MOTM December 2018: Tiny_Turtle

Post by bookowlie »

It’s time to pass the crown to our newest Member of the Month. Drumroll please…the December MOTM is Tiny_Turtle! Tiny_Turtle has been a reliable participant in the forums since April 2018. In addition to writing insightful, thorough reviews, our resident reptile shines in her support of other reviewers. Tiny_Turtle’s detailed comments on other members’ reviews are impressive, including her own opinions based on reading the sample. She can be counted on to answer questions and provide valuable tips, as well as offer site suggestions in a respectful manner. Tiny_Turtle’s contributions to the grammar discussions are particularly noteworthy. This turtle may be tiny, but her contributions are powerful. Please join me in congratulating Tiny_Turtle!

What a wonderful way to start my day, and my month. It was a complete surprise to have such an honor bestowed upon me for doing something that brings the amount of intellectual pleasure and challenges that I enjoy as a member of the OnlineBookClub Review Team.

I will do my best to help the OnlineBookClub to be the best that it can be. I will continue to offer assistance to anyone I see struggling, whether it's by offering advice or steering them to someone else who has the ability to help.

I appreciate the encouragement, support, and constructive criticism I have received since I have been a part of this group. Most importantly, I appreciate the amount of fun I have had. If we're not having fun, it's just not worth it.

Thank you. 💕

You don't get props...you have to provide your own. :D It's a tradition to wear something on your head during the month of your reign. Since it's December, here are a few suggestions - a Santa hat, elf hat, a crown encrusted with glittery snowflakes, or something of your own choosing! Congrats!

TURTLE POWER !!!

Well done Turtle!

Despite the fact that Owlie called you a reptile I'm sure she meant no disrespect. We are all aware that you are really an amphibian. I had a girlfriend once who called me a reptile for entirely different reasons ... but I digress.

Please accept my heartiest congratulations on this auspicious occasion!

And now for the obligatory, customary and celebratory BANANA DANCE ...
