Hooks and Books

Hello and welcome to Hooks and Books. I'm Wart (it's a penname, it's an inspiration thing, it works) and I decided to start this blog for three reasons: I love to write, I love to read, and I love to crochet.

This is a blog in three parts:

First: I will post about writing. My own issues with writing - what I have the hardest time with, what I find easiest. As well as tips and tricks to help out fellow writers. And also questions for fellow writers when I really have an issue with something.

Here's a quick rundown of my rating system:

* - No good
** - Meh, kinda okay, maybe?
*** - Liked it.
**** - really good, but had some issues
***** - absolutely loved it!

Second: Books. From book reviews to excited squee about a brand new book by one of my favorite authors. I'm not the best at book reviews, but I figure practice will help and it's nice to try to articulate why I like something and why I don't like something else. I'll probably make the occasionally "What would you like to see reviewed?" post, too.

Third: Crocheting. I have recently gotten back into crocheting and I'm finding I'm not so terribly at it as I thought I'd be, so I will post about my projects (hopefully complete with pictures, I just need a camera...) as well as books I've found that I like and all that jazz. And I'll probably post some online sources that I found extremely helpful in my quest to get better.

So that's what this blog is. Welcome, I hope you enjoy it.
