In My Mailbox & Weekly Wrap Up

First off, I am going to do a quick weekly wrap up post and just combine it with IMM.

I started a new novel a few weeks ago- it is flying along. I finished chapters 5 and 6 at work yesterday in my down time and have a good 4 pages of chapter 7 done today. I've gotten a ton plotted and planned on it as well- I am so excited for this one! I am totally in love my main guy.... sigh....

My book forum officially opens tomorrow, featuring Break by Hannah Moskowitz. The boards will open at or around noon CST, mostly whenever I can drag my butt out of bed to be honest. Hannah herself just might be stalking the boards to see what we have to say which gives me warm and fuzzies. I am also working on contacting authors of the books scheduled for Feb and March to see if they can do an interview here at my blog and/or pop on the forum during their book's week. I am going to start doing my IMM post on Saturday's now so I can devote Sundays to the correlation between my blog and my forum. I will be hosting a Mr. Linky every Sunday for my forum members as well as any other blogger who wants to link their review of whatever book(s) are being featured that particular week. If you want to get in on the fun, go here and get registered and start looking at the schedules.

Otherwise, I had a decent week. My newest novel, like I said, is flying along and I read 5 books this week (2 reviews yet to come). Now... onto IMM. =D

IMM is a snazzy meme hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren.

That was my week. =) Yep, I'm feeling pretty darn good about it and am eager to get started on many of these. I keep telling myself I am going to stop buying so many books but... so far... I fail. Ah well. There's still a roof of my head and food in my stomach. And Toby is still spoiled. He just has to work for his keep by posing- I think he's getting sick of it.
