About Me
My name is Beth, but my closest friends call me “Bethie”, and many of them have encouraged me to start writing a blog. So here I am! I’m sure you’ve noticed my photo and wondered why I’m sitting on my bed covered with an Indian print blanket. For the better part of 2014, I have been recovering from two surgeries and subsequent bone infections. I was born with spina bifida and live my life from a wheelchair. I love to read and I love to write so what you’ll find here are my writings, musings, reviews of books I’ve read, and beginning sometime in early 2015, join me on my adventure into writing my first book.

My favorite memory of being read to is by my father when I was very young, probably around 6 or 7 years of age. I believe the first book he read to me was “The Wizard of Oz”. Being an only child of a Naval Officer, I didn’t have my dad around a lot when I was young, so the times that we had “daddy-daughter” time were extra special.

My mum tells a story about my dad reading me bedtime stories when I was very young (I don’t actually remember this myself – was too young) and how he would get nearly to the end, and I would be nearly asleep, and then he would ad lib the end of the story and would be wide awake again saying, “no dad, that’s not right!”
