4 May 2016 Today’s prompt: It’s a text, text, text world! How do you communicate differently online than in person, if at all? How do you communicate emotion and intent in a purely written medium?

365 DoW: Day Thirty One
3 May 2016 Today’s prompt: The Little Things! Describe a little thing—one of the things you love that defines your world, but is often overlooked.

365 DoW: Day Twenty Nine
1 May 2016 Today’s prompt: Personal space! To what extent is your blog a place for your own self-expression and creativity vs. a site designed to attract readers? How do you balance that?

28 April 2016 Today’s prompt: Your time to shine! Early bird or night owl? If you had asked me this question a couple of years ago, my answer would have been very different. I was in university at the time and I loved being awake at night. I enjoyed sleep and was way more productive …
365 DoW: Day Twenty Five
27 April 2016 Today’s prompt: Wall to wall! What do you display on the walls of your home—photos, posters, artwork, nothing? How do you choose what to display? What mood are you trying to create? I don’t have my own house (yet) so I don’t really have much say in what goes on the walls …

26 April 2016 Today’s prompt: Second time around! Tell us about a book you can read again and again without getting bored—what is it that speaks to you?

365 DoW: Day Twenty Three
25 April 2016 Today’s prompt: Clone wars! If you could clone yourself, how would you split up your responsibilities? I like to think if I could clone myself, I’d be able to create more than one clone. Clone #1 would be my worker bee. She would be the one to go to work every day …
