My Hobbies—When I’m Not WritingÂ
- Welcome back to the #MFRW 52-Week Blog Challenge! Notice how this week’s topic specifically mentioned hobbies besides writing. I assume that’s to avoid hopping around to all these blogs and reading the same thing over and over again as a favorite hobby—writing.Â
Never Fear! Writers are often introverts, but it takes a plethora of interests to craft these characters!Â
Well, if you’re going to get all particular about hobbies, I can name a few of mine outside of writing stuff. Really…I can. Just give me a minute to step away from my computer.
Things Normal People Consider a Hobby
- Bicycling
- Walking (I mean intentional, or at scenic places, not just to live or get to my destination)
- Backseat biker babe
- Movies- I love watching movies!
- Dancing- in the club, at home, wherever there’s a good tune
- Going to Concerts- love me some music!Â
- Hockey games- Love me some Penguins
- Reading- of course! Didn’t say I couldn’t mention that!
Things that Kinda Are Hobbies, But Not Really
- Â Honing my sarcasmÂ
- Collecting Quotes
- ProcrastinationÂ
- Caffeine ConsumptionÂ
- Staring into Space (Plotting)
- People Watching (Character Development)
- Pulling my Back
- Starting a Diet
- Forgetting I’m on a Diet
- Telling stories to my kids that start with “Back in the Day”
- Laundry—cause really, does it ever end?Â

You have a great list to fun things to do when there’s time….:)
Thanks Patricia! So glad you stopped by.
I agree with you on the procrastination! I try to make it an art form. LOL Wine consumption is becoming a new hobby. My characters driving me to drink, not sure that’s a good thing.
Thanks for visiting, Meka. I think wine is a wonderful hobby- even if we are at home, it’s still wine tasting, right 🙂
Scruff is adorable! I have my own version of Scruff who helps me write and makes sure dinner is served!
Thank you- he knows it too, lol. Dinner is high priority for our furry family 🙂 Thanks for visiting.
Great post! Well written. I’m just too darned serious.
Lol, thanks Caroline. I struggle with the serious part most times, lol.
Love your list of hobbies. I identify with the procrastination. Scruff is adorable!
