I decided to start a blog.....


Hello everyone! As you can see, Nathan R. Petrie is starting to rub off on me >_> (=P) Not only am I writing a book as he also is, but now I've got a blog.
Okay, enough about that. I decided to name my blog because
(1. As a Christian, I'm in a way "Taking the road less traveled."
(2. I really like that saying.
(3. It's an awesome George Strait song.

What you can expect from my blog is a healthy dose of Christianity, 1 cup of seriousness, a smidgen of randomness, and a whole lot of my crazy self.
I plan on posting book reviews, updates on my stories, my opinions on things, and a ton of other stuff that you'll just have to wait and see what they are. Wouldn't want to spoil the surprise. MWHAHAHA!!! =P

This post is sort of like the "Kickoff". Hmm.. now I have to think of something to say to keep you entertained and reading...
I'm currently reading Inkspell by Cornelia Funke, which has been pretty good so far. I just finished Wagered Heart by Hatcher and Inkheart also by Funke. I read the first eight pages of War and Peace by Leo Tolstoy before I became completely and utterly bored. Sad, I know. I can read Lord of the Rings Fellowship of the Ring in about two weeks but I couldn't even get past the first chapter of War and Peace.
I'll be posting a review for Wagered Heart and Inkheart soon hopefully.

Some books on my Christmas list this year are The Victor by Giron and The Forgotten 3 by a relative of mine, Elizabeth (better known as Bessie) Harms. I can't wait to read both of them as I'm sure they are both wonderful.

It's funny, the weather here is almost perfect for the first of December. It was cold and a few flakes came drifting down from the gray sky. Kind of dismal in a way.

Huh, there's my randomness for ya. Go from talking about books to the weather.

Well, that's about all I have to say for now. Check here soon for more posts!

God Bless,
Brenna Dixon

  1. I can't wait for more post Brenna. Hey here is a good book for you, if you like murder mysteries, it is called THE PERFECT SHOT by Elaine Marie Alphin, so far I think it is pretty good. I will talk to you as soon as I can when you post another post, HAHA!
    God Bless,

  3. Nathan:
    I haven't read those yet, but since I'm your "fan" I've been meaning to look them up sometime. ::laughs:: They sound interesting, and if I do read them I will be sure to join your tribe. ;)

    Alinar means "New Hope" in the story. I'm kind of having writer's block on it at the moment >_<
    There's a bunch of it posted on the DIOM forum though, if you ever get on there and have a chance to look at it.
