The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba @ Caffeinated Book Reviewer ~ It’s a chance to share news ~ A post to recap the past week on my blog and share news about what’s coming up in the week ahead.
This past week on FYFA (and in my life):
My new author website is live! I’d love it if you’d go to NicoleMHewitt.com and check it out! (There’s also a link in the menu here on the blog – I replaced the About Me page with a link to the new site.) The adorable main illustration was created by Dabi’s Diary, and the web design was done by the ultra-talented Jenny at Websy Daisy. It honestly turned out even better than I could have imagined it! Watch the site for updates on the book and other writerly news.
I’ve also been working on a possible school visit for next year, so that’s exciting too! I miss my days in the classroom.
What I Read This Week:
- I read The Stranded by Sarah Daniels, an intriguing dystopian set on a once-cruise-ship-turned-refugee-camp. And then I read Inside Out and Back Again and the new sequel, When Clouds Touch Us, both by Thanhhà Lại.
- I finished listening to The Last Human by Lee Bacon and started listening to Under the Whispering Door by T.J. Klune.
What I Watched:
- I’ve continued watching the newest episodes of American Idol.
- I started watching Sweet Tooth. A friend recommended this one to me, and I’m so glad she did because I’m loving it so far!
Here’s what you may have missed on the blog since my last Sunday Post:

Lots of good stuff! Have any news? Feel free to share in the comments!
Your site it great!! Kudos to everyone involved. How exciting that you may have a school visit. It must be quite a thrill to be able to go out and share your book. I am so happy for you!
I was originally thinking the site would be merged with this one, so it was a redesign of sorts with the header being a reimagining of my blog header. Since I decided to keep both, they’re now like sisters. 🙂
So exciting to have your site ready!
