I'm Participating in a Read-a-Thon

So this year I entered the Goodreads 2011 Reading Challenge to read 30 books this year. I was hoping to maybe exceed my goal but as it turns out . . . it didn't turn out that way.
I'm two books behind, so in hopes of reaching my goal, I am joining my friends Enna Isilee of Squeaky Books in her "Oh-my-word-the-year-is-over-and-I-haven't-reached-my-goal" Read-A-Thon.


Princess of the Midnight Ball Crossed A Dog's Purpose

Today = A Week

Well, it's the 7th of December. So I guess this would be an exact week since my last post. Nothing much to say, I'm working a little on one of my new ideas for a story.
