Who’s getting excited for Christmas??? I sure am! I’ve got another Christmas tree in the background for ya! And because it’s basically Christmas now, I ate a chocolate right before I filmed this video. And…right after. Merry Christmas Eve, let’s talk tomorrow for my final advent calendar video!
I’ve got a brand new background for ya today! And some insights from my husband on this latest short story which has a very creative title (wink wink).
I’m squeaking this video in at the last minute here, which is probably a sign of things to come as Christmas draws nearer. But doesn’t the tree look so nice, all lit up as it gets darker outside? One of the few benefits of not recording this video earlier in the day I suppose. Anyway,…
I loved loved loved today’s story, I want to shout it from the rooftops! It was perfect for this snowy December 21 here in Calgary, and I enjoyed every minute of it. Another added bonus: the author is someone I’ve been curious to read for awhile, Rebecca Rosenblum. And she has cats so…everything is making…
This video is one of my longest yet, but I feel like I say next to nothing in it. Probably because I had no idea how to describe the science fiction story I just read in the advent calendar; it is literally out of this world! I know you’re groaning at the pun, but seriously,…
So thankfully I liked today’s story more than the previous two; it’s a quirky little number that got me thinking, and I’m still pondering it now. I also have a surprise for you chocolate lovers (especially you, FictionFan!), because I just received a hefty Christmas gift that will most certainly lead me into the beginning…
This video will say it all, but I was disappointed in today’s story. High hopes were dashed as I made my way into these 11 pages. It was 10 pages too long, in my opinion. Sigh…
Yikes, I’m a day late on this one. Yesterday was a crazy day, so although I read the short story (ate the chocolate) and filmed the video, I never had time to upload it. So, here it is, a day late but you’ll see why during the video! Thanks to everyone who’s hanging in there…
I’d like to claim I’m always spot on when reviewing these short stories, but it’s clear with this next video that I’m a long way off on some of them, today’s story being a perfect example. I suppose that’s the beauty of reading-we all come away with something different, but in this case I’ve come…
Wowza, ok this video is way more up-close and personal than I had hoped for this early in the morning. No make-up, not even brushed teeth in this one, but I really enjoyed today’s short story so you have a glowing review to look forward to. Oh, and Smokey makes an appearance too, as does…
I’m tight on time these days (isn’t everyone at this time of year?) so I’m squeaking in these videos right at the tail end of my toddler’s nap. Or, in today’s case, her two hour lay around in bed, singing and reading books. Whatever, I’ll take whatever alone time I can get, especially because these…
Wow, we are at our halfway point already!!! I’m so impressed with how varied each story is in the advent calendar has been, it feels like I’m getting a taste of every possible kind of writing out there (which is the point of an advent calendar, I suppose). Which leads me to a question; does…
