April #IWSG: Country Roads, City Girl

  



Let’s rock the neurotic writing world!
Our Twitter handle is @TheIWSG and hashtag is #IWSG.
 
The awesome co-hosts for the April 3 posting of the IWSG are Janet Alcorn, T. Powell Coltrin, Natalie Aguirre, and Pat Garcia!

Every month, we announce a question that members can answer in their IWSG post. These questions may prompt you to share advice, insight, a personal experience or story. Include your answer to the question in your IWSG post or let it inspire your post if you are struggling with something to say. 

Remember, the question is optional
 
April 3 question - How long have you been blogging? (Or on Facebook/Twitter/Instagram?) What do you like about it and how has it changed?



Blogging for me started many years ago. It's been a looooong journey, because I'd rather be writing actual content for my books. Of all the social media outlets, I enjoy Instagram the most. Insta-stories are my thing rather than actual posts. Photos inspire me. What can I say? It's a much quicker way of communicating. I don't have the time to read lengthy blog posts. No offense if that's you. 

My life is crazy busy. As a property manager, I never know what to expect in any given day. For instance, meet Sherlock, the softest, most gentle baby cat in the world. One of my tenants couldn't keep him, so she offered him to me, because she knew I adored Sherlock, and she knew we recently moved into the country. 


Yes, he's wearing a sweater. I didn't know a cat could be this sweet! He's about six months old and loves to go for walks. This city girl is adapting well to country life.

I hope your spring finds you writing, editing, reading, or scrolling through Instagram for your daily inspiration.




I never thought I'd enjoy the country life this much. Here are a couple of friends I found today in a field. When I hopped out of my vehicle, they were very polite and posed for me.

  1. Hi Jennifer, I too started blogging a long time back, but sadly last year I took a blogging break.

  2. Sherlock is cute. How could you refuse?
    I don't blog as often but it's still my favorite platform.

  3. Gotta love animal pictures. I scroll through instagram, but mine is focused on digital artists more than anything.

  6. Sherlock is darling, Jennifer! I'm glad that you are enjoying country life. After growing up in so many tiny and isolated places, I do love living on the edge of a big city. I find photos inspiring too. I've only had one blog post ever without one. All the best to you!
