G’day, everyone!!!
Today I’ve been nominated for the Brainstorms Award! This is a new award created by the fabulous blogger Nabeeha Jameel who runs the blog Brainstorms of which this new award is named after.
https://brainsstorms.wordpress.com/2020/06/02/introducing-the-brainstorms-award/
Thanks Nabeeha!
Check her out – she’s a great blogger!
What is this award about?
This award is basically for all those bloggers out there, new, or old, who do a lot of work to keep their blogs alive and an interest for other people! π
Basically, if you are interested in this award, all you have to do is go to the post of hers I linked above where I got my nomination and in the comment section give the link to your blog and talk about what your blog is about and such. And she doesn’t ask everyone the same questions – for each one she responds to giving them the questions she gives them all unique and different questions! So go on over and have fun!
Now for the rules!
THE RULES:
- Thank the one who nominated you
- Tag your post with #BrainStormsAward and follow BrainStorms if you are willing!
- Display the BrainStorms Award logo.
- Talk a bit about your blog, why you started it, what you write on and your goal for your blog.
- Answer the five questions you have been asked
- Nominate five other amazing bloggers
- Ask them five new questions
So, my blog is called Racheal’s Novels and I started it because I really wanted to share my stories that I wrote with the world, but no traditional publisher would take me on, so upon my dad’s suggestion, I joined WordPress and started my blog to write my stories! Of course, later on I found out I could self-publish for free on Kindle and have done and am working on another story to be published on Kindle as well, but I still write stories on here.
As well as novels, I also write short stories and one-shots and the occasional fanfic on here and poetry as well as sometimes posting videos of me singing (which is a topic I shall avoid, hehe).
My goal for my blog is simply to write and be able to share my stories that I may or may not end up publishing in book form with you guys. That’s all I want.
THE QUESTIONS:
1. What would be your perfect day?
Hmm…actually, this one I wanna keep a secret right now.
2.Where do you hope to be in five years from now?
Hopefully my books – such as the Zion trilogy – have been made into movies, I will have a boyfriend and…I dunno, actually. I’ve got some stuff that I hope has all been sorted out, or at least I’ve reached a stable middle ground on.
I hope to be in a very good place, basically.
3. Your favourite novel?
Of mine that I’ve published? Zion: War of Thrones.
Of ones that I’ve simply read? That would be a hard choice – probably one of the SIGMA Force novels written by James Rollins or A Curse So Dark and Lonely by Brigid Kemmerer.
4. When have you felt the most proud?
When I published the first book in the Zion trilogy – ZionΒ – and also when I publish something on here, whether it’s simply a chapter in a story, a one-shot or what, and I get a very strongly positive reaction. Basically it’s audience-wise highly acclaimed.
And when I do something in general right.
5. What do you love about WordPress?
You guys. The readers I get, the support, the friends – you guys are what I love about WordPress, not going to lie π
MY NOMINEES:
QUESTIONS FOR MY NOMINEES:
- What is your greatest achievement so far?

A secret… huh….
I can totally echo your last answer!
Thanks for the nomination!
Being a drink…. wow!
Thanks!
Yes, I’m not saying a word about it to anyone right now π May someday, though.
Cool!
You’re welcome!
LOL! It’s a question I once got and always thought it super neat.
Oh come on!!!!!!!! Please……
Sorry, not saying a word right now. Wanna tell you, though.
Why not??????????
It’s one of those things that are so good you kinda wanna keep it to yourself.
I will tell you, promise. Just not quite yet
OK.
So, how are you?
Alive. About to go to bed. You?
I’m sick. Got a sore throat and a blocked nose and a nasty cough.
Ooooh I’m so sorry. When did that all start?
Thanks. It ain’t fun.
Yesterday arvo (arvo meaning afternoon)
Ugh. I hope you get over it quickly.
Same here!
Congratulations π π π π
So you published a book? Great! What’s it called?
Thanks!
I’ve published more than one actually. I’ve published a trilogy – the books in the trilogy are Zion, Zion: The Rebellion, and Zion: War of Thrones.
The other books I’ve published are a poetry collection called My Cracks And Crevices: A Collection of Poetry and then there were a couple books that were collections of short stories.
Cool!
Best of luck with all future stories! β€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ
