How’s My Timberdoodle Eighth Grade Curriculum Going?
If you have been reading this blog for a while, then you (probably) know that I’m homeschooled. I got a chance to review the Timberdoodle Secular Elite Eighth Grade Kit, so I wrote an unboxing post. My mom’s unboxing post is here. It is about the middle of the school year, so I’m writing…

Guest Post by Anna: Cali and the Lovedove!
Once we were taking Cali on a walk. Cali found a lovedove. Then Cali chased it. And played with it. They were friends. They played together for one hour. And they jumped onto a tree. And then Cali had to go home. But Cali was sad. So we made Cali a stuffed animal of it….
Story Musing #2
Okay, I’ve hit 5,000 words! For Camp NaNo so far, I think I’ve been doing…okay.

Getting Ready for July Camp NaNoWriMo 2018!
Are you doing Camp NaNoWriMo this July? What will you be writing about? What are some things you’re going to pack for camp? What’s your word count goal? I’m still not positive what my story will be yet…I have a few ideas, but once I started writing them I stopped liking them. Hopefully…
What I Write About and Science Fiction
Usually at some point in time when I’m meeting people, writing comes up. And, of course, they ask me what I write. And I generally don’t know what to say. What do they mean? Genre? Length? Usually I go with genre, and then, if they aren’t satisfied, I tell them about what I’m…
Books about Scotland for Kids
There are lots of books on Scotland and its history, but some books are too long or too dense for kids. Most of Scotland’s castles and historical sites have gift shops where they sell books about Scotland for kids, but if you aren’t going to Scotland, or are planning a trip, or are just interested,…
