In honor of this crazy landmark, I wanted to share an essay from that mystery blogger, Bookseller Chick. In a few short paragraphs, she reminded me why I read (and, therefore, why I write this blog in the first place).
I hope you enjoy it, and then, I hope it inspires you to write something yourself. Most of all, I hope to see you at the 1001-st post.
Listen to Bookseller Chick...
"Using old sheets and the clothing line, we created tents. My backyard became a desert and we were explorers moving from oasis to oasis searching for buried treasure. The pits left from where my father dug up trees to ship became an obstacle course we had to transverse as the howls from the greyhound farm next to us spurred us on.
....
"We were invincible, capable of being anyone and doing anything, and each incarnation of our world, each character we played was the result of something gleaned from a book."







Keep it up, Jason. You're a fantastic writer!
