The Nature of Winter | Jim Crumley

#NaturaLitsy

Sadly #wintergames has been cancelled this year. I'm putting out the feelers to see if anyone would be interested in a hygge, nature inspired winter challenge. It would run from 1st - 21st December, ending on the solstice. Who knows, if there is interest I may do a summer solstice one too.
Please comment below and I'll start brainstorming over the weekend. It would be called #Midwintersolace

AllDebooks @Clwojick @StayCurious would you both be ok with me setting up this event? It would only be a gentle challenge, nothing at all like your scarathalon/wintergames events. I don't want to be overs 2y

AllDebooks Overstepping or treading on any toes, as it were. Just looking for something fun to do in the run up to the holidays. 2y

BookmarkTavern This sounds like a lovely idea! 💙 2y

AnnR I might be interested. Would it be possible for you to give a few more details? Does it involve reading, or posting nature photos, or????

AllDebooks @AmandaBlaze the post I saw earlier today https://litsy.com/p/YVZkckowU3VT 2y

AllDebooks @Ann_Reads I'll get back to you tomorrow with more certain ideas. It would be something very gentle and fun. Extremely busy time of year, so was thinking of self care, comfort, hygge, nature inspired theme 2y

AllDebooks @ozma.of.oz Thank you, hopefully it takes off 😊 2y

AmandaBlaze @AllDebooks Thanks, I finally found it. Yes, I would be interested, especially if there are word searches. Don't know why I like finding words in a book, but I do. lol 2y

AnnR @AllDebooks Oh, that sounds nice! I'll look forward to your post. I was envisioning a nature scavenger hunt or something, which would be incredibly fun but I probably wouldn't follow through with doing that in December. 2y

SamAnne This is a wonderful idea. I‘m in. 2y

TheBookHippie In!!! 2y

Clwojick @AllDebooks Of course we‘d be okay with it, and it looks like you have some interest already which is great! I always say the more reading events the better, so there‘s something for everyone. ❤️ Enjoy! 2y

Catsandbooks I'm interested! 2y

Nelnjali I'm interested:) 2y

The Nature of Winter | Jim Crumley

So excited to have been tagged to do this!!! (Thanks so much, Santhi @BookishMe 😊🙏😊)

1. Keeper turned donator. We recently moved to temporary housing for my new job and I donated almost 300 books in the process.

2. Shortest timeframe for a novel (of late): 2 days. Longest ... 2 years.

3. Tagged. Expected something extolling the beauty of winter; this seemed more concerned with convincing me it no longer exists. A tough sell in -30C weather.

TReads I'd like to tag @ImperfectCJ, @MySharonaK, @rather_be_reading & @Buchbeeg 🎉🎉🎉 And a big thanks to @Eggs for hosting!!! #wondrouswednesday (edited) 5y

Eggs Thanks so much for joining in 🌺📚🤗👏🏻💗 5y

ImperfectCJ Moving is a huge reason for my book donation habit. 5y

TReads @Crazeedi Thanks so much, Diane!!! ☺️☺️☺️ 5y

TReads @BookishMe Thanks, Santhi. ☺️ It wasn't easy to give them up, but my new job is in a library, so I figured if I really want to read them, I can always borrow them from work. 📚📚📚 5y

TReads @ImperfectCJ Carting them from one province to another and back again really put things in perspective for me this time. I also finally admitted to myself that I'm not a big re-reader, so the only ones I kept were either unread or meaningful gifts from important people In my life. 😊📚😊 5y

TReads @Eggs Thank you, Sherri! I'm so happy to be a part of this wondrously welcoming community. 🎉❤️🎉 5y

Eggs @TReads We‘re so happy to have you! 5y

BookishMe @TReads Dream workplace!! 😍😍 5y

TReads @BookishMe It's my first full-time children's programming position, so it's been quite the learning curve, but I feel like it's something I could commit to for the long haul! ❤️📚❤️ 5y

BookishMe @TReads all the very best! 👍🏽👍🏽 5y
