IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: The Future of Histories and Mysteries

-
 
THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT FOR ALL THOSE
WHO READ THIS BLOG (THANK YOU FOR DOING SO, BY THE WAY!)

Now that I've got your attention … For a while now, I have been considering how long I will be blogging in general and blogging at Histories and Mysteries specifically. Since I will most likely start college in the fall, I have been thinking about how I will best use my time. I will undoubtedly have a lot more homework to do, but I also want to be able to concentrate on writing my novels as well as keeping up with the latest political news since that is what I plan on studying.

I have decided that I want to be able to write a lot more of my novels. With the schedule at Histories and Mysteries, I don't have a lot of time for that since I spend a lot of time brainstorming and writing here instead. And as much as I love that, writing those articles can take me up to an hour depending on how much research needs to be done. I want to be able to blog less and write a lot more. Also since I am going to start college, I want to spend more time concentrating on my studies and fine-tuning my focuses to learning politics which is the field that I want to study.

This is why I have decided to end Histories and Mysteries after two years of blogging here. This is the last article too. I'm very glad that I got the opportunity to do so for the past two years, but I'm moving on. Any objections should be posted in the comments.

About Me: An Imprint

  Allo (That was an allusion to Hercule Poirot), readers! My name is Chinalyi, and welcome to my blog! I love history, geography, literature, writing, and crime fiction novels so that is what I will be posting about. I live in Southern California and have two siblings. I have a brother and an adorable two-year old sister, but no pets (I'm working on that). I am homeschooled and I just began a long, tiresome 11th grade year. My favorite subjects are history, geography, and literature. I love history since I believe that learning about the past helps me make better decisions in the future. I have always found it fascinating to memorize locations on a map, and then learn about each countries’ cultures. I probably received my desire to travel from my study of geography. Literature class is always appealing to an avid reader. I was introduced to both of my favorite book series in Literature class. Speaking of literature, I would highly recommend The Tod Moran Mystery Series by H

The Middle East ~ Part 2

Histories and Mysteries looks different (again). The tan brown was really bugging me so I decided to go with gray, black, and white. The fonts are also different because there was  some difficulties with the title of the blog on the mobile site. And you may or may not have noticed that I added a "Today in History" feature on the sidebar of my blog. I will probably only change it on the weekdays because I am apt to forget to change it on the weekends. I also condensed the labels for my posts because I had a lot of those before. I hope you like the new design.  The geographical map of the Middle East  Today's article continues our study of geography. There are quite a few countries in the Middle East. I am going to do a short overview of the geography of the Middle East for this article, and next month I will post about the country of Israel. I did post a geography/history article over the Middle East, but that was more centered on modern history.  But firs

2017 Summer Highlights

Although it is the last day of July, it is still July so this is a miscellaneous article about some highlights of my summer. I had a great summer break off school and I was able to do many things. The main ones are listed below: Finishing School This is a very frequent happening, but every summer I finally complete my school year. I finished 10th grade this year, and it was extremely tough compared to my previous grades. There were many changes between Jr. High and High School. I had to study harder and had to write longer reports and essays. But 10th grade was also very different from 9th grade. I had even more work to do, and had to apply logical thinking to many of my subjects. This was mostly so in Biology class where application questions were on my tests and exams. I also began to take some notes, and began to use flashcards for both my English and Spanish vocabulary terms. I was glad to be finally done with that school year although I knew that I would be moving on to an
