Great. Thanks for your help!

Welcome to Story Embers, @esjohnson! I enjoy reading historical fiction; I feel that its one of the most effective and personal ways to have history stick in your mind. I liked reading the American Girl series in elementary–Kit was my favorite– and have read more recently Gloria Whelan’s books. Besides the Bible, do you have other sources you…[Read more]

I’m an ESTJ. When I took the test about a week ago, I was surprised at how totally me the description was! I love managing and organizing things. I used to think I was an introvert, but I’m probably an ambivert. Which famous people correspond to your personality types? I have Megyn Kelly, Andrew Jackson, and Daisy Ridley <3 (yay Star Wars!!)

Thanks, @scribbles! That makes sense.

@claire Yes! I also enjoyed the more comedic “Wayside Stories from Wayside School” series. There are so many Easter eggs in that series…

Thanks for the advice, @mariposa!

Thank you for your help, @josiah! I appreciate your response 😃

@claire Yes, the Bible is probably my top pick, too. Second would be Louis Sachar’s books (Holes,etc.) because they have taught me that everyone deserves reconsideration and a second chance. Unfortunately, I read “The Help” in middle school, and I was so shocked by it that I stopped reading. 😕

@nuetrobolt Yes, Alex is great: Who else would compare snow to ” dandruff falling from the sky”?

@scribbles Thanks for the welcome! I have learned Russian in school for a while so I’m fairly fluent. Listening and reading the language is much easier than speaking it; though 😃

Welcome, @claire! Glad to see another fresh, new member of Story Embers 🙂 What is the most influential novel you have read? ;

@mariposa– That’s awesome! Aberdeen’s first post was so good I could gobble it up. Can’t wait to hear more from the best Authorosaurus in the world!

@nuetrobolt– Snow Day is a hilarious episode.

Alex Jefferson: Come on men! Are we warriors, or are we wimps?!

Everyone: We are wimps, sir!

@theswordinthebook I go by “Anna Marie”. Tell your sister she has a pretty name ;D

@evelyn The walks through the woods sound so relaxing! Outdoors is one of the best places to think. This summer I get to go to my first summer camp (yaaaay!!) in Colorado called iGovern. It’s a week-long camp (primarily for homeschoolers) where you get to learn about US government by being part of a simulated Congress and presidential election.

Sorry, meant to tag@theswordinthebook in the post above!

@ Yeah, until I get a car a ride on, a lawnmower’s all I’ve got =) Is your sister’s middle name “Marie” or is her whole first name “Anna Marie”? I got my name from my Mom’s grandma.
