I'm Not Dead

By -
Hello, my lovely readers.

It's been a while, hasn't it?

I took an undecided, unannounced blogging break. I could explain about my real-world health problems, college crisis, schedule craziness, or high school senioritis. But I don't feel like making a laundry list of the issues driving me in circles this past month. Instead, I'll just say I fell off the blogging bandwagon and didn't really care about getting back on. I'm back now, so let's focus on the happy stuff.

Like my best friend's birthday on March 29. The best friend I based characters in my book Sixteen about. Speaking of Sixteen, something else very important occurred on March 29...



So, yeah, go buy it if you want. I'd love a review once you've read it, if you're feeling particularly generous.

Oh, and a bit of other news: since I've been finding it so hard to stick to blogging, I've decided to scale back the blogging schedule once again. This will probably only last until after graduation in late May, since I always feel like blogging more often in the summer. For now, though, I'll be popping in on Wednesdays and only on Wednesdays. I may or may not have a new series coming up next week... haven't decided yet. Just keep your eyes peeled ;) If I do go ahead with it, it's going to be huge. Life-changing. Trust me.

      Haha, that it is! And no, mostly just annoying but necessary tests and medication changes.

    That is exciting about your book being in print. I'd buy it, but I already have the ebook. I liked it a lot though!
    I hope you start to feel better soon and things slow down for you. And I look forward to your Wednesday posts!

      Thanks! Right now it's looking like this month will be all book reviews. I've fallen a bit behind in that area :3

Captives by Jill Williamson Will Mason uncover the truth hidden behind the Safe Lands’ façade before it’s too late? {Giveaway after the review} Amazon Page GoodReads Page LibraryThing Page Author Website Amazon Summary: One choice could destroy them all.

Firmoo: Global Online Optical Store (Review and Giveaway!)

One thing you, my lovely readers, may not be aware of - or may be confused about - is that I wear glasses.  Most of the images on my blog show me wearing my lovely Vera Bradley glasses, although my main photo (see me in the green dress in the right sidebar?) was taken while I was wearing contacts. My entire family actually wears glasses, contacts, or a combination.  That adds up to a good deal of money in eye doctor appointments, prescriptions, and new glasses - lens and frames - and contacts.  So when Firmoo , an international online glasses company, approached me about a review and giveaway, of course I said yes!
