On October 28, 2003, I began this blogging gig with a post about Stephen Lawhead’s Patrick. And ever since then, for six years, I’ve been telling everybody who’s remotely interested what I’m reading and what I think about it. I’ve also indulged in the occasional political opinion piece, essays and observations about homeschooling, even poetry.
If you enjoy reading what I write here at Semicolon, I am both appreciative and humbled. If you’ve commented, even once or even negatively, I thank you for the contribution. If you read and never comment, I thank you, too, for making it fun to blog. Without readers, even if it’s only one, I am the proverbial tree falling in the forest. Maybe the tree would fall and make a sound anyway, but it wouldn’t make nearly as satisfying a boom. Communication and sharpening of thoughts and ideas are what blogging is all about for me.
I hope to continue blogging for as long as the process satisfies something within me and keeps me thinking. I hope you’ll continue reading for whatever your reasons are. In addition to the links above, here are some of my favorite posts from the past six years. Enjoy.

Happy blogiversary!!
Congratulations, Sherry!
So glad you started the blog, which I only recently discovered. Is that the whole review of *Patrick* in the original post you linked to? If not, is there somewhere else we can read it?
Congrats on your blogiversary!
Happy blogiversary, and I’m so happy you’re here! 🙂 I think your blog is the one that made blogging appealing to me–book blogging was (and is) a niche I could nestle down into and stay. 🙂
Happy blogiversary!!
Wow! Happy 6th Blogiversary! That’s quite an accomplishment! I read your blog, but don’t comment (well, maybe once twice); however, I do participate in your Saturday links and have received some great book recommendations. Thanks! 🙂 Now, I’m off to take a peak at your post about Jayber Crow. I have that one on my TBR Shelf.
Congratulations! I rarely comment but always enjoy. I am loving Picturebook Preschool, too. I think I’m enjoying even more than my daughter! :c)
Keep up the good work.
Few days late as I work my way back through my blogreader, but Happy Blogiversary!
