The Real Neat Blog Award

Real Neat Blog Award | Inching Forwards

Hello everyone! I hope you are doing well and getting lots of writing done during quarantine! If you are looking for some writing prompts, be sure to check out this list I made.

Zoe Brown at her website Truly Zoe nominated me for The Real Neat Blog Award! Thank you so much Zoe; I really appreciate the honor! (Be sure to check out her blog!) This is a great project, and I strongly encourage everyone I nominate to take me up on the challenge. 

Rules:

1. Display the blog award logo in your blog.
2. Thank the blogger(s) who nominated you.
3. Do not forget to link to their blogging website.
4. Answer all the questions they have given you.
5. Nominate 7 to 10 bloggers of your choice.
6. Ask them 7 questions.

Zoe’s questions:
1. What book is the most inspiring to you?


Although it is hard to choose, The Book Thief by Markus Zuzak is honestly one of the greatest books I have ever read. It inspired me to think of history from another perspective, and it showcased the value of both color and words in a phenomenal way. My favorite quote from the book (which Zuzak actually used again in I am the Messenger (another great read)) is: "Sometimes people are beautiful. Not in looks. Not in what they say. Just in what they are."

2. What's your favorite season?
As a resident in Texas, I live for the three weeks of spring that occur between winter and summer. 

3. Vanilla, chocolate, or strawberry ice cream?
Chocolate all the way.

4. What song describes your current mood?
Oooh, this is a tough one, but I would probably have to say "Set Fire to the Rain" by Adele. It is a beautiful combination of hope, dedication, and nostalgia, all of which I am feeling as I finish my high-school graduation. 

5. What's the first thing you want to do when you get out of quarantine?
This one is easy! I want to play and practice softball. I have been playing softball for several years now, and I typically play first base. Last year I also played pitcher, but my skills have been slipping during quarantine.  

6. What would your dream house look like?
It would be relatively small and cozy, with just enough room for me and maybe a pet. I don't know of many specifics, but there would definitely be a large library, a modern kitchen, a good dining table, and several comfortable armchairs where I could curl up with a good book and read. 

7. What is your favorite form of art and why? 
While the obvious answer would be to say writing, that's not actually the truth (shocker, I know). I have always admired musicians (especially those who write their own lyrics), because they are often able to entice all manner of emotions in only a few minutes. In a way, though, that makes them writers as well.

My Questions:
1. What is your favorite book and why?
2. If you were any color, which one would you be and why?
3. Do you call it: soda, pop, coke, or some other variation?
4. What is your favorite song, and how often does it change?
5. What is something you have done during quarantine that you might not have done otherwise?
6. What is your dream for the future?
7. (And because I like it so much) What is your favorite form of art and why? (Visual, Writing, Music, etc.)

My Nominees:
1. Thalassa Brytaye
2. Mark Borne
3. Jasper Onyx
4. June Bug
5. Vita
6. Ales
7. And I am nominating anyone else who would like to do it as well!
