6 Degrees of Separation: From Where am I Now to Many Hearts, One Voice premium
Welcome back to Six Degrees of Separation, that literary meme where we take the title of a book and we link it to six others in any random way our mind wanders. Each book only needs to link to the one immediately preceding it, and it’s a lot of fun, so please join in! Six Degrees […]

Those That Remain: 10 Books That Stayed With Me premium
Recently a friend posted a Facebook challenge that requires nominees to list 10 books that have stayed with them in some way. I normally avoid the challenges doing the rounds of social media. They somehow remind me of the chain letters I used to receive during my childhood. And the introvert in me particularly resists those requiring video evidence. But […]
