Books Read
I had another crazy good reading month and knocked out a lot of stories! I even had a two week period where I couldn’t read as much because I was sleeping a lot thanks to pneumonia, and a con weekend that kept me busy! I hope to get back on the reading train once I recover physically.

Life and Other Things
March has been one of the busiest months of the year for me, besides the holiday season at the end of the year. I was also in bed sick for two straight weeks with pneumonia at the start of the month. When I recovered I had a crazy time catching up on all the work I missed and planning for both my children’s birthdays. It has been a wonderful month with family and friends that I very much needed after my bout of illness.
Then I capped off the month with this year’s Scares That Care AuthorCon V! By Sunday I was absolutely exhausted, my knees were swollen, and my legs felt like I had run a marathon. I definitely got my steps in and the workout was good. I seemed to catch a mild cold and extended my vacation one more day to let my body recover. Full recap post coming soon!

Scares That Care AuthorCon V
I’m not even going to recap the books I hauled here because it is an obscene amount. Between books I purchased and books and chapbooks I got for free it’s in the triple digits. Yes you read that right.
Next Month
Nothing much, other than knocking out some reading, catching up on writing reviews, and preparing the April new releases post for April 1st! My husband and I are also celebrating our six year anniversary today (yes it’s April 1st), but I’ll be back on track soon!
