Last day to get a romantic journal for Valentine’s Day! 💕 Which one of these journals is your favorite?

02/08/2023

Does your loved one love cooking or baking? What better gift to give them for Valentine’s Day than a cookbook journal! These are some of our favorite types of journals because we keep some of the recipes from the book inside but then there are blank pages to be filled with your own recipes. It is honestly the cutest gift you can give.

First of February means time to get a meaningful gifts for those you love! ❤️We have the best unique and meaningful gifts! Go check out our Valentine’s Day book journals on our website.

It’s day 4 of twelve days of journal prompts! Today’s prompt is to draw your ideal snowman ⛄️ the past week we got buckets of snow in Utah. So it felt like a good time to do a snowy prompt ❄️

If you end up drawing your own snowman today, please share it with us! We would love to see it!

Welcome back to TWELVE DAYS OF JOURNAL PROMPTS! If you are just joining us it is day 2, so take some time to write in your journal with us!

Today’s prompt is…who is your favorite Christmas movie character and why? 🎄You can definitely do this while you are watching the movie. That’s what I’m doing.

My favorite is the Grinch, 💚specifically the Jim Carrey version because he is so relatable and just like him I am trying to enjoy Christmas for the experiences more than the gifts.🎁

If you end up writing the prompt please don’t be afraid to share with us in the comments or tag us in a post or story! Happy Day 2

A Vermont author with some wise words.

This is likely the last image of my bike beside a Vermont library I’ll post this season. And so I chose this beauty, though shuttered, for the finale. I love libraries, beacons of light in a world that often is dark. And, these days, libraries are as important as ever, protecting free speech — including three of my challenged novels — the vitality of multigenerational spaces, programming for everybody, and critical support for underserved communities. Libraries rock; librarians rule. My deepest thanks to librarians everywhere.

Best first line in literature: Where's Papa going with that ax?"

Most book sales are run by little old ladies who have a love for the sharing of great books! You have to have a strong back and stamina!

My mom. Here she is at 90, buying books at the Niagara Falls Book Riot. When I was a kid, she started the used book sale in support of Women's Place of South Niagara Inc., which provides shelter and treatment for abused women. She ran the sale for 10 years, a huge undertaking involving 100+ volunteers (including me). Year 1, the sale earned $400. Year 10, it earned $19,000. This year, it earned a whopping $93,000! And no doubt the Book Riot—the many books I bought and read—played a role in shaping me as a reader and a novelist. Take a bow, Mom. What a legacy!
