My first wordpress post and again I’m nervous, like the first day of school.
I’m hoping as part of my new years resolutions to read more, enjoy my reading more and bring back the spark I had when I was a young voracious reader who couldn’t get enough. I was one of those stay up late with the torch and read under the bed covers sort of people. Although I titled my bed lamp so it fit under the covers and was continually told I’d burn the house down…I suppose I was lucky I never did…that lamp was VERY hot and I’d often fall asleep with the sheet wrapped around it.
I won’t bore you with a stack of details now, though I can guarantee I’ll tell you all about myself as time goes on; its what I do.
Just before Christmas this year I took part in the 2011 Advent Blog Tour and that completely sparked my interest in the reading world. I’ve continued to be a reader my entire life, but this started something new for me. I’ve always wanted to join a book club or book group and this seemed to be the turning point. I’ve already got a blog for my photography and thought I’d try out wordpress, all the cool kids are doing it right?!? Right? Anyway, wordpress seems to be the way to go, considering what I’ll be talking about.
So, sit back, enjoy the ride and hopefully I can meet some new people along the way.
Oh…and the title of this post? Its how I remember a line from the Truman Show, although I never remember these things correctly. The significance here? Well, only that I seem to interact with people from all over the world rather than in my own country (Australia) and I can never tell what time it is anywhere.
Oh…and another thing…I currently don’t have a reading challenge or group set up for 2012 at all yet. If you know of something I could participate in, please feel free to let me know. AND if you haven’t already heard, 2012 is the National Year of Reading in Australia. I’m VERY excited about it, another good reason for me to kick off my reading frenzy this year.
Ciao
