You can’t miss Nina’s blog–It’s HOT PINK! Nina often leaves comments here so I decided to invite her for an interview. WATCH FOR THE GIVEAWAY AT THE END. Here’s Nina’s interview:<\/span><\/p>\n

1-Who are your favorite authors?<\/span>
\nOh, my, so many to pick from. Like James Patterson, Janet Tronstad, many of the historical authors of the Love Inspired books from Harlequin, Terry Brooks, Lynn Kurland, Susan Sleeman, Sandra Orchard, Dean Koontz, Rachelle McCalla, Lyn Cote, Michael Connelly, lots of them, I like to read cookbooks, anything.\u00a0 LOL.<\/p>\n

2-What kind of book is the one you look for in bookstores and online?<\/span>
\nI like mysteries, and the Love Inspired books, also new knitting and crochet stitch books. Also James Patterson and Lynn Kurland, can not seem to find hers too easy, its hard to even get hers at the local library. If I see one I want and its from Harlequin I can just call the reader service to get it mailed to me.<\/p>\n

3-What prompted you to start a book blogging site?<\/span><\/p>\n

I didn\u2019t at first, it was a place for my free knitting, sewing and crochet patterns. Then I added recipes and the book reviews I did on Goodreads and some machine knitting books that I have reviewed. I\u2019ve had the site for about four or five years. Here\u2019s the link to the reviews: http:\/\/ninasatmyhouse.blogspot.com\/search\/label\/Reading<\/a><\/p>\n

4-Tell us a bit about yourself.<\/span>
\nI love to read, and finally have a library of sorts, lots of bookcases in my entry way of my home. Used to like to write but life got in the way, but have never had any thing published, I like to see the characters come alive. I also like to designed things, including knit, crochet, machine knit and sewing patterns.\u00a0 I’ve been crocheting over 47 years, teaching myself at age nineteen, first with thread, and then much later, yarn.\u00a0 I learned to knit at age 4, so that\u2019s over 60 years ago.<\/p>\n

Back then I had not learned to read the crochet or knit patterns, so I took the stitches I had learned and crocheted or knitted around things to make them look pretty, like things for my bedroom.\u00a0 In the past years, I’ve sold both knitted and crocheted designs, and have lots of free knitting and crochet patterns on my list at http:\/\/groups.yahoo.com\/group\/Atmyhouse<\/a>,<\/p>\n

and even more on the patterns on the blog that are not on the list at http:\/\/ninasatmyhouse.blogspot.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I love to knit ski hats, and some of my free patterns are on the blog. I gave most of the hats away to charity. I am retired now, and can play with my “toys” anytime I want. After all these years, I still like to read, knit, crochet, cook and sew.<\/p>\n

Nina, <\/span>on behalf of many authors–thanks for all the reviews.\u00a0Thanks for being my guest today!<\/span> You sound like my kind of lady! I love to knit, crochet, read and cook too!<\/span><\/p>\n

QUESTION: Anybody else like to do those activities? Which is your favorite? How long ago did you start knitting, etc? Leave a comment and enter a drawing for a signed copy of my LARGER PRINT book DANGEROUS SEASON. –Lyn<\/span><\/p>\n
