Blog Village Quotes and Links
It is undoubtedly a struggle for me to post consistently (read weekly or even bi-weekly). I get my head stuck in the latest book I’m reading or the process of writing my fourth book or motherhood or just play internet-tiredness. I know it. I also know it competes with my growing desire to build what I am now at peace with referring to as “my brand”. Therefore, instead of castigating myself I have decided to launch a new component to the Diary of a Mad Reader. Namely, instead of simply posting quotes from books that resonate with me, I will be incorporating links to interesting blogs I come across. This is the first “issue” of that component.

I knew ahead of time I would be staying at the Catholic Pastoral Center. I joked with my friend, Julia that I’d probably be struck by lightning or something.
