Why I decided to start blogging...

As a child, I would read anything I could get my hands on. Now with a 8-5 job, I have to schedule the time to read. Although, every once and awhile, certain books will come along that make me stay up until 1AM to finish them, for example, "Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" by Stieg Larsson. I love to read anything from chick lit, historical fiction, mysteries, science fiction, to some romance and thrillers that are not too scary. I will pretty much try to read anything.

In the last year, I've been inspired to write more after reading several bloggers turned writers, like "Julie & Julia: 365 Days, 524 Recipes, 1 Tiny Apartment Kitchen" by Julie Powell and "Bitter is the New Black" by Jen Lancaster. I've always enjoyed keeping a diary and I'm curious to try this new creative outlet. I hope you appreciate my random and varied interests. Please join me in my journey to become a better writer.
