the name sometime because this is just a placeholder name to use before I really come up with a real name.) I think that the title “I Almost Do” or “Begin Again” by Taylor Swift could work.
Share a song that would be your main character’s favorite song There are two main characters in my book. One of them is more extroverted, friendly, and bubbly, and I think she would really like Taylor Swift, especially the “Speak Now” album. The other main character is shy, quiet, and can often be found procrastinating. I think that she would really like the song “Dandelions” by Ruth B for some reason.
Share a song that describes one character’s thoughts/feelings “Invisible” by Taylor Swift. It totally describes one of my character’s situation and feelings.
Share an album or song cover that fits the aesthetic of your book Taylor Swift’s album “Taylor Swift” fits the summery aesthetic of my book!
Share your go-to album when writing Taylor Swift’s album “Fearless” is the one I listen to most, with “1989” coming in second. I also listen to a lot of Olivia Rodrigo. Like I said, I usually listen to my writing playlist, which contains a mix of Taylor Swift, Olivia Rodrigo, and a few other random songs, but I’ll occasionally also listen to an album.
Nominations
Anyone who is working on writing a book, and who loves music!!

Raegan’s Answers
1: What is your favorite blog post of mine and why?
2: What would you like to be known for: your name, or your blog name?
Giving out useful information and just fun posts to read.
3: What is the weirdest comment you’ve ever gotten on your blog?
I got one comment that said, “I LOVE DOGS?” Which I thought was interesting. But that person who sent that said a lot of other weird creepy stuff.
4: Do you think cereal is soup? Why or why not?
I do not think it is because when I think of a soup I think of something much more savory. If you do think it is a soup I am fine with that I would not be offended.
5: If you had a controller to rewind or fast forward your blog, which would it be?
Rewind.
6: If you two were to be buddy characters in a movie, which characters would you be and why?
I would probably be whichever character is sarcastic because I like to write sarcastically.
7: What is the most boring part of posting blog posts for you, or what part of posting a blog are you laziest about?
Probably just trying to start writing a post. Once I start I can just keep writing but it takes me a little while to actually start the writing process, lol.
8: If you could transform into any animal, what would it be and why?
A horse. Because they are pretty and strong.
9: If your blog had a superpower or magical element, what would it be?
To transform into any animal.
10: If you were given the power to exchange blogs for a day, which things would you change or adapt first?

(If I tagged you, and you don’t want to do it/already did it/are tag-free, sorry I bothered you!)

Thanks again, Raegan, for doing this with me! I had a lot of fun!! Everyone, make sure to go check out her blog; she has a lot of amazing posts and great photography! Thanks for reading, and have an awesome day!! Bye!
Hello everyone! I know it’s Monday, and I usually post on Wednesdays and Saturdays, but I thought I would do an extra Monday post, because so many people hate Mondays, and I thought this would give some people some…joy!!! Hope you like it! ♡
Since it’s almost Christmas, I decided to create a Christmas tag/nomination! I hope you like it! Also, this is my first time making one of these, so I don’t know if it’s that good or if anyone else will really do it, but I thought it would be fun!

Do you have any holiday traditions?
What’s your favorite part of Christmas?
What’s your favorite Christmas cookie?
What’s your favorite Christmas song?
What’s your favorite Christmas film?
What’s your favorite Christmas memory?
My answers!
1: Do you have any holiday traditions? My siblings and I get up really early (usually around four) and just go to the living room and talk about Christmas and stuff. Our parents made a rule that we couldn’t wake them up until five, so we always have to wait for a while before opening presents and everything.
2: What’s your favorite part of Christmas? I like spending time with family, and the whole story of the first Christmas.
3: What’s your favorite Christmas cookie? I don’t know if I can choose!! Gingerbread are always the classic cookies, but I also really love those snowball cookies and the peppermint ones!
4: What’s your favorite Christmas song?
I really like Silent Night, as well as The First Noel! They’re both such beautiful songs.
5: What’s your favorite Christmas film?
There are a lot, and I know I can’t pick only one! I like It’s a Wonderful Life, and even though I used to think it was boring, I like it now! I also like The Christmas Project, Christmas Carol, and Elf.
6: What’s your favorite Christmas memory?
I don’t really know if there is just one. I have so many! Every Christmas is such an beautiful time!
