Hello, dear readers. So sorry that I've been a bit MIA. Things have been sort of crazy in my formally quiet little life. Well, actually, my life has never been what one might call quiet. However, if I had been cruising along the highway of life at 60 MPH, now it's more like 120 MPH.
Let me enlighten you. Here's what's been going on in my reading/writing world:
1. I have been reading a lot more, which I am quite pleased about, considering how crazy things are. I'm still not reading as much as I was when I was homeschooled, but I have been reading more than I did in the beginning of the year. I'm currently reading Scarlet, book 2 in the Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer. LOVED book 1, Cinder-- definitely a book that will be reviewed soon=) But I might have to shelf Scarlet for a bit because my hold on Requiem (book 3 in the Delirium series by Lauren Oliver) just came in! I've been DYING to read it.
2. I mentioned before that I'm working on a new story. Progress on that is slow, but it's coming along. I'll try and post an excerpt soon. That leads me to thing number 3. . .
3. Preparations for Camp Nanowrimo! I'm going to camp this April because I really want to write the mentioned story. I'm absolutely in love with my characters already and I'm really enjoying writing their story. I've never done Camp Nano, but I think it would be a great way to help my story along. Plus, my birthday is in April, so Nano is the best present ever!
Now, here's what's been going on with everything else:
1. Toledo. I mentioned before that we're moving, which is crazy stuff in itself. Selling our house, buying a house, and registering in a new school (I'm SUPER excited about this new school, just thought I'd throw that out there) has been demanding most of my family's time. Even though I guess I personally don't have to sell our house or buy one, it still weighs heavily on my mind. Which is sort of dumb, considering that there's nothing I can do about it.
2. School, meh. Pretty self-explanitory. I've been working crazy hard to keep my grades up because of this new school I'll be going to.
And here's a sneak peak at some things coming soon on AM Station:
1. Cinder/Scarlet book review! Already spoke a bit about that, stay tuned!
2. Guest post! I'm pretty sure Perks of Being a Wallflower is going to be reviewed, but more on that later.
3. Camp Nanowrimo updates! I highly encourage you to take part in this upcoming camp. It sounds like it's going to be AMAZING!
Thanks for reading, guys. You all seriously rock my world-- thank you for taking the time to read my blog=)
Hmmm, camp NaNo... INteresting, but I do have a novel in need of a first draft. I wonder if I'll be starting by then... I'll have to look into that.
ReplyDeleteOh, and good for you working on keeping your grades up. That is simply not easy to do!
Thank you, Rena! It is pretty tough, but so worth it=) Would love to see you at camp! http://www.campnanowrimo.org/
