Ramblings-n-Writings

Today starts the week-long Ultimate Blog Party hosted by 5 Minutes for Mom!!!!!! I’d like to give a special shout-out to all my new visitors! In honor of the party, I’m going to tell you a little about me and my blog!

10 Things about Ramblings-n-Writings and its owner…

1. I started blogging in September after coming across some very intriguing blogs and realizing I could do this too! I didn’t seriously start blogging until late January and am now anticipating my 100th post this month!!! (This is post 82, I think.)
2. The name of my blog explains what you will find on a regular basis – random writings on random topics.
3. However, in light of #2, the actual focus of my blog is on the ‘writing’ part. I want to encourage writers out there and provide tools and resources that help them. But don’t worry, even if you aren’t a writer, you will enjoy the book reviews, blog suggestions, and money saving ideas.
4. I try to write three focused posts a week: Monday Musings, Writing Wednesday, and Friday Featurettes. Monday Musings is a random collection of thoughts, Writing Wednesday focuses on my writing bloggy friends and things that may help them, and Friday Featurettes may be about beneficial blog additions, books or just about anything that can be featured.
5. I frequently participate in memes, especially ones hosted over at Money Saving Mom, but haven’t started my own yet. I am contemplating a Writing Wednesday meme so if you have suggestions…
6. My DH and I live in a very rural area (closest town is 25 miles away) on a working farm with cows, pigs, chickens, dogs, cats, and ducks. I enjoy posting occasional photos of farm animals for all of the city dwellers to enjoy. I also ramble about organic and frugal living sometimes.
7. When I’m not blogging, I work as an online English tutor as well as a freelance editor and graphic designer. English, publishing and editing are three of my favorite passions in life!!!
8. Our lives are filled with cats, dogs and fish. Yes, the cats enjoy the fish tank and occasionally try to dip a paw when no one is looking.
9. My DH and I are Christians, attend church as often as possible, and seek ways to help others. DH suffers with a rare pain disease, RSD (or CRPS), in his knee. Because of his disability and both of us being at home, we are able to spend the majority of our time together.
10. My blog is an affiliate of Christian Book Distributors so if you are looking for some awesome deals on books, Bibles, CDs, DVDs and small gift items, click on the CBD link to the right!!!
