Hello! Back in 2018, when I knew nothing about book blogging but started Functionally Fictional anyway, I thought it would be fun to do a weekly Friday Favorites post. I had no idea that was already a thing.
Well, it’s no longer being hosted by anyone (as far as I’m aware), so I thought I’d jump in to do the job! So here’s how this is going to work…
Below are prompts for the next few weeks, and I will update as the year goes on. You’re welcome to participate whenever, whether you keep up with the schedule or jump around. All I ask is that you please tag this original post in your introduction.
Each week, I’ll have a linky on my own post where you can share yours. You are also welcome to add your links to the Facebook and Twitter posts each Friday when shared!
If you have any prompt suggestions, please let me know!
