• September Reads

                    September was a tough month. Being back at work and being a new mom took its toll and I was just exhausted. I found myself laying on the couch binge watching television more than anything else. And this is something I almost never do. I was just so damn tired. However, I did manage…

  • Cozy Reading Place

    In my dreams, I have a place like this to do my reading. In reality, I read on my lunch break in a crowded stockroom and before bed if the baby goes down easy. Maybe one day my dream will be my reality 🙂 Check back Thursday to hear about the books I managed to…

  • Reading Music

    In the spirit of this week’s blog post, here’s some music I like to listen to while reading

  • August Reads

                    I really pushed the line this month on getting my four books read. One of the books took too long to read and I had to finish up during the last week. But I still managed it, so that’s something. The Four Before Me by E. H. Night                 I was intrigued from the…

  • July Reads

                    Wow, July seemed to fly by. But I still managed to do my reading, coming in right under the wire again like last month. This time wasn’t due to procrastination or being busy, however, it just came down to the length of two of the books I decided to read. One of which was…

  • June Reads

                    Came in just under the wire for my four books of June. Finished the last book late last night when little baby man didn’t let me sleep, haha. Probably not the best idea, because now I’m incredibly tired, but I couldn’t put the book down. Aside from reaching my monthly goal, I was also…

  • DIY MFA prompt: A Book that Changed My Life

                    I need to go to the bookstore! I’m out of informational books to read. So, when I am stuck in a place like this, I turn to the DIY MFA website to read articles to learn me some knowledge (and possibly find suggestions on more books to buy!).                 As I perused through several…

  • April Reads

                    Four books for the month of April. One of them was on my overall reading list. I’m really enjoying reflecting on the books in my book journal. I feel like it benefits me not only as a reader, but also as a writer. I look deeper into the books and analyze technique more thoroughly…

  • March Reads

                    In the month of March, I read four books and met my goal. Three of the books (!!) were on my overall reading list and I was able to mark them off. I also started a book journal this month to better record my thoughts and feelings about the books that I read. The…
