Actually, I have two announcements. First comes from my “Stacking the Shelves” post, hosted by Tynga’s Reviews. The podcast that I co-host, Bibliophiles Anonymous, has been approved to receive a couple of Advanced Reader Copies (or ARC’s) of some books that are coming out over the next few months! Which means that I now have a copy of  Crimson Frost by Jennifer Estep, the fourth book in her Mythos Academy series. Since I haven’t read any of the first three books, I had to go out and get them. Just to be prepared, of course.

And then there’s the matter of my writing challenge. I had set the goal that I over a period of six weeks, I would write 30,000 words. As of last Friday, November 30th, I exceeded that goal by writing 33,407 words. Not only that, I think that I have actually finished the rough draft of my book. My hands are shaking just typing that sentence. This is so unbelievably exciting! I have never finished a writing project before. Not that it’s anywhere near finished. It still needs a TON of work. But this is a huge hurdle that I have made it over. Now I get to move on to the next step. 🙂
