This is a place for me to write out my thoughts on the books that I’ve read as well as another place for me to put out my own writing.

I’ve been reading but I haven’t finished a book yet. But I’ve started reading Winnie-the-Pooh to annotate for my niece.

I just got notified that my copy of “Iron Flames” is being prepared for shipping! Hoping it helps me get out of my reading slump!

What are some of your favorite books to read or that you’ve read? I’m a mood reader and sometimes it’s hard to tell what I’m in the mood to read.

This past weekend one of the book stores that is near me was hosting a book festival, their first one they’ve held, being that they have only been opened for a little over a year, but they’re hoping to make it a yearly thing. I went to it and I really enjoyed myself, there was a bunch of local authors there to promote their books, I bought two different books from two different authors, they signed them for me I also got cards from various different authors to check out more of their works. There were so many different types of authors there that I did not expect, being from where I am there was a ton more smutty writers there than I thought there would be. All types it seemed like too. Regular romance, fantasy, slightly darker themes, as well as SyFy. But there were books for everyone, they had children’s authors, religious authors and more. There were also people who set up who sold book related merchandise as well as two local friends who have a book podcast where they sit down each week and talk about the books they’ve read.

Once I finish the books that I got from the book festival I will let you know my thoughts as well as the titles of the books and their authors and where you can find your copies of the books.

Last year I read 100 books, and this year I have struggled to read just over 30 books from January to October. I’m hoping that by putting my thoughts out there for other people to read, like there is someone who cares about my thoughts about the books that I’m reading that this will make me wants to read more. Maybe this will gain at least a few followers and maybe it will encourage them to read as well, maybe we will be helping each other out.
