When was the last time you went somewhere without reading material? A little something in your purse or bag in case you’re stuck in line, which we have many these days. All standing 6 feet apart for social distancing in my state. But that’s another subject. Even if you’re a knitter—a fine endeavor indeed—there are times when a person simply needs to read. Do you know what I mean?
Recently, I made a ghastly mistake and set off with my husband in the car without reading material. He stopped at a store and I sat in the car lamenting over the fact that I had forgotten something to read! When will I learn? At least I had a notebook in my bag so I could jot down ideas for future books or this blog post.
I find reading soothing, the perfect pastime before bed. I can’t remember taking a trip without a book. Yes, I know, I should break down and get a Kindle, but I haven’t yet. I have the app on my iPad but I continue to seek solace in paper. Maybe, as an author, I spend so much time staring into a screen, that I need to give my eyes a rest. So I have been told by an ophthalmologist.
Good news: I hear reading 30 minutes a day elevates your intelligence and can improve your life in many ways!

What a great giveaway. Love a good book !
I like to take a book along or keep one in the glove compartment to read if he ducks into a restaurant or store if it is raining or too crowded. I have trouble walking. (I envy your walks you take, I used to walk 4 miles a day when I could walk). It was good to finally get sound on my new computer to hear you talk last week. It is like having company over to visit.
Thank you for the chance to win this awesome prize

Such a lovely giveaway Kate! That tote bag is so adorable 🙂
I never go anywhere without a book, often reading a Kindle book on my phone if I’m waiting somewhere for a few minutes. I take my Kindle with me to Dr’s appointments or an oil change appointment or something like that where I’ll be sitting longer. I still prefer paperbacks even though a Kindle is more convenient in a lot of cases 🙂 Can’t beat holding the real thing in your hands!
Thank you for the chance to win!
I always take a book along with me, wherever I go. That is one good thing about having a kindle – so easy to slip into the purse. What a great giveaway!
Hi Kate…hope your doing well. I haven’t been getting your emails but I got this one 🙂 Take care.
What an awesome giveaway! Thank you for the chance.
I always either have my kindle or a book in my purse all the time. Great giveaway.
Thank you so much for this wonderful giveaway!!!!
Bring my Kindle with me every w here I go, unless I’m going to someone’s house for dinner or party where I wouldn’t read . Everywhere else I bring it. I don’t drive, so I take the bus. I’ll read on the bus, doctors visits, which is frequent and grocery shopping, tho this year I order what I can on line to be delivered. Otherwise, I do without. I’m at great risk to go anywhere but doctors visits and tests this year.
I loved your remark about taking something with you!!! My middle daughter ‘s requirement for a purse size is that a book must fit in it!
Oh gosh yes I always have a book or magazine in my purse when I go out. I even have a Reader’s Digest book in a zip lock bag under the car seat, in case I forget, or I get stuck in a situation and need a book . It is usually an Amish Fiction book. Thank you for this opportunity to win a nice prize.
Love your books Kate. Thank you for a chance to win some awesome prizes
