Wrap It Up! The Urban Outlander’s 2016 Posts

By theurb03

2016? Done.

This was the first year of my website and it’s been fun! Earlier this year I was bored (and unemployed) so I thought I might indulge my obsession and begin a blog. Yes there are so many Outlander blogs out there but there’s only one of me!

Thanks to any and all who have taken some time to watch or read any of my musings. If you’re new, welcome and hello!

Diana Gabaldon’s books and the Starz TV show offers so much fodder for discussion and connection with other fans! What would my life be like without reading the books, watching the show, connecting with others, and going to Scotland in 2017?

The possibilities are endless!

Below are some of my posts from this year if you missed them. Just click on the title! You can check out my vlogs of Season 2 episode recaps here as you rewatch during Droughtlander.

Don’t forget to connect with me on Twitter, like my page on Facebook, subscribe to my Youtube channel and leave comments, oh and why not sign up for a newsletter at the bottom of this page? (In 2017, I will get Instagram up and running before my Scotland trip.)

 

Thanks again and see you in 2017!
