Thank you to everyone who joined in last week and who signed up to join in this week. That is certainly a not small thing I am celebrating. :)
Full instructions including link to the badge are here but in a tasty nutshell: post something to celebrate, hop around and say YAY , WOO, TWIRL to others, feel cheery.
This week I am celebrating:
Starting to get over a bad cold - feeling a bit more human and am sure it'll soon be gone!
Going to my local writing group and feeling encouraged as ever by the company of some awesome writers.
Eating lots of chocolate! : ) (Can't cut it out every week after all.)
I have also spied around some of your blogs and seen these things to celebrate:
Julie's Cover Reveal - how beautiful is that? (And now we're veering into BIG THING to celebrate territory but I wanted to put it in!)
Tara going to an awesome Bookfest - Fun
Jessica going to a local writing group for the first time - YAY so worth it!
Julia not getting chickens - sounds like the right choice for her ;)
In other parts of the blogosphere:
Kyra Lennon and Clare Dugmore both celebrate one year blogaversarys! Not a small thing at all but a BIG THING.
I'm sure I've missed lots of ace celebratory things and apologies if I have.
Have a good weekend everyone!
Here's the list of all the participating blogs - please do visit and congratulate others! I'll be popping round later ;)
Congrats on your successes! Thanks for the link to my blog! <3

Congrats on feeling better! It seems everyone has been sick this month. Maybe we're knocking it out of the way and will be well the rest of the year. And kudos on the encouragement. Being part of a group like that is great!
ReplyDeleteI hope you continue to get over your bad cold! Chocolate helps!
ReplyDeleteGlad you're starting to feel better! And I'm glad you got jazzed up from your writer's group--it's always such a morale-boost to meet with other authors.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your achievements. Glad you're getting better from your cold, there's so many nasty bugs going round this year. It's fantastic that you were encouraged by your writing group. I wish I had one locally, but luckily I can find a lot of support and advice in the blogosphere. Oh and chocolate should always be celebrated! Thanks for organising the blog hop, it's good fun.
ReplyDeleteHurray for chocolate and getting better :)

Charity - it's that time of year for winter illness isn't it! Here's hoping as you say we're getting it over and done with.

Anstice - thank you. The blogosphere is v. encouraging!!
Allison - thank you, both of the better and the chocolate were GOOD THINGS.
Glad you are feeling better. Sorry I didn't get to post for the hop this week but I too have been struggling with illness and daily life. Hopefully will get back into things this week.
ReplyDeleteKudos to you for marshaling us for this blog hop! It's a great idea go stop and appreciate our little breaks while we endure heartbreak, setbacks, and waiting for our big breaks. LOVE IT! (And you can never have too much chocolate, esp. if it's of the dark variety.)
ReplyDeleteThanks for this wonderful blog hop. And I'm glad you're getting over being sick. Not fun. Writer's groups, on the other hand can be wonderful. Happy you've got one you can thrive in. Chocolate? No comment. :)
