♥ In stark contrast to last week, my reading experience this week was fantastic. I read six books with grades ranging from ‘A-’ to ‘C’, but most were in the ‘B’ range. My favourite was the second book in P.B. Ryan’s Nell Sweeney mystery series, Murder in a Mill Town.
♥ Frankly, my writing for the Book in 3 Months Challenge sucked. I have no tolerance for the Muse theory. If I waited for inspiration to hit, I’d never finish a book. The only thing which works for me is the old butt-in-chair routine. However, there are days when my writing flows, and days when meeting my word count goal is a struggle. I had four bad writing days in a row this week. I’m now at 32K, which is 3K less than I should have written. Here’s hoping next week is better in terms of quantity and quality.
♥ Keishon’s Yet Another Crime Fiction Blog is going from strength to strength. If you’re a fan of mystery novels, be sure to check it out.
♥ Once again, I’m updating my blog roll. I’ve added two that I was convinced I already had on there but obviously did not. Book Chick City specialises in reviews of speculative fiction but she’s slowly being brought over to the Dark Side of romance reading. Lynette’s Two Cents cracks me up, especially her notes on reading J.R. Ward’s Lover Mine.

Hehe – I sure am! I’m having SO much fun reading romance!
I’ve been loving Keishon’s website, too. I’ve found all sorts of great book recommendations over there.
@Book Chick City: See, you’ve gone over to the Dark Side!
@Lynn Spencer: Agreed. Keishon’s mystery reviews were always my favourite part of her other blog. She’s recommended several authors I’ve loved.
