Why a Blog

Recently we had a cardinal come to our house.  And that seems appropriate since the nearest town has a cardinal mascot for the school.

Okay, so maybe some of you have wondered why I'm writing a blog.  Well, now I'll answer you.

Writing is a gift from God and I want to use it as much as I can.  I like writing!  Maybe 'love' can even be the word for how much I like it.  A person can create ANYTHING when they write and I take a bunch of pleasure in that.  I've written so many books and stories that I personally don't know how many.  Just on Sunday a girl asked how many I've written.  I truthfully answered, "I don't know."
(Maybe I should count...)

Elaine Littau is an author (and really cool, dear friend of mine) and when I was asking her all sorts of questions about writing/publishing she told me to start a blog.  At that time I was probably around 13 years old.  Well, I took her thought into consideration and decided on doing it.

I started my blog in Oct. of 2012, mainly so I could write and let people read it.  Since I live on a ranch, am homeschooled, and such, I thought a blog about those adventures would be neat.  I know that my subject is in no real genre and sometimes I wish it was, but I don't know that I'll really change it.   

This is a place I can show some of my writing style, let people from all over the world read it, and capture neat stories.  Here lately it seems it's been filled with photos, and I think I should be writing more, since that was the first reason for a blog, but then I like some of the pictures I share.

Anyway, now you know why I started it.  I hope to continue blogging and sharing more stories with you.  Thanks for reading throughout the years of this adventure.  : )
