'Bout this Blogger

Hey so this is a Saturday Night Special! Just for you! I'm sure you're thrilled. 
Anyways... Victoria Grace Howell (shout out to Stori Tori!) brought to my attention via Google + this thing called 'Bout this Blogger from the blog Paper Fury (previously known as Notebook Sisters) that I want to do. So she gives all these bloggers that want to participate 10 questions to answer and so I was like sure! This looks fun. How hard can it be. Well let's see. 

1. Question number one! Why did you start blogging?
 I've always kind of like blogs and I thought they were really cool. Plus they seemed like a lot of fun so I was like why not give it a go? And now here I am and here you are reading me ramble.
P.S. I read most of her questions before hand and I feel awful because some of my answers are going to be more boring than others. But please! Stay with me! I'm not as boring as you think. 
And with that pitiful plea onto the next question: 
2. What is the story behind my blogs name?
Well so me and my mom were trying to come up with a good blog names and she was like why not Melody's Musings. For some odd reason I thought it sounded kinda funny so I said sure and we just rolled with it. 
3. How many designs have you been through since you started blogging?
Ummm... Including this one? Officially one design. Yep this is one of the boring answers. But I have only had this blog for like a year now so I'm sure I'll start branching out on designs sooner or later. 
4. Have you ever switched blog platforms? What made you move? If you haven't ever changed... why?
Ok umm... Well I'm assuming that blog platforms means what I write about on my blog. And if that's the case then yes I have... kind of. At first I was only going to blog book reviews but then I got more confidant and branched out to many different topics. 
5. How long does it take for you to write a post? What is your postly process like?
First of all I laughed at the phrase postly process because I have a weird sense of humor and found it funny. Anywho it takes me from a few minutes to like 20 minutes and I usually get all of my posts done over the were ken so that I have everything all ready for the weekend. 
6. Have you ever been super nervous about a post? Why?! What was it?
I would have to say probably my first post (Welcome)... 
My first book review (Breadcrumbs by Anne Ursa) and the book review on When God Writes Your Love Story. 
7. Do you have a blogging schedule?
Yup. Every day of the week except for on Saturdays and Sundays. (Tonight is of course an exception.) 
8. Do you tell people In-Real-Life about your blog? Their reaction?
Actually... I love to text and so I've like "text told" people that I have a blog and they've all been very nice and supportive. 
9. Top ten blogs you read/comment on the most. Go! Go! 
4. Stori Tori 
8. Shannon Messenger Blog (where I like to explore.) 
10. Paper Fury 
10. If you could change/improve about your blog, what would they be?
Ummm... My URL and getting my posts on at the same time... 

So, you survived ten questions! Awesome! Great job! 
Now for a question or two. Do you have a blog? If you do what's it like? What are your favorite blogs? (Ok I lied it was three questions.)

    Eep! Thanks for doing my tag and helping me spread the word!

    Hehe, I'm glad you found #5 funny. ;-) I have a weird sense of humour too, obviously, and let's not ask if postly is a word or not. xD 20 mins is super fast! I get my reviews down in a jiffy, but I spend hoooours perfecting the formatting and finding gifs and such. :))

    Aw. Thanks for the mention. ^ ^ Your answers totally weren't boring. I need to adopt your method of getting all of your posts ready for the week at one time. XD I can get the posts up on the same day, but at the right time is tough for me. Scheduling is my best friend lol. I've really enjoyed your blog! Keep up the good work!

These movies were a disgrace to the books buuut I needed a gif so here you go haha How is this even a question? ;) Camp Halfblood of course!

How to Revise like a Pantser ft. Big Hero 6 Gifs

Happy Wednesday everyone! I hope you've had a great week so far and that you have a great Easter weekend ahead! We plan on going to my grandparent's on Friday to celebrate Easter with family and spending the night there so that'll be a fun time. :) Alright, so I contemplated doing an Easter-y post on here but I wasn't even sure what that would look like... So instead, I thought I'd do something fun and happy in honor of the celebration of Easter on Sunday. Without further ado, here is your Big Hero 6 gif filled revising process from a real life pantser: The end of your first draft is in sight! You type like crazy, stay up past your normal bedtime until it is finished. When you type The End, the satisfaction that you actually did this thing sets in. Guys, it is the sweetest feeling ever. Knowing you worked so hard to complete this draft and came out on the other side. Unscathed? Perhaps not. But triumphant? Definitely! That first draft is a total disast...

Best Resources for Writers

Happy Wednesday once more everyone! So recently I've been doing a lot of craft-learning and have discovered some pretty awesome resources that have been so helpful to me. I'm also contemplating trying my hand at a How To guide for writers. I've already written a How to Write a Serial book and it just needs to be touched up. I think I might make it one of my freebies for my newsletter. So then not only do you get a short story but also a how to guide cuz I realized a lot of the newsletters I sign up for come with how to guides or writerly resources. But anyways, here are some of my favorite books/podcasts/blogs that have been so, so helpful to me over the past few months: Craft Books: Go Teen Writers: Edit Your Novel by Stephanie Morril and Jill Williamson: This one has a little bit of everything in it and is perfect for beginners. If you've just started plotting your novel, are in the middle of writing it or have begun the editing process this is a must have!  ...
