Fifty Shades of Busy

After having been away from blogging for ages, I am aiming to creative write at least once  a week.  Is it a New Year goal? No, those involve sugar intake (6tsps) and excercise (30 minutes a day).  But it is something I realized I missed lately.

So, I decided to free write on a story I was working on and then post a new blog.

So, what have I been up to lately.  Well, I have two part-time gigs, one as a Teen Librarian and the other as a YA & Reference Librarian.  Now that grad school is over (yay Master degree!)  I find myself busy as ever.  In addition to making time for new releases on Spotify and, now, aiming to write at least 100 words a day, I spend my week with my boyfriend (we're hitting 9 months this Saturday), irregularly attending author signings, bowling or playing trivia with friends (have you tried TriviaCrack?), and making time for Skyping with my family.  It is a full and fulfilling life.  

 I am a moderator for two- soon to be three- Goodreads groups.  Two of which have "Puzzles" in the title thanks to a love (or perhaps missing?) or HIMYM.  One of the groups aims to read one YA, one adult fiction, and one non-fiction per month.  And in my spare time- hahaha- I try to keep up with the trends in my profession.

So much has happened in the months since I last posted that I cannot possibly re-cap it all in one post.  So, I shall tell you stories of the last few months as I move ahead.  For now, I will share what I am currently reading:

I just finished Fifty Shades of Grey.  You can see my review here.

I am about to start : These Broken Stars by Amie Kaufman, Darkest Part of the Forest by Holly Black, & a non-fiction.  Which I shall decide upon tomorow.
