So many words. So little time.

This was a great writing week! I wrote four book reviews: Morgan Is My Name, by Sophie Keetch, Whispers at Dusk, by Heather Graham, A Shadow in Moscow, by Katherine Reay, and A Rogue at Stonecliffe, by Candace Camp, as well as my June reading post. I also read some great books, and I’m looking forward to telling you about them.
Happy writing!
Another challenging week, but I wrote two book reviews: The Little Italian Hotel, by Phaedra Patrick and Same Time Next Summer, by Annabel Monaghan. I also got a little bit of reading done, so I’m calling it a win.

This was a very challenging week. I wrote one book review, Painted Devils, by Margaret Owen, my May reading post, and my best books I read in May post. I also worked 50+ hours at work, and I am tired. I didn’t get much reading done during the week. I’m really hoping this next week is a bit easier.

This was a decent writing week: I wrote two book reviews, The Viscount Who Vexed Me, by Julia London and The Dueling Duchess, by Minerva Spencer. I also did a little bit of work on my story idea. I need to make some decisions on setting and culture, so I can push through my inertia there.

This week, I only wrote one book review, Emma of 83rd Street, by Audrey Bellezza and Emily Harding. This week was kind of crazy, so I didn’t get much reading time, and I DNFed a couple of books, too. Hopefully next week will be better.

Yeah, this week was kind of a bust as far as writing goes. I wrote one book review (Famous for a Living, by Melissa Ferguson)…and I DNFed three other books. Well. Some weeks are like that. Hopefully next week will be better!

This was a decent writing week: I wrote three book reviews (Warrior Girl Unearthed, The Secret Book of Flora Lea, and The Last One to Fall by Gabriella Lepore, forthcoming), my April reading post, and the best books I read in April post. My job has entered a new stage of crazy, so writing will be challenging for a while, but I’m looking forward to doing more brainstorming on the potential fiction idea.

This week, I wrote two book reviews: An American Beauty, by Shana Abe and The Ferryman, by Justin Cronin (forthcoming). An American Beauty was a decent historical fiction read, although the MC felt really distant. And The Ferryman….well, I’ve decided that Justin Cronin’s writing just isn’t for me. The first 2/3rds of this book felt very “done” to me, like I’d read something similar a few times before. The last third just felt like confusing chaos. So, yeah, I’ll probably be skipping his stuff in the future.
I also wrote a post over on A Little Bit Greener: garden greenery and blooms.
My family is in town, so I haven’t been doing much reading. Hopefully I’ll make up for that in the next day or two.
Happy writing!
I ended up working an extra day this week—and all five days were mentally exhausting—so I only wrote one book review this week, Pieces of Me, by Kate McLaughlin. (Interesting read, but it struck me as a bit sugar-coated.) I also DNFed three books (again), Where Coyotes Howl, The Dutch Orphan, and Under the Cover of Mercy. The first one, I DNFed because there was no conflict in the first 25%, the second, the POV was too distant for my taste, and the last one, the MC felt a bit haughty and distant.
I also wrote four posts on A Little Bit Greener: Green=peace of mind, Time is greener, Sometimes it’s hard to find the light, and tell them they’re pretty. I honestly didn’t realize I wrote that much this week…I ALSO binge read Kresley Cole’s From the Gave , the final book in the Arcana series, which I love.
I also did a solid bit of brainstorming on the new story idea, so I’m very happy with this week of writing!
Happy writing
This week, I wrote three book reviews, Silver in the Bone, by Alexandra Bracken, This Isn’t Going to End Well, by Daniel Wallace, and How to Best A Marquess, by Janna MacGregor (that’ll be up tomorrow). I also DNFed four books, including This Isn’t Going to End Well, but it’s for a blog tour, so I wrote a review anyway. Also on the DNF list were The House is On Fire, The Seaside Library, and Blind Spots. I guess nothing measured up to Silver in the Bone, which I read last weekend.
Happy writing!
