Well this short story was an improvement from yesterday, that’s for sure. My make-up however, is a different story (pun intended). I look a hot mess this afternoon, mainly because I’m in between naps and Christmas parties. Although it looks like I had a rough night, I didn’t, I just got back from yoga and…
Highlights? I’ve changed the ‘angle’ of my video today, and both Smokey and Pearl make an appearance. It’s pretty obvious Pearl isn’t happy about her cameo; the expression on her face is a dead giveaway of this. Seems as though Smokey is more showbiz ready these days. Oh yah, I also hated this short story,…
This has been my favourite day of the advent calendars so far! The chocolate was so-so (sadly, it was dark again, like, super dark, 70% cocoa dark) but the short story was amazing, and it was only five pages! You can tell how excited I am about it in this video, I don’t think I…
My cold is slowly getting better, and to help speed things along and make my video more ‘viewable’, I’ve put on a bit more make-up today. Normally I’m not a big make-up person, but since I’ve started posting these advent youtube videos all these make-up advent calendar videos pop up on the side of my…
Even though I have contacted the plague, I am still enjoying reading my short story advent calendar and sampling my chocolate advent calendar ( side note: I can’t taste the chocolate right now, but the texture still delights me). Smokey takes front seat in this video today because she was missing the limelight. I also…
Not much to say here-anyone familiar with the author D.H. Lawrence? If so, then you’ll probably like this short story. And sorry for the lack of cats in these videos, they are hard to wrangle now that the holidays are here, I guess they’re busy Christmas shopping or something…
Below is my third vlog marking December 3, which includes a few glimpses of some of my feline companions, so you have that to look forward to. Unfortunately I’m currently battling a head cold, so there’s lots of snuffles that make appearances as well. On a happier note, the short story for today was quite…
Below is my second vlog marking December 2, and a dark turn in the short story advent calendar. The chocolate was delicious as always though, so that’s nice. Unfortunately Pearl and Smokey don’t make any appearances in this video, and my background is a sad gray wall because I hid in my basement while my…
As promised, below is my first vlog marking December 1,and the beginning of my advent calendar unveilings. These are short and sweet videos so they won’t take long to watch every day-because yes, I’m doing this every day until December 25! I forgot to mention this in my video, but the lovely Laura from Reading…
It’s getting to be that time of year folks! December starts tomorrow, and I’ve got my advent calendars (yes, that’s plural) locked and loaded. To mark this special time of year, I’m going to be posting a video each day on my youtube channel until Dec. 25. They’ll be short and sweet, recording my unveiling…
Well my Wordfest 2017 experience was WAY better than my Wordfest 2016 experience which was basically non-existent due to the fact that I contracted hand foot and mouth during last year’s festival (the joys of having young children in daycare never end!). But I was relatively healthy this year, which allowed me to take in…
It will come as no surprise to anyone that I’m counting down the days until Wordfest 2017. For my most recent trip into the CBC Studios, I gave my ‘insider’ suggestions of which authors to take in while attending Wordfest this year, as well as getting in a little promo to the event I’ll be…
