Blog News- October Issue

So, I meant to post this yesterday but I was busy writing and procrastinating. It was fun.

Blog News

Welcome New Members!
Welcome new members who have joined in the month of October! We love seeing your friendly avie there in the follower box! Last month we had a total of twenty five and this month we jumped to twenty-nine. 

Schedule Changes- Again
So because I'm actually reading more books and I thought I'd be able to, I've changed Sundays to books reviews. And on Sundays and Thursdays, I will be reviewing two books each time. On Mondays, I've also added Writing Prompts.

It's Nanowrimo Time!
Hey writers! It's that month again! November is official National Writing a Novel Month! For those who are doing it, have you signed up at the site yet? If you have, add me! I'm known as Sareh Qu. on it. Anyways, I'd love to hear how you're doing and what you're writing for this year.

Reminders from last month:
Wanted- Suggestions 
Did you recently come across an interesting article or piece of news? Do you have a favorite picture/video that inspires you or you think is just awesome? Is there a great site you visit all the time? Or do you have a great idea for a blog post or a topic you would like to see discussed? If you have a suggestion for something or maybe you would even like to do/see a blog post on something, please let me know though either the facebook page, the contact form at the bottom of the About page, or by emailing me (email address at the bottom of the About page).


Resource Tab
Because it's already getting pretty long and so far I've only added books and websites to it, I was wondering if I should add a category for individual pages? I'm not sure if this new category would be organized at all. So what do you think?


Wanted- Writing Ideas and Prompts
My brain isn't great with coming up good ideas, so if you have any writing prompts or ideas you'd like to share, please do so! Or maybe you have a funny story or something random/cool, that works too. Maybe a picture or video?


Facebook:
Yes! We finally have a facebook page! If you haven't liked it so far, please do so! Remember that you can post suggestions and other stuff on it if you'd like but just remember to keep it clean and safe. No swearing or anything with offensive stuff. I'll try my best to keep it updated with blog posts from here and news or whatever else.
