The Clerihew and You

March 11, 2015 By Robin Lee Hatcher

I love words. I love playing with words. Some words are just fun to say. Some words have lovely meanings.

March All Night

Redux: How I Make Goodreads Work for Me

January 14, 2015 By Robin Lee Hatcher

In my annual year-end post (which includes sharing the word God has given me for the new year), I mentioned how much I enjoy Goodreads and added that I don't use it for social media purposes but for my own pleasure as a reader.
