Writerly Weekend
It’s almost time for NaNoWriMo and I’ll be doing it again this year. (Last year I took a break.) This past weekend was full of writerly activities to help get me pumped for it.

All Hallow’s Read
Before yesterday I hadn’t heard of All Hallow’s Read. What is it? The week before Halloween or Halloween night give someone you love a scary book. Neil Gaiman proposed this holiday two years ago.

Thurber House Evening with Authors – Chris Cleave
My review of Little Bee is very short and understated. There was so much to talk about but I was afraid I would spill some beans. 🙂 Everyone I recommended the book to loved it. It was a no brainer for me to get a ticket to the Thurber House Evening with Authors featuring Chris… Continue reading Thurber House Evening with Authors – Chris Cleave
