The online video game Line Play has me obsessed this month. My player code is JN68518106 so add me to friends. I just got my first riding pet so I need challengers for the races. I still play my other top loved games like Avakin Life, Lord of the Rings online, and World of Warcraft, but Line Play has an online journal that reminds me of the old school Live-journal level of activity.

Episode 10 of Season 5 – The Witching Hour by Anne Rice
*Note this is a double post due to a new posting schedule.
Promo: The Book Review Podcast by Andrea Menzies called Frozen History Seven Book Review Podcast has moved to https://frozenhistory7publishing.wordpress.com at 8 P.M. on Tuesdays. Checkout the new reviews weekly!
Episode 10 of Season 5 was posted over a year after the 9th one due to a fire. I was in an apartment I have moved away from due to fire damage eating my old podcast equipment. The old elaborate and complex podcast I streamed heavily was largely a side effect of extreme pandemic boredom. Like many people sitting at home being isolated I wanted more human interaction, and talking about books was a fun way to start it off. I streamed it on many pages with over 5000 followers each on 4 service providers including Facebook and YouTube. However, I am now re-employed full time, and I do NOT have as much time to read, and video stream detailed interviews and reviews. Plus viewers and reader have no time for long reviews, and so I can not get the huge streaming crowds of the pandemic era so shorter things work better all around.
I have finally admitted the new format forever needs to be short podcast-blog hybrid posts. Podcasts promos will be on Podbean and YouTube with other services for advertisement. The blog at the address http:www.frozenhistory7publishing.wordpress.com will have the ONLY reviews for books. When it comes to Internet URLs “In the end there can be only one.” It is like the Highlander movie. These blogs will be short with a few sentences of praise for the things I like, and that is it. I have way too much job-work to do these days, and so now it is short and sweet for posts on this blog.
I have chosen WordPress because you can load up many pre-scheduled post in a row. Keeping a posting schedule online is easier there, and so Tuesday 8 PM will be the new post-time. (This post however will be pre-posted online to kick off the new schedule quickly.)
*Start of Review*
The first book that has re-started my book praise kick is Anne Rice The Witching Hour as it is a great book I highly recommend. Not all books from the National Bestseller list or the Main Selection of the Book of the Month club are G rated, and this book is for older readers as it is R rated. This book is created by a female writer that is VERY homesick for New Orleans and the Garden District there. It is filled with vivid imagery of jasmine and roses in poetic gloom. The TV channel AMC is making the book series of the Witching Hour into a TV series starting January 8, 2023 at 8 P.M. The fact that this book reenactment is right up the ally of my old book review podcast, and almost passed without comment on my podcast made the podcast gain new life. I first read this book as a teenager girl, and moved to New Orleans after reading these books. The series seems completely changed after I really lived next to and in the New Orleans Garden District for years as I went to Loyola University in New Orleans and graduated with my first University Degree there. Truth is stranger than fiction in New Orleans. I listen to the famous song “Do You Know What It Means to Miss New Orleans” by Louis Armstrong sometime and remember how homesick I was when I left. This book is written in the thrall of that emotion.
I highly recommend this book and show, and the revival of reading and book love this show represents. Book, movie, and TV show tie-ins were heavily a focus of my old podcast, and are part of the new format today.
That is all I have time for today. Thank for reading, and hit like, subscribe, and leave comments as much as you can today.
Not only is The Mayfair Witches on AMC cable, but it has a great podcast you can follow on Spotify or Podbean by the same name. The Mayfair Witches is sentimental to me as the story takes place in the same area I went to University in for 4 years and graduated from at Loyola University New Orleans. It brings back so many memories!
Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches is now on at Sunday January 8, 2023. The Anne Rice book “The Witching Hour” I am rereading is the first book in the series it is based upon. I have a screen shot on my phone of the original time in January it was scheduled for, and the time has now changed.
I am very sentimental about this book as it is set in New Orleans and I got my 4 year University degree at Loyola University in New Orleans.
I do have some fitness resolutions for the New Year. They are to step-up the best working things I found in 2013 to 2018, and now need to resume on 2023. I am the ONE person who wears a Fitbit in the house, and am going to do 4 or more ten thousand step days per week. I will use my Planet Fitness membership for 3 or more check-in days per week. I will be logging my diet and fitness on the app MyFitnessPal under username Poedaughter7 weekly. Also I will resume using Alli FDA approved diet supplements after work, and Alli lost me ten pounds in 2018. I quit them in the chaos of 2022, but my resolutions are BACK for 2023! These are the methods I got 15 pounds of weight loss from in 2018, and I recommend them highly.
My New Years resolution has nothing to do with gyms. I want to find a boyfriend who sticks around longer than the one month the last few dumped me on this year. I am really sick of being single. Yet if things work out well there could be some great physical aspects, and it may end up being a workout after all. Just because bad things happened in the past doesn’t mean I have NO hope for a better future. Nothing depresses me and reminds me more of just how single I am than the way I had a New Year’s kiss EVERY year of my twenties in Austin and New Orleans and NONE for this year in the dumpster fire of Virginia.
People need to stop trash-talking RVs and Tiny Homes for being capable of storm damage. Every car, truck, or van can also be damaged in tornadoes and other storms, and I don’t see dealerships for cars going broke. Even brick houses have to evacuate in some storms. The easiest way to evacuate on Earth is to already be packed in an RV.
It’s as if TV news stations have home builders as sponsors, and have station managers who own house property all over town. The news coverage may be a bit skewed to large house production, sales, and promotion.
I respect and support equally all the holidays, and the many paths to Faith. Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas to all the people out there. My relatives Anne, Alexandria, and I had a Christmas party with gifts and pumpkin pie today. Many of my family’s gifts said happy Yule and Hanukkah as well. Thanks to all my friends and family for the great gifts I respect and thank you all!
