Some things I found in my travels of the world wide web
I have been ill ad this have spent an inordinate amount of time creating keyboard themes for tiny monetary amounts… And in my travels I have found some kindred spirits and I hope that they find my links to their websites and decide to come visit me and a friendship may bloom…
For right now, keep up with our Facebook page and use it as a discussion space. Post there your thoughts about what you are reading and maybe we will find a way to match readers and conversations will emerge through comments…
Also, I am working hard to find away to let us all chat sharing what we are reading and what we are thinking.. As most of my favorite series are ongoing… It means that speculation is always a fun part of reading the series and sering that every racer brings a different life experience to the reading of the books 📚 which means each of us can bring the one question or offhand comment that rocks our entire understanding of our beloved series…
A Kindred Spirits WordPress Blog!
And there is a neat promotion for the Meredith Gentry figures at another fun webpage and kindred spirit
Fun place to visit and maybe buy (or splurge) on definitely fun items
That’s it for now!
One last thing… Android deals and steals time sensitive
I discovered my limitations…
So, I like to multitask…I have done it for a long time, but I reached my limit earlier today.  I was listening to a book (I’m doing a reread) and working on a review, when my facebook messenger popped up with a note from a friend.  I had just started watching an episode of The Americans and I discovered that I cannot read subtitles, type, read, listen to a book and make sense!  So, my friends I have hit my limit at least for today!!!
