Shelf Love

I've decided to come up with a few ways for people who love to write, like me, to continue writing over the summer just for fun and stop writing Without You because I am not going to have enough time to finish it. If you love writing, then here are a few ways to keep busy this summer.   Travel Journal https://www.amazon.com/Travel-Journal-perfect-travel-companion/dp/1481963686 1. Even if you don't travel to any exotic places like Bora Bora or Paris, it is still fun to write about your vacations. Personally, I don't travel very much; I go to Wildwood every summer and that is pretty much it, but I still love using one because I want to remember every second of it. The best way to remember everything is by writing it down. This way when it is twenty degrees below zero and your sitting on your couch wrapped in a blanket drinking hot cocoa, you can read this journal and hopefully be warmed by the thoughts of the sun burning your body and the waves crashing against...

Last year, I never could have seen myself surfing especially in Hawaii, but she pushed me to do it beca use she kn ew how much I would love it. She was right. It felt like I was on top of the world for the two seconds I was able to stay on my feet. I heard her cheering me on, laughing at me all the way until I smacked the water.
