Sorry for the lack of posts as of late....things have been very busy at work, and I wouldn't want it any other way! I'm working on two very large projects and I can't wait to show you guys the finished product in the next month or so. Things are going to start getting even busier with the holidays coming up....can you believe its that time? I hope everyone is well, and thank you guys for reading and following the blog....I really appreciate it.

~Blogging Book Club -~ Week 1

As you know the blogging book club is well under way and I hope everyone is enjoying The Help. Hopefully, you are beginning to understand the characters as they develop and are having a hard time putting it down. The characters really come to life fast, at least they did for me.

It took Kathryn Stockett five years to right her debut novel and it was rejected by at least 45 literary agents. I'm so glad someone took a chance on this novel because, not only is it a great read, but I think it sheds a lot of light into the social dynamic of the early 1960's.

Please comment and let everyone know how the novel is progressing for you. Also, it not to late to start the novel and join in!

As your reading this post I'm on my way out of town heading back to my alma mater for homecoming weekend. I'm really excited, its always a great time going back and seeing old friends and attending the game. I posted some pictures above that remind me of collegiate life. I love the preppy ensembles and I am head over hills for that turtle neck sweater, but if you know anything about me you know the last thing I need is another sweater!

So, I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and lets do it again next week!

~Yes, please.

Lets Get the Party Started!

Today is the day! The book club officially gets under way. I'm very excited about it. Its starting small and I think that's a good thing. The book will be an excellent read to carry us through October. I understand everyone reads at their own pace and we all live busy lives. I also understand this will be a very loose format for a book club, but I think by it being online it allows for that. So, with that said Tuesday will be our official Book Club Day.

I will post on Tuesdays about the book and I encourage you guys to post comments about the book along the way - message board style. I really hope you get behind this book and enjoy the club. If you have any questions or input feel free to comment....Also, blog about the book and the club as well...the more the merrier!

Let the Book Club begin!

Its a Party! ~Book Club Party That Is~

The Blogging Book Club Party kicks off on Monday October 4th! What better time to start a book club then fall and this one is going to be a winner. Our first selection is The Help by Kathryn Stockett. If you haven't heard about this book you should really check it out and join us. This is sure to be a fun way to connect with bloggers and share our thoughts on an incredible novel.

I'll post more specifics over the weekend on the way this whole thing will work. In the mean time, check out The Help, spread the word, and come join the party on Monday!
