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):
I’ve got everything together for my author website, and my designer starts work on it next week. I’ll let you know when it goes live!
I’ve been working on outlining a new book, which I had previously worked a bit on but I needed to step back and do some better outlining before I kept writing. I feel good about where I’m at and where I’m going now.
What I Read This Week:
- I read Escape from Grimstone Manor by Matt McMann, Perfect Villains by Jennifer Torres, Swim Team by Johnnie Christmas, The Mighty Bite by Nathan Hale, and Global by Eoin Colfer & Andrew Donkin, illustrated by Giovanni Rigano. Some great reading!!
- I finished listening to Two Degrees by Alan Gratz and then started listening to The Last Human by Lee Bacon.
What I Watched:
- I’ve continued watching the newest episodes of American Idol.
- I watched the entire series of Jury Duty. This show is really hilarious, and I definitely recommend it. I describe it as, imagine The Office except one person thinks they’re doing a real documentary. (Incidentally, I found out after I described it this way that the creators were actually involved in The Office, so I guess that makes sense!)
Here’s what you may have missed on the blog since my last Sunday Post:
