Welcome to My Blog

Welcome to My Book Blog!

Thanks for visiting my blog! My name is Phebe and I am an avid reader of books. I have a lot of questions running in my head at times; and usually, to get an answer, I reach for a book... or two. I have books and magazines (the useful kind) in my bedroom, bathroom, living room, kitchen and home office. My personal wish is to someday have a personal library with a bookshelf that spans a whole wall (or two) from floor to ceiling.


The reason I decided to start this blog is because I want to share the many good books that I read. Also, let me add (while it's on my mind) that most of the books I read are non-fiction. I'm an artist, so basically I don't really need the "entertainment" books; I am quite capable of imagining my own stories (if I must). Most of the books I read are self-help books- that is, they cover topics on the areas of my life where I need assistance. Don't misunderstand, I am not a mental case (Lol!). The self-help books I'm talking about are books that help me in personal areas, such as arts & crafts, Christian ministry and lifestyle, computers and technology, business (at-home), health & beauty and whatever else will make my life a little easier.


So, take the time to visit my blog often, to see what books I'm reading and/or recommending.


Happy Reading!

How to Avoid Making Art

If you have sense of humor, the book, How to Avoid Making Artis the one for you. Author, Julia Cameron, will provoke you to stop making all those excuses and START MAKING ART. 

This book really made me laugh. Julia used humor and sarcasm (note the title of the book) to make her points. And to add to that, the book is illustrated with cartoons to make it even funnier.

Especially, if you're an artist struggling to "get in the mood," this book lift your spirits, make you laugh (for a change). and most of all motivate you to be creative.
