HELLO!

or meow~

I'd like to introduce myself starting off with my name, which is Yagmur (which means Rain by the way) and then talk to you about "the thing" that can knock me off my feet and make me talk and rave about it on and on and on...

Books...

Images belong to me. You can check more of them out @ okurkediblog on Instagram.

I always, ALWAYS loved reading.

Don't go away thinking what I am saying is deep into the cliché lands. I mean whatever I say about books.

Some of the times I do it to escape from my own reality. Sometimes you genuinely pick up a book that can teach you the way you would never ever imagine. Yes, it also helps with reading, speaking and cognitive abilities. Although, you do not necessarily have to read a book for it to add you something. Sometimes, you just read it. Like watching a TV series. You just sit there, lay back, have a sip of your hot Chai Tea Latte (I'm mocking around now) and just enjoy.

That is my humble opinion.

ANYWAYS;

Since I loved looking through papers with some symbols on them and whimsically enjoy doing so, I said, why not share what I learned and gained throughout these years spent with books, to other people? I could do book reviews, I could suggest books or seriously not recommend them (sometimes... one cannot love the whole books around the world) or I could basically talk anything about books. "Just give me a camera. And I'll do it, I'd love to do it." I said to myself.

That is why I literally spent money on a website. (www.okurkedi.com)

That is why (and don't really now how) I wake up at 9 a.m. every morning now to take book photographs. (@ okurkediblog on instagram)

That is why I just came home from a hardware store which I went to get myself a cheaper version of those fancy soft box lights. You know, if you want to deliver a message, you have to take people's interest. I think I pay quite an attention to what I am doing at the moment. (again, okurkedi on youtube)

Now, the thing is, my content in all of those links are in Turkish. So, when I realized this community, I said, I can do what I do all over again, in English and post it to Steemit.

Money plays a big role in this site I know, hence the whole framework, but I would be happier than ever if I could reach a big amount of people here -with my book reviews and recommendations and so on...

To be quite honest, I wish to publish a book one day. At least one I should say. So, in addition to everything I plan to upload regarding books, I also wish to post some of my own writings. I just imagine sitting here, in front of my PC and reading this community's comments, all the criticism, negative or positive, on my writings... The feeling just melts my heart away, I hope you can understand my enthusiasm on this whole paper and letters thing.

I can only try to be patient and slowly but surely give you good content in time.

But I have to say, this is exciting. Thank you all for Steemit. I genuinely love the idea.

Hope to see you in other posts... Take care x

btw: okurkedi means reader cat :3
