I want to one day become a published author. Big dream, right? Well, they say that one of the things writers are supposed to do if they want to be published is blog. "Sigh" Fine.

I've decided I will try to share the more interesting aspects of my life in this blog. And, since I am an avid YA reader, I may be tempted to give my opinion on a book or two. Someone told me I should read at least 100 books in the genre I'm writing in. Made sense to me. So--I've been keeping track of the books I've read since Christmas 2008 and am up to b00k seventy eight. I'm also taking little notes on them. It does help with the writing process I think.

I ask my readers to please forgive me for my dyslexic tendencies. As a writer, I realize how important grammar and punctuation is. My husband proofs the work I send in to publishers. This blog is without that aide.
