Saturday morning pep-talk

By BookblogBuzz

This morning I realised, once again, just how much we take for granted. How much I take for granted. 
Friendships, health, good fortune. 

 How easy it is to make judgments, instead of just being thankful. 

 And now I sit here in my oversized room, pondering, heavy thoughts clouding up my mind while letters fly out of my fingertips.  Writing down your worries may help, but it will not change anything. We all know this, but here I am, typing, instead of doing. 

 But I'm done typing and I'd advise you all to join me on this mission.
Let's make 2014 a year of change, a year of definitive actions and a year of improvements, but most importantly, let's make it a year that will lead us into a brighter, happier future, for you and for the people around you. 
So stop writing and start doing.

Book Review: The GUESTBOOK by HOLLY MARTIN

By BookblogBuzz
   The Guestbook by Holly Martin Publisher:  Carina UK Release Date:  14th February 2014 Rating:  4* FORMAT:   Kindl e Welcome to Willow Cottage – throw open the shutters, let in the sea breeze and make yourself completely at home. Oh, and please do leave a comment in the Guestbook!

Guest Post by Jack Croxall - Pre-Halloween Special!

By BookblogBuzz
Time for another Special Guest Post,  Huzza!   Today's Guest Post will be from Nottingham-based Author Jack Croxal l! His new best-selling   short story X is now available for purchase from Amazon UK & Amazon US.  Halloween Guest blog – Jack Croxall I love Halloween. Not just because of the fancy dress and mischievous hijinks, but because of all the spooky stories that rear their creepy heads to give us goose bumps, shudders and, most importantly, that little something extra to think about. A gory supernatural horror is all well and good, but I find a spooky tale is all the more unsettling if it is driven by something real; by a theme or character we can relate to, or even by a situation we recognise from real life. Throughout the beginning of this year, I’d been mulling a horror story over in my mind constantly. I had a character, a claustrophobic setting and an unforgiving menace, but no actual theme – no real point to the story. Luckily thoug...
