A (Very Belated) Writing Update
If you look at my blog, you'll see that I haven't written a blog post in a month... oops. I never expect or plan to have these hiatuses, but they always justĀ happen. But when we're on the lead up to Christmas, times get crazy and my blog kind of falls to the wayside....

A Day in the Life of Me – Guest Post by M. J. Marinescu [Forsaken Genesis Blog Tour]
Hooowdy! I don't take part in blog tours very often any more - especially not as many as I used to. But when I was asked to join the tour for this book, I thought it sounded amazing. I'm a bit insanely busy right now with work and the podcast and prepping for...
Snippet Reviews: Books I Should Have Reviewed Already (Oops)
If you're a book blogger, you might feel my pain when I say that sometimes, IĀ reallyĀ wish I reviewed books as soon as I finished them. There are a few books that I read ages ago but for some reason, I just didn't get around to writing reviews! I like to review...
