Weekly Me #8

Friday, May 16, 2025

 What I've been Writing: 

Dearest Thief -  I'm pretty sure Dearest Thief isn't going to stay the name of this story, but I keep waffling between Day Robber, Impostors and Thieves, The Kingdom of Impostors and Thieves, The Impostor Prince, The Light Caster, Dawn of the Wolf, and more, so I'll just keep calling it Dearest Thief until I decide. Whatever its title will be, we're at 28,000 words now, and I'm just getting into chapter seven. 


What I've been Reading: 

I finally finished book 1 of the Flesh and Fire series by Jennifer L. Armentrout, and I'm halfway into Book Two: A Light in the Flame. No idea why it's taking me so long to slog my way through these. They're really good with lots of action. I think they're just incredibly long.


What I've been Buying: 

So Lydia is the organizer of my new library shelves. And she claims I need more sprayed edges with GREEN on them, so I found The Dragon Wakes with Thunder to preorder.  Of course, that one is a book two in its series, so... I had to get Book one. Ergo, this week, I bought The Night Ends with Fire by K. X. Song. 



Weekly Me #7

Friday, May 9, 2025

 What I've been Writing:

Zero Chance - The second editor is done! I've gone through the story again, and it's now with the last proofreader. It's currently weighing in at 149,939 words, and we are on schedule to release on June 13th. Yay!


What I've been Reading: 

I'm still working my way through A Shadow in the Ember, Book 1 of the Flesh and Fire series by Jennifer L. Armentrout. And my evenings should start freeing up a little more again, so hopefully I'll have more time to actually finish it this upcoming week.


What I've been Buying: 

I got a copy of the new release, Shield of Sparrows by Devney Perry. And that's it for this week!



Weekly Me #6

Friday, May 2, 2025

 What I've been Writing: 

Nothing.  This week has been insanely busy at the day job, which has left me brain-dead after I clock out.  I'm pretty scatterbrained at the moment with an overload of things to do. So yeah, no writing updates.  Sorry.


What I've been Reading:

So I haven't been reading much either.  I finished the last Knockemout book by Lucy Score, which was my favorite.  Lucian was very yummy. And I've started on the Flesh and Fire series by Jennifer L. Armentrout. Book 1 - A Shadow in the Ember.  


What I've been Buying: 

So I went to my local bookstore last Saturday and got a couple of things I hadn't heard of before. Hopefully, I like them!

  • The Lost Apothecary
  • The Spell Shop
  • Her Soul to Take
  • Blood on her Tongue
