Thinking we need some Monday smiles, so our writing/reading memes are somewhat on the silly side today. Except for those that aren’t.
Enjoy!

Love how she spends her money.

Yeah, that’s pretty much ME, without the fur coat. (Hey, it’s HOT down here in Florida). But I can so relate to the way the budget goes right out the window when books are the issue. 😀 Glad you liked it, Darnell! 🙂

Thanks, Robbie. Glad you enjoyed them. And yeah, the write’rs block one is me, in a nutshell. Everything I write is what my characters tell me, so without them, I’m pretty much wandering alone in the wilderness. 😯
Thanks for stopping by! 😀 ❤

Aw, that’s great to hear, Mae. I figure on Mondays, we need all the help we can get, right? Though I do like to post some more serious writing memes, too. But lately, I’ve been leaning way over in the direction of “We All Need a Laugh.” 😀

Thanks for these. I find myself going back to the chicken poetry and it’s funnier with each visit! xxx

That one’s probably a bit more subtle, and maybe there are those who don’t remember the “beat generation,” and their coffee house poetry, but I do. And I love it, too. Thanks for letting me know, Trish. Glad it makes you laugh. 😀 ❤

Yep, that’s where it took me! Slender people wearing black polo neck tops and reciting ‘meaningful’ poetry with pauses for emphasis. This is, of course, a shocking generalisation but that’s what I had in my head! ❤ 😀

Since the cartoon was a parody of exactly that, I think you can be forgiven for picturing it. I know that’s just what I imagined, too! 😀

Thanks, and the same to you, Darlene. and yep, I suspect most writers are willing to throw away great wads of cash if we get good books in return. I know I don’t even hesitate. And for me, that’s often DOUBLE money, because most of my books I want IN my physical library, and on my Kindle, too. The Kindle is far easier for me to read on and to take with me everywhere I go, but I seriously NEED to have the actual books on my shelves, as well. Especially if they have cover art I’m in love with. (Don’t tell my husband this!) 😀 ❤

That last one would so be me 🙂 And my TBR pile is so large, I don’t think I need to worry about having abibliophobia any time soon 😀

I’m betting most of us are safe from ever catching abibliophobia, while at the same time being in serious danger of throwing heaps of money into the air in a bookstore. We can’t help it, can we? Must be in our genes. 😀
Thanks for stopping by today, Jeanne. 🙂 ❤

Glad you enjoyed them, Norah. I thought there were a couple of gems there, and I too, liked typoman writing wrongs, and chicken poetry. That one makes me LOL every single time I read it. 🙂 ❤

Glad you got a laugh from them, Harmony. I think all of us can identify with the crazed book buyer. We’ll go without a lot of things to feed our reading habit, for sure! 😀 And thanks for sharing this, too! 🙂 ❤

Glad you enjoyed them, Sally. And I love the chicken one, too. I can just see the little “beat” coffee house, full of smoke and an audience snapping their fingers in appreciation of the chicken’s words. 😀 (Been there, seen that.) 😀 ❤ (Well, except for the chicken part, of course. More like guys with scraggly goatees, wearing ripped t-shirts and jeans.)
