Favorite 5’s: a list post

I’ve come up with a schedule for my posts. There may be weeks I mix it up if there is a holiday or something else to share, or a collaborative theme with Liz like we did with the poetry month posts, but this is what you can generally expect.

• First Thursday: Writing Life
• Second Thursday: Gaming (talk about story based board and video games)
• Third Thursday: Find Your Bliss
• Fourth Thursday: Personal Book Review

That leaves an occasional Fifth Thursday (like this one!) where I will do something fun or maybe throw in a guest post. For this week, I thought a list post would be fun. Top 5 ____. I came up with way too many categories, though, so I’m just sharing highlights. You can read my full list (26 categories!) here.
​And I have a blank template you can copy and fill out yourself! Feel free to add or remove categories. I’m sure most of you wouldn’t have so many gaming categories, but you might have a sports category or something else instead. I’d love to see your answers.
