What? No blog post graphic? I know, it's shocking isn't it?

The truth is, I'm still fighting bad athma. My life has just been turned upside-down as I try to get back to something resembling normal, haha! Not saying this to complain, have a pity-party, or any of that. :P I just really appreciate all of you who follow my blog and I don't want to leave you hanging, wondering where I am or what happened to me lol. Thank you soooo much for your amazing support! I'll be back with gusto when I've beat this thing. ;) In fact, I get pretty excited just thinking of all the lovely blog-related stuff I've got cooking up in my brain. So, that said... bear with me a little bit as I get past this asthma. My July Writing Challenge story is going to be a bit late, posts will likely be slower or nonexistent for a week or two. But I'll be back. *dramatic orchestration please*. 

Before I go, though, I wanted to announce the randomly-selected giveaway winner so y'all aren't in suspense any longer!! :) Faith Potts, congratulations! You win a signed copy of Jonas and Olivia, a leather journal, and some pretty neat bookmarks. ;) I'll be sending you the package posthaste. ;) To all the rest of you--thank you SO so so much for entering! I wish I could give you all presents too and a smile in person to say thank you. ;) 
​
Hope you all have a lovely day,
<3

Hey Victoria! Sorry you aren't feeling well. I have been praying that you will get better and will continue to do so! I just finished reading Jonas and Olivia. I super duper liked it. It was so sweet, and you did a super job with the characters' personalities. I enjoyed Olivia's sweetness and positive outlook on life. She was also quite brave to stand up to Jonas when she did and to make the best of the situation she was placed in. I think we can all learn something from her. I also like Ishmael. He was super sweet. :) And Jonas was such a character! I think all that time he really wanted someone to love, but he was just pushing everyone away so he wouldn't get hurt again. Nabby was also quite the character. I love the part where Olivia asks Nabby if she has a large family, and Ishmael just rolls his eyes. That was hilarious! It was a really good plot. I liked it. Well, I have at least three things in common with the book: My name is Abigail, I play the violin, and I am fourteen years old like Olivia! It was neat to be able to relate to her in that way. I also really liked the Culpepper Tales. I was so excited when I found the link at the end of the book. I think my favorite was the second one. All the brothers were so sweet (except for maybe Ebenezer, but he went to tell Pa so I guess that's something.) :) I also liked how Jonas made an appearance in that one. That was pretty neat. I laughed out loud when Boaz used Adriel's stocking to put on Salome's burnt foot. Well anyway, I hope you get to feeling better! I will miss your blog posts!

Congrats to the winner! :) It's the first time I've ever participated in giveaways; I did three this year and I love the excitement and possibilities! Isn't there something in ‘Anne of Green Gables’ about that? Something about the flying being the best even if you fall to earth with a thud or whatnot, I think. :)
