The Read Harder Challenge
Hello friends. It’s nearing the end of 2018 which means a lot of plans for the New Year are starting to come together. So let’s talk about reading goals.
A Book Haul
Hi friends, I hop you had a great weekend. Since I was gone for about a month, I’m trying to catch up on blogs. So I figured it would be fun this week to talk about what I’ve recently purchased at Half Price and on the Kindle store.
Book and Writing Conference + A New Blog Series

August and September Bi-Monthly Goals
Hello everyone! It’s a semi-cold and rainy day here in the Midwest, and I wish I was curled up with a book and some tea. Sadly, it’s a work day, so I’ll be chained to my desk instead. But before I start another long work day, I’m going to take some time to lay down my goals for the next two months.

Some swear by the ease and speed of eBooks, while some can’t lose the spark of nostalgia and joy they get from holding a story in their hand. Clearly you haven’t read enough blogs just like this one, so here’s my take on the whole thing.

Bi-Monthly Goals: April and May
Now that I’ve got my personal projects (blog, book, etc.) up and running again, I thought it would be a good idea to set bi-monthly goals for myself. I think these will keep me from getting stuck in a rut or choosing to do other, time wasting things (I’m looking at you, YouTube) that stagnate the work I want to do. I want to post these here to create a little accountability for myself. It’s almost like if I tell the world what I want to do I will be more likely to make it happen.
