December 2019 Wrap-Up

Hello! Welcome to my final post of the decade! I hope the 2010s were good to you, and I hope you have an even more amazing decade ahead of you. Being the last day of the year, it’s time to give a wrap-up for the year.

Books Read:

This has been a fairly busy month, visiting my parents in another state and trying to get edits done on my book, so I only managed to read 10 books. Two of them were rereads:

• Every Other Weekend – Abigail Johnson
• The Guinevere Deception – Kiersten White
• Thousands – Pepper Winters
• Of Curses and Kisses – Sandhya Menon
• Clockwork Princess – Cassandra Clare (reread)
• Father of Lions – Louise Callaghan
• Almost Midnight – Rainbow Rowell
• The Christmas Pact – Vi Keeland and Pelelope Ward
• Rebel – Marie Lu (reread)
• Echoes Between Us – Katie McGarry

Blog Stats:

Wait, what? How did my blog users go up? Over 450 people stopped by this month. Thank you! Maybe because I posted on Christmas Eve where a lot of people were taking a break. Twitter is up to 2130? Nice.

Writing:

I wanted to finish my fourth draft of The Brightness of Shadow, but I only managed to do 139 pages so far. It’s a major rewrite, and I’m sending this to beta readers after this (I promise).

Life:

Any month without a trip to the hospital is a success. I went to visit my family in Washington State. We almost thought we were going to have to take our cat on vacation with us, but my daughter’s friend decided to cat-sit at the last minute. Unfortunately, a couple of our fish have gotten sick :-(.

That’s all! Have a great New Year’s Eve and I’ll see you in 2020!
