So many words. So little time.

Despite unrelenting craziness at work, this was a decent writing week. I wrote two book reviews, Metal Slinger, by Rachel Schneider (as far as twists go, this one had a doozy) and Thistlemarsh, by Moorea Corrigan (this felt like reading one of my favorite classic novels mixed with fantasy). I’m predicting minimal reading or writing this week, due a mandatory work conference, but we’ll see.
Happy writing!
This was an okay writing week: I wrote one book review, Deathly Fates, by Tesia Tsai and DNFed While You Were Seething. Work was super busy, and I was mentally exhausted, so i didn’t have time to read for several days, and I wasn’t eager to get back to Seething, which I took as a sign that I wasn’t that into it.
Happy writing!
Happy Easter!
This was a good writing week, although I didn’t get any fiction in. My Muse is…mulling over some things currently. I did write one book review, The Book Witch, by Meg Shaffer, my March reading post, and the best books I read in March.

This was a decent writing week. I wrote about a thousand words of fiction—not a lot, I know, but I wrote zero words of fiction last year, so I’m doing baby steps this year. I also wrote one book review, Daughter of Egypt, by Marie Benedict, and DNFed The Creek, the Crone, and the Crow, by Rachel Weiss (because it was really dragging for me).

This was a solid writing week. I wrote three book reviews, Heiress of Nowhere, by Stacey Lee, When the Rain Came, by Matt Eicheldinger, and Only Spell Deep, by Ava Morgyn. I wrote 1k on the fiction project, and outlined two scenes as well.,
Happy writing!
This week, I only wrote one book review, Midnight on the Celestial, by Julia Alexandra. I thoroughly enjoyed this read! I also wrote my February reading post, and the best books I read in February.
I also outlined two scenes in the fiction project and wrote 1k.
Happy writing!
I wrote about 1k on the fiction project. Work was very challenging this week, and I actually DNFed four books this week. I’m not sure if it’s because my reading time is limited so it has to be really solid to grab my attention, or the books I’ve been picking up lately are just that meh, but that’s 15 books I’ve DNFed so far this year.
The ones this week were A Good Animal, by Sara Mauerer (I couldn’t take the leisurely pace.), The Fall of Iris Henley, by Jennifer Graham (I made it about 35% through when the social media toxicity and everyone being nasty started, and I just couldn’t.), The Wicked and the Damned, by Rebecca Robinson (I really liked the first book in this series, but I just couldn’t make myself care here.), and The Valley of Vengeful Ghosts, by Kim Fu (I cannot stand passive, woe-is-me people, so, NO.).
Happy writing! (And reading, for that matter.)
This week, I only wrote one book review, All in Her Hands, by Audrey Blake. I also DNFed two books, The Astral Library (if I was interested in the author’s politics, I’d read her blog, not her fiction) and Weavingshaw (I’m all for a slow burn, but not one THIS.ridiculously.SLOW).
I also outlined two scenes for the fiction project, and wrote a thousand words, so I’m happy with it.
Happy writing!
Man, writing has been a struggle lately. Well, to be even more accurate, reading has been a struggle lately. Work and life have been so chaotic that I just haven’t had time to read, and so I haven’t written any book reviews. This week, I wrote one review, The Sun and the Starmaker, by Rachel Griffin. I’ve been trying to start reading this for two weeks and it just hasn’t happened, but finally!
I also got in about 1,000 fiction words! Granted, they were mostly reused from an earlier draft, but still. That’s the first fiction I’ve written in over a year! And I outlined two more scenes today, so all in all, the week is a writing win!
Happy writing!
This week, I didn’t do much writing. Texas doesn’t do well with any winter storms, and the amount of ice we got last weekend made this week absolutely nuts. And when the ice was gone, the usual craziness came back with a vengeance. I only wrote one book review this week, Agnes Aubert’s Mystical Cat Shelter, by Heather Fawcett, but I did outline six scenes in the fiction project, so it’s a win.
Happy writing!
