I've tried reading this book four times throughout the year (2024-2025) and still couldn't get past page 55.

I love, love, love the background…was doing another page in this book and I had to stop to do this instead. I so wish you were still showing your work and teaching, because you are very good at both!

I’m so glad to have found this video after all these years! Exactly what I was looking for! I used to LOVE to watch your coloring videos - you were one of my very favorite ❤️. But then I got out of coloring and it looks like maybe you did too. Anyway, thank you for sharing your time and talents!

A great book! I’ve loved it for years. Wonderful video

Your site is so interesting I love it. You explain everything so well and I appreciate how you detail the color names of the pencils..something that a lot of other artists don't do well. Love your gold combo BTW! Would love to see more of your great videos.

Loved your video! The page looks gorgeous! I am awaiting my Crayola supertips but never knew about the Gesso so will be trying this. Thank you!

I just came across your color alongs and I can’t wait to get started….very nice colors and technique 😊

Bumbling along is probably the best description for what I've been doing for quite a while now and think most of 2024 will also be like. :D Wishing you all the best for 2024 and looking forward to hear your updates on how things are going.

Great to see you back. The book club and lectures sound great. I look forward to hearing more about them.

So lovely to see you! I really enjoyed hearing you speak about what you're hoping your 2024 reading year will look like.

Enjoyed the Vlog! Hope you’ll do more of these. I liked the cleaning part too. Good to see you coloring and reading!

I would watch a colouring video. Love the way you did the flowers. I haven't been doing much colouring at the moment, doing more cross stitch. I like the sound of Dark Persuasion, I do quite like psychological books that have social history with it. I think cosy mysteries are named such because the sleuth is an amateur. Like the sound of the cosy you read. Great to have you back making videos.

Thanks for a very helpful video. I especially appreciated the reminder that I can make the calendar have a Monday start if I want to.

For me, I'd usually ignore the writings in books, BUT it's so hypocritical when a library let's a person get away with writing in books if we're not allowed to write in them. My other rant is the study room use times scheduled. It's pain to try to get a study room for me, either electronically or on paper, study rooms getting filled. And checking out books online is a pain to me too.

Hi. Just colouring along with you and I couldn't find part 3. Would you have a link?

Yes please show how you use Word to make the stickers. Also where did you buy the folder and release paper (hopefully can find something similar here in Australia)? Oh and do your stickers take a lot of ink? I only have a B & W laser and so buy a new printer that is not expensive but you need tons of expensive ink is kind out for me

This is a great idea! I would also love to see how you use Word to create your sticker sheets. I find it cumbersome because of the text wrapping. I'm hoping you have some tricks!

Would love to see how you use word to make your stickers. Love the stickers you were working on.

😂 My favorite part about this discussion is always that it is always about 1-3 star reviews and how they are harmful to the author and blablabla but never address the amount of 5 star reviews. Those are just as bad and honestly, if you rely on stars only you deserve the books you get to read. So true (started typing before you addressed the 5* topics as well.)

Agree 100% with your points. Also, I have been told by an author in regards to amazon reviews, any review is better than no review. The more traffic a book gets the more the algorithm will promote it and it doesn't necessarily matter what the actual rating is. For myself, I like to read a few one star reviews when I am deciding on a book. Positive or negative, when the reviewer is specific about their likes and dislikes I get a very good feel for whether the book is for me or not. So quality matters way more than the actual star rating.

Great video. I am going to read this article - yes we as humans are decearnable and can make decisions about whether we want to read a book and if reviews are B****S*** we can also decide whether we want to read the book. I am fortunate if I give a 5* review once every 2 months. This month so far I have had a DNF and the book I am reading at the moment is probably going to be a 2* if lucky. We should definitley do a live show, where we have a cuppa and chat various bookish things.

I DNF’D this book after two chapters. Lo was incredibly annoying. Switched over to the first Stephanie Plum book and flew through it in a day.

Reasons I never read blurbs or synopses before reading the book. Go you for not DNFing.

Great video. I am so with you about book blurbs, I hate when they are so misleading. I will not be picking it up.

You and I should be best friends. You described my feelings about this book perfectly. I dnf’d at page 163. That was over a month ago and I’m still angry about this book. It felt like the author was trying to shock and provoke, like a 4 year old shouting out “knickers”. It was immature and icky. Also, I was promised murders and by page 163 they were all alive and irritating. I cannot wash the ick of this book off me. It’s the worst book I’ve ever read. The WW2 thing was ridiculous and made me furious.

Hello! Nice to meet you! Garden of Evening Mist was a gorgeous read. Love your coloring! 🤩

Oh yes, The Garden of Evening Mists was so good. Love how well you are at journaling, I really can't find the energy or artistic skills LOL

So glad that you are back, really enjoyed your video. Yes please to the reading journal video and the other journal videos. I am lovin gmy new kindle paperwhite - used it outside for the first time this afternoon and it was great.

Also just started a WL222 A5 and I love it already

Beautiful!

Love the way you have set this planner up. Great that you have made your own stickers, I had never thought of using clear stickers - thanks for the suggestion. I need to start thinking of how I am going to do planning in 2023, don't need a big planner any more.

A very beautiful finishing of this page! Love this one!

I have used fountain pens for decades, but I really love the cheaper ones best - Lamy Safari, Kaweco Perkeo, Kakunos, and even Platinum Preppy.

Beautiful! Happy Thanksgiving!

So beautiful!!

Shame about the footage. You have some really interesting works to finish. I quite like the blue teacups agaisnt the pink and purple, makes a statement. Am going to so my Gnomes soon.

I actually really liked what you did with the teacup page. I would definitely finish it. The only real WIPs I find myself with are ones for the holidays. I always find left over Halloween and Christmas ones. 99% of the time I finish everything else I start otherwise it will annoy me.

House of Leaves is one of the greatest books I've ever read. Really hope you get to finish it!

Go to edit bookshelf , then go to the title of the shelf you want the numbers to be on, hit sortable, then hit done and when you go to your shelf the numbers will be there. Sometimes you have to double check your edit bookshelf list .

Really looking forward to our buddy read. The other books in the row sound interesting, hope you get them read. Have never read Anna but have thought about it a couple of times. Love the sound of your tea.

Soooo good to see you coloring again! You pictures are very creative, and zombie Alice is looking great! Happy you did this picture in an Amazon printed book! I think those books get a bad rap when they actually work very well with almost all pencils! The SP pencils are nice. I use them when my cousin brings hers over -LOL! :-)

Soooo good to see you colouring again 💜

She is definitley green about the gills. She looks scary. Enjoyed seeing your colouring,

This was fun to watch and see you coloring again. I always like seeing the different pictures you choose and your techniques.

🎃lovelyyyy 🎃

I'm the same with my hair, short for easy maintanance and less annoyance. I always wear it up when long anyway, so why bother :D Goof luck on your November plans, looking forward to seeing more of you again.

Great to have you back. Looking forward to seeing all you read, colour and plan. Got our buddy read book today, also ordered another 2 books LOL.
