Starting today, I’ll be participating in Five Things Friday on the last Friday of the month.
In the past, my focus has been on more of what I’ve been reading, but since I now post updates on that every Monday, it would get a bit redundant. Because personal posts were pretty popular last year, I thought I’d change the focus a bit.
One- What I’m Writing
Right now, I’ve been working on my newest YA horror novel, set in a post-apocalyptic world with some terrifying creatures. I’m also querying my last novel, and have a short story that was just accepted for publication. Stay tuned…
Two- Random Fact About Me
I’m a vegan at home. When I go out to eat, it’s a cheese extravaganza! I use cream in my coffee! But at home, we try to stick to no animal products.
Three- What I’m Grateful For This Month
I’m grateful that my animals are currently all healthy. I’m grateful that I get along with my sister-in-law and her husband, and that we have our annual “Christmas” celebration every January. I’m grateful for my fireplace and stereo, which make for a cozy and wonderful reading experience. I’m grateful that my house is finally unpacked and organized.
Four- When I Wasn’t Reading
This month, I was mostly cleaning up and organizing my house, or going on walks with my dog. This past week we had our annual “Christmas” celebration, and we were playing board games and laughing a lot. I went to my first hockey game, Texas Stars vs. the San Jose Barracudas. I loved it, and got to see the home team win in overtime.
Five- Favorite Picture This Month
Our very patient 17 year old kitty let us line up Exploding Kittens cards on her. I guess she wanted to play too!
