As 2022 barrels down on us, I can say two things with certainty: 1) I still dislike cold weather; and 2) If the Kindle Unlimited price ever goes up, it’s probably my fault.
But good news! In 3 weeks, I’ll be headed to warmer waters (literally) for a much-needed true vacation. And the best part of all the reading I did this year was finding so many new amazing authors whose work has been a true bright spot in my life. 2021 was yet another difficult year for many, myself included, and I have no idea what 2022 will bring, but I’m going to look forward to it.
Before we move on to the other stuff, the front page of my website got a sexy makeover. Check it out if you haven’t visited in a while!
November Wrap-Up
- Did I win NaNoWriMo this year? No. Do I feel bad about it? Also, no. Just under 20k words did get added to Steel Legacy, and I made some important decisions about both the direction the book is going and how to better serve my mental health in the process.
- Even when writing didn’t happen, I did keep up on my blogging. Book reviews are officially scheduled out into January.
December Goals
- The usual writing shenanigans.
- Thoroughly enjoy being on a giant boat for the holidays. I’m already working on a special “to be read” list specifically for the 8-day cruise.
