Reflections

Beth Ann Chiles/ Inspiration/ 18 Comments/ 654

It’s been an emotional week for me for some reason. I think the grief is slipping up on me and I am realizing that it happens when I am least expecting it. But then that is grief, isn’t it? This year alone I can name Continue reading →

I Choose Love

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 12 Comments/ 466

I choose love over hate anytime. I choose positivity over negativity. I choose glass half full over glass half empty. I choose happiness over sadness. I choose embracing over holding at arm’s length. I choose lightness over darkness. I choose to be part of the Continue reading →

No Words

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 26 Comments/ 551

If you are like me the event that took place in Uvalde, Texas on Tuesday shook you to your core. Another mass shooting. More innocent lives taken. Parents who did not get to say goodbye to their babies. And yes, they were babies. I think Continue reading →

You Say Tomato, I Say Tomato

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 16 Comments/ 452

Did you read the title of that correctly?  I know you did!  Today’s post is all about words. All about language and some quirks that you may or may not know. I love words.  I am a word nerd. I love how I can learn Continue reading →

Looking Back

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 30 Comments/ 515

I saw someone pose the above question on Facebook this past week and it got me to thinking. Growing up in a preacher and teacher’s family with 4 children was something that I treasure. I had all that I needed and more. We didn’t have Continue reading →

The Brown Daze

Beth Ann Chiles/ Family, Writing/ 20 Comments/ 3771

I hail from a family of writers. It’s a nice thing to know that others who have gone before have been creatives who like to share their words with others. My great, great uncle, Rollo Walter Brown, was a prolific writer and by all accounts Continue reading →

Happiness Counts

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 16 Comments/ 395

Yesterday was all about Crabby Appleton. I decided today I should write about happiness. How about a book to help keep the happiness going? This one is called 14.000 Things to Be Happy About I love this book. The author, Barbara Ann Kipfer, started writing down Continue reading →

Just Give Me Good Old Pen and Paper

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 15 Comments/ 552

I am a fan of the good old fashioned pen and paper. Now mind you – I LOVE technology. I love my MacBook Air. I love all things that make my life easier and my computer definitely does that for me. I can’t imagine being Continue reading →

Monday Musings

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 18 Comments/ 442

Another Monday, another week, another continuation of the week before. Am I the only one who feels this way? Or is it a common feeling out there? I just feel like the weeks are running into each other with not much differentiating between them. This Continue reading →

Old Girls in Low Cotton
by Helen Childress
This short book was one that looked like it would be a fun read. I honestly did not enjoy it all that much---it was a lot of characters bickering and while some of the writing was witty and funny it was not that kind of book that made m...
The Good Girl
5 of 5 stars
The Good Girl
by Mary Kubica
I loved this book! It had my interest from the very first page and was my "airplane" book on a recent trip. Author Mary Kubica created believable and interesting characters that the reader learned to identify with and care about. Mi...

All the Light We Cannot See
by Anthony Doerr
This is quite a book! I had it recommended to me by several people and while I thought it might be a little dark and depressing it made me have a better understanding of what life in this time period was like. The strength of the huma...

by John Green
Another great book by John Green. I have become a huge fan of John Green since my reading of A Fault in our Stars and this book was another that did not disappoint me at all. It was a story of a child prodigy, a lot of anagrams, and a b...
