I haven't written a blog post in a few days, not that very many people are reading anyway ;-) Things have been so busy for me lately. My oldest daughter turned nine yesterday. Nine, people! Considering I was 19 when I had her, her turning nine makes me feel old. She's in third grade and LOVES to read. L-O-V-E-S to read. She's reading books that are above her reading level, which makes me so happy because I was the same way when I was her age. I've loved to read for as long as I can remember. I always had a book in my hand, and she's the same way. She's such a great kid and she's nine.
I've also been working quite a bit more at my day job and today I just acquired a second day job, so I will be one busy bee, but the money will be nice. I haven't been letting all of this cut into my writing time, though. I am creeping up on the half-way point of my goal and every day that I write I watch in amazement as the 'words written' total and the 'words remaining' total on my counter get closer and closer together and, before long, the 'words written' total is going to surpass the 'words remaining' total. Keep watching. You'll see. :-)
I'm still looking for book recommendations btw. See my previous post.
One more thing, I would LOVE if I had more blog followers if only to make me feel a little less like a loser. ;-)
What counter do you use? I like the detail in that one.

ReplyDeleteI was just sure that my children would be avid readers, just like my husband and I. I've been so devistated that they weren't that interested in learning to read, let alone reading for fun. But finally my nine year old is starting to learn that reading can be fun. Hopefully, they catch on to how much it rocks lol
