WordVixen's Lensography

There was a time in my life where the only time I felt at peace was listening to sermons online. At first I couldn't figure out where I could find free sermons besides the podcast from my church. After all, non-profits tend to not be overly tech savv...

This past Christmas, I saw the coolest pair of mens boxer shorts. They were a dark blue with the DC Comics The Joker face on the front, and the words The Joker on the butt. They were awesome. But the store I saw them in had the wrong size for my hus...

I love Live365. Truly, they have a variety unmatched by any other internet radio service that I've tried. Not every station is free, but even their selection of free stations is much better than their competitors, and the stations that you get with...

The Easy Sprout Sprouter made my task so much easier. You see, I was offered an opportunity to review a wheatgrass juicer. The problem is, no one locally sells wheatgrass which meant that I had to take my black thumb and try to turn it green. Lucki...

I know that I'm a little outside of the Christian YA target age group, but these days genres cross all boundaries. Good writing is good writing, and the books on this list just blow those boundaries to smithereens. Just so you know, Donita K Paul's...

Otherwise known as "humorous Women's Fiction". I love chick-lit almost as much as I love fantasy. I love the smarmy attitudes, the slightly-more-realistic romances than typical romance novels, the independence... But in most chick-lit there's one el...

I'm a huge fan of chick-lit, fantasy, and anything humor.  I also can't get enough of "how to write books" books.  Anyway, I'm always talking about what I'm reading on my blogs, and reviewing them for TitleTrakk.com.  So, I t...

I have loved fantasy for well over 10 years- and Christian fantasy is a subgenre that finally seems to be coming into its own. True, authors like Stephen R Lawhead have been around for ages, and Tolkein is considered the father of fantasy, Christian...

I already have a Lensography (which needs to be updated with my recent lens building obsession), but with all the recipe lenses I've built, I thought that perhaps I need a lensography just for those. So here it is!

I have a million and one interests, but I tend to focus on one or two at a time, almost to the point of obsession. Well, during one of my Disney obsession moments (I always love Disney, just at times more than others), I built a whole slew of Disney...

Being efficient is a wonderful thing on your own time because it allows you to spend more time pursuing your interests. But being efficient at your day job? Not so good, unless you're swamped with work. So what to do with all those extra minutes, o...

Writers need diversions too, and we often have a burning need to feel as though we're being productive when we're really procrastinating. But writer games are a great way to unwind with friends, prompt our creativity, or give a unique spin to a book...

My husband is a child of the 70's and an avid board gamer. Every year, it seems, he brings out yet another game from his childhood and convinces me to play it. He prefers the old school VCR games to what is being produced today on DVD. Of course, At...

When I first met my husband, I had never even heard of DVD games (or VHS games, for that matter!). However, being a huge gamer of all kinds, he wasted no time in introducing me to some of his favorite DVD games. Some I even liked! Of course, some of...

My husband grew up in the '70's, and has maintained a great love of the era. When I met him a little over 6 years ago, he wasted no time introducing me to a few of his favorite things- most of which were electronic board games. Some of them stuck: D...

VixenCrafts.Com is a How-To craft site offering step by step instructions for simple crafts that you can make easily, and without spending a lot of money on supplies. All tutorials are for crafts that I developed on my own, or adapted from other sou...

I have a serious love on for most hand crafted items. Maybe it's because I'm a crafter and jewelry maker myself, maybe it's just because I start out hating anything "normal" and have to be won over. Etsy is a goldmine for people like me, and there a...

Even though I am not vegan, I do know that vegan products are usually created with more care than other products. I often make the effort to purchase items from smaller stores and businesses, but lately I noticed that I wasn't able to do so as I hav...

I have a mad love-on for bags, purses, and anything else that can hold things (I've used thimbles as mini-bowls). I also have a love-on for most hand crafted items. When I first got into Etsy, my main objects of drool were the purses, and I still go...
