A is for Anneli

50 Comments

I thought I would attempt a project that would take me to Christmas. The plan is to focus on the letters of the alphabet in their natural sequence and blab on about something that begins with that letter each day.

I hope the posts won’t be very long, since it means a post every day, and my usual policy is not to post more than once a week, twice at the most. There are too many posts to follow if we all posted every day, so I ask your indulgence for 26 days, once for each letter of the alphabet.

Starting with A, I will introduce myself after about thirteen or so years of blogging.  My name is Anneli, and for those of you who struggle with the pronunciation, it rhymes with Emily.

I’m all about taking care of my best dog, Emma, an English field cocker spaniel who thinks she is human.

Second to that priority, my passions are writing, copy editing, cooking, and taking care of the little birds and animals that live around me.

My novels are pictured on the sidebar of the blog, in case you are interested in checking them out.

My main philosophy in life is to try to do good things to make the world a better place, be creative if possible, and do no harm to others.

So there you are, your letter for today:

A is for Anneli.

    Oh now I realize I pronounced your name Annéli, but it should be Ánneli. Great introduction. Emma is adorable.

    So glad I read this post Anneli, you comment on my blog more than anyone else and I often fail to reciprocate due to the busyness of life – I moved house again this week!
    Hopefully more settled now but I don’t think I’d be up for 26 days straight of posting just yet.. good luck, I’ll do my best to follow along 😀

    Like a Blogvent calendar Anneli. That’s a great idea. Good to see Emma. Who could argue with her that she is not human. Happy Sunday. Allan

    A perfect gift to your followers, Anneli. Emma is so well loved by you and the family. She is Queen of belly rubs and treats! Huge hugs are on the way from Ellie and Auntie Dawn.

    This is a great creative goal Anneli! I love having projects like this. I once made wall plaques for all my grandchildren with their names spelled out in photographs of objects resembling letters found in nature, like the full moon for an ‘O’. Looking forward to what you come up with! Juanita

    Beautiful idea Anneli. And a brave one. Knowing you and much of your work I think you’re one of the few who have the writing ability – and the personal depth – to carry it through and contribute something to others’ lives.

    I love this, Anneli. Wait… it’s pronounced ANN-e-li to rhyme with Emily, right? I have always said An-ELL-i, so thank you for that! I will do my best to keep up with your wonderful alphabet posts.

      If it weren’t such a selfish idea, I would do posts of Emma every day. She is such a lovely dog. But it would be like people showing guests their photo albums of the children, so I have to move on to other things.
