    1. Yes, I was going to add Pollyanna to the list, but I couldn't remember who wrote it! Anna, I was just wondering if you would like to be Facebook friends? I won't be offended if you don't want to, but if you do, my name is Cheryl Gilmore, and I am in Merritt, British Columbia, Canada. We could phone each other through messenger, as well. I would like that. Again, I won't be offended, if you don't want to! Oh, and thank you so much, for picking me for your Alpha readers! I appreciate it, and promise to do my best for you.

The request would never offend me <3 The thing is to be honest I don't use Facebook much and I barely have anything on there haha :) But I would love to be friends with you on facebook, and I would love to talk to you sometimes! We'll figure it out :) I'll send you a request :)

Life Update and Living The Game

    LIFE UPDATE: HI! I haven't written anything in so long! I am so sorry. I hope to contribute more to my blog  more often now.      So, what's been going on in my life this last year? Well, I babysat a wonderful little girl full time for about a year before she moved to a different city. I love her and still keep in contact with her. In fact, I'm going to go see her in about a week to spend three glorious days with her and her parents. I am so darn excited! She had become like a daughter to me and I miss her deeply.       Since the last time I blogged, I started two YouTube channels! Knit and Crochet With a Gilmoregirl is a knitting and crocheting podcast. Join me if you would like to! I currently have forty-seven subscribers from all over the world. I love doing this podcast. I've been doing everything yarny for quite a while now, and I love sharing my passion with other people.       My second YouTube channel is a booktube. You can find it by searching, C

CHAPTER 1 of Living The Game

This is a sneak peek at my novel, "Living The Game." Hope you enjoy it! CHAPTER 1 OLIVIA I don’t belong here on earth. For as long as I can remember, I’ve felt that way; like I wasn’t meant to be born. I was a mistake, as my mom often reminded me. My parents were young when I was conceived, barely out of high school. My Grandpa, Mom’s dad, threatened my dad with his life if he didn’t marry his pregnant girlfriend. Neither she nor he wanted to get married, but they were scared not to. I was born, seven months later. For nine years, I was told I wasn’t wanted. My dad left us two years after they married, and my mom blamed me for that right from the start. She began to hit me, starting with a simple slap in the face, and ending with me in the hospital. It happened when I was nearly ten years old. I had been late getting home from school because I was held in detention after cl
