Remembering September 11, 2001

Author Artie Van Why is visiting my other blog (Thoughts in Progress) today to share his thoughts on this, the 10th anniversary of the World Trade Center tragedy.

Artie was in New York City that faithful morning. He worked across from the Twin Towers and witnessed the tragedy first hand. Stop by to see what he has to say. He is the author of THAT DAY IN SEPTEMBER.

May we never forget, but grow stronger as a nation.

National Book Lovers Day

Today, August 9, is National Book Lovers Day, a time to celebrate all things books. 

For those of us roaming around blogdom, that’s a very good thing.

As you celebrate this special day, try something a little different with your reading. Take a chance on a book that is out of the genre you normally read, select a book on impulse rather than on reading the blur or a review, and if you’ve never listened to an audio book – give a try, you never know you might find a new way to enjoy books.

What are you reading today? What book would you like to read that you don’t have in your TBR stack? Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Holiday

Hope everyone has a safe and Happy Fourth of July.
