Recently I talked a bit about living LELA (Life, Education, Literacy, and Arts).
Today I’m exploring literacy.
I’m always in the middle of reading and writing something. Or more accurately, several somethings. So I’ll just focus on one thing today – reading.
I’ve been reading The Only Woman in the Room by Marie Benedict for about a month now. I’m enjoying it. It’s very interesting.
Sidebar – I stopped writing to look up a link to the book. I was having a difficult time trying to figure out how to describe the book by saying something more descriptive than “It’s about Heddy Lamar,” so I was either looking for inspiration or a link to share with you. I noticed in some sites the author was listed as Heather Terrell, not Marie Benedict, so I did some investigating.
Marie Benedict is a pen name for Heather Terrell. I had no idea, so I’m excited to learn this. I’ve previously read and enjoyed a book by Marie Benedict, which was a contributing factor in picking up this book. Now I have two author names to keep in mind as I find books to read.
And while I have learned more about the author, I still don’t have a better way to describe the novel than by saying, “It’s about Heddy Lamar.”
So what about you? What are you reading and writing today?
To commit yourself to reading and/or wtiting today, like this post.
