Book Club, Goodreads and other news.

I'm in a really good mood today. I joined the Bloggers Unite Book Club. (Blog Here and Goodreads Group Here) Since I started at the end of the month, I will begin reading the February selection of Deuces Wild by Jean Holloway. It's book three in the Deck of Cardz series, so you know what that means. I need to read book one and two, and that turns into a bookstore spree! Yay, baby! I also have to buy a copy of The Second Virgin Birth by Tommy Taylor.   You can pick up a copy from Amazon.  Hopefully I can snag them this weekend, but it may have to wait until next week. :(

I also joined the 2011 Reading Challenge on Goodreads. My goal is to read 100 books this year, if not more. The Bloggers Unite Book Club and The Stephen King Library will definitely help towards this goal. Then of course,  I have loads of books waiting on my TBR list, and hopefully I will knock some of those out this year. I have some e-books waiting for me to read, but I have to admit, It's not the same. One reason might be that I have the apps on my phone, and not on a Kindle, or other eReader. I will eventually have to get one, just not sure which kind. Which one do you use?

Well, I must close this little post for the night. It's late and I'm tired, but what else is new? I will post tomorrow for the ROW80 check in, so I will see you then. I hope that you had a wonderful day and a peaceful night. Until tomorrow, good night.

Row80 Update and Reading News

So, today I didn't actually get any writing done, but I did go over First Draft in 30 Days. I printed up the worksheets, as well as getting  Liquid Story Binder in tune. I can't wait to get started. It may be just what I need. Tomorrow, or maybe after this post, I will write, and write, and write! I hope everyone is able to fulfill there goals. Remember that you can always tweak them if necessary. Keep up the great work. :)

I have some new reading materials that came in. First, my Writers Digest came in! It's great coming home and finding sitting on my kitchen table waiting for me. Interview with Nicholas Sparks made the cover, and I look forward to reading it. I love his works, but I don't like that he doesn't embrace the romance aspect of his books. Hell, even Stephen King is a member of the RWA.

Speaking of The King, I joined The Stephen King Library last week, and received my first shipment of books on Saturday. I just finished his book On Writing, and I have never loved a book so much in my life. He stays honest throughout, and I felt that I was able to get to know him, at least on some level. I will take his advice to heart, and will read that book over and over.

Back to the delivery. :) The first in the series is Full Dark, No Stars, and I'm reading that one now. It's a compilation, and I'm still on the first story, and woh!! I had the option to add on a book for $4.99, so naturally I had no choice but to do so. I chose Under the Dome. I can't wait to begin.

Well, I have checked in and updated. (I at least accomplished that goal!) I think that I will just wait until tomorrow to write, for I can't keep from yawning. Have a wonderful night.
