    2018 Wrap-Up | November

    November 30, 2018 /

    This wrap-up is going to be quick, because every word I write here is one that doesn’t contribute to my NaNoWriMo word count. Plus, the books I did have time to read this month were in a word: disappointing. I did however, find the time to write a couple of posts outside of book reviews and NaNoWriMo 2018 Updates, so click here to check those out. Now, let’s get into this wrap-up.

    November 25, 2018 /

    Bricked In (Audiobook) Max Wannow I did not finish this book, for reasons I’ve laid out below. This is a non-spoiler book review, so if you are interested in checking out the book yourself, you can read my thoughts without worry.  Synopsis: Bricked In is a disgusting glimmer of self-recognition.

Neoba is a brick building with a population of 10,000. Within the walls is chaos and weirdness. Social…

    November 24, 2018 /

    Some quick thoughts about Week 3 of November coming to an end: YIKES! Am I dreaming? Am I having a nightmare? When was the last time I washed my hair? Is that REALLY my word count? Fuck! Keep reading if you’d like to know my more complete and formulated thoughts about November (and NaNoWriMo) being almost over.

With some travel and work already under her belt, she excels at her studies and is sent to Damascus to immerse herself in the language.

    November is now over halfway done, thus, we reached the halfway point for NaNoWriMo this past week. I am currently a bit behind on my word count, but after I’m done with this post I’m going to get some more writing in before the day is done; in other words, I have the time to catch up.
