Monday Maunder: June 17, 2013


ON READING

Surprise, surprise!!  I am still reading Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell!!  I'm almost half done though, so that has to count for something!!

What are you reading?

ON BLOGGING

I finally wrapped up my tasks on Armchair BEA this last week!!  I also worked on a few tasks for Book Bloggers International.  Needless to say, I did not do much over here this last week, but I hope to change that this week.  Blogging will still be sparse until the beginning of August, but I will do what I can while I am mobile.

I have also been considering a Tumblr account.  I don't really want to add another thing to my list of things to do, but I thought it would be fun to also post my pictures from Instagram and to run in conjunction with my upcoming feature (being announced this week).  Before I sign up, however, I want to hear your thoughts.

Do you use Tumblr?  Why or why not?  Pros/cons?  How do you see if differently from other social media sites?

ON WRITING

Good news here!  I finally got all caught up on my freelance pieces this last week!!  As soon as I hear if and when they get published, I will keep you posted here!

My current freelance gig is locally-based, and I will be moving very soon to a completely different state.  I would love to explore more freelance options and plan to do so once I get settled.

Do you have any leads or recommendations on freelance opportunities?

ON LIFE

Let the chaos begin!!!  Two weeks from today, we will have moved into our new place and I will be hitting the road for a little trip with my kids.  Boxes are strewn around my house.  We are drastically down-sizing and getting rid of lots of furniture items.  I am ready for this new adventure to begin!!

I will finally be posting my new summer feature this week as well as finally posting my "plan" for the next year.  I really look forward to sharing these two pieces with you!!

How was your week?  Relaxing or chaotic?

  1. I posted about Writersrushin.com a few months back. I think they are still looking for writers. Enjoy your time. I'm starting my first draft, so you know what I'll be doing for the next couple months. ;)
