Kim Marie Ostrowski
Crafter, writer, and blogger in Yonkers, NY
I have previously written on (the now defunct) Squidoo.com. I had over 200 pages (or lenses as they called them) including works in progress. I also earned some 'awards' as well. Most of those pages are now on Hubpages.com (but also trying to comply to my blog).
The topics on there and of my Blogs (which you can find below) are Entertainment (books, Movie, tv & product reviews etc), Biographies, recipes, crafts, Holidays & some educational pages on writing, Poetry, Norse/vikings.
I have over 100 finished poems and more in the works. I am currently trying to get things together to publish my Poetry book in some way.
I was previously working on 2 stories (not sure if they would be short or novel size) & there's one more I have notes for. They are all fictional but one may be a prediction as it's set sometime in the future.
My Interests and hobbies are varied
I like Norse mythology, Vampires, Playing all sorts of games Farkle, Board games, especially Monopoly & Backgammon, card games etc. I like to play Bocce ball (at family gatherings)
I do a variety of crafts like making Jewelry (mostly earrings), sewing I make pillow cases, pillows, and a mostly work on my Patchwork sheet. I also enjoy Diamond painting and find it calming and helps me to focus. The last craft I picked up is resin molding and last but not least coloring.
I like to watch Movies, Mostly Horror, action, thrillers & especially Vampires (Twilight for the lack of fangs does not count!...) ©"No Fang No Bang" as I say. Some of my favorite movies are Jaws, Lost Boys and Avatar a new Classic & Avengers and we can now add Dracula Untold to that list (which I trudged through knee deep snow in a blizzard to buy at the store) . The same genres go for what I read as well.
Sports, I watch Nascar well now that he's no longer driving, usually just when he's on the telecast. I have watched Wrestling on and off since I was little, STING forever. I got to see him in person during AEW Full Gear in 2022. Love Randy Orton & CM Punk are my tops in WWE The Rhodes brothers, Natalya (the only Diva worth following) and many from AEW (I find that to be actually entertaining unlike predictable conformist WWE). I used to watch the NHL like religion even would go upstate to visit my teams ‘farm’ team.
Simply put I'd say I'm a Metal Head. The older I get the heavier (and louder) I like it.
Some of my fave 'classic' bands are Aerosmith Kiss Led Zepplin Rolling Stones current faves are Godsmack #1 3 Days Grace Avenged Sevenfold, Five Finger Death Punch, My Darkest Days, Breaking Benjamin Tyr (Viking Metal band) Linkin Park, Rev Theory, & Bullet For My Valentine RIP OZZY
Some favorite shows are Vikings, The Walking Dead, Animal Kingdom, American Horror Story, Supernatural (I miss )Undateable
