Well, I am still chugging along on my books. My main focus is How To Be A Woman by Caitlin Moran since that is our group read for the Our Shared Shelf group on Goodreads. I will be honest and say that it is proving difficult to get through this book. I am not saying it's a bad book at all. I am not far enough along to be able to judge the book at all yet. It's proving hard simply because it is non fiction and, to me, that's not exactly "fun" reading. It is something I want to learn more about for sure which is why I am still going on with it but, I just can't seem to fight this........ block, that keeps me wanting to put this book down and pick up my YA books again. I honestly wonder if this is all because I am still kind of in a reading slump. The only time I have had this much trouble is when I had hated a book and like I just said before, I am not far enough in to determine if I hate the book or not so, that's not it. Frustrating but, I will get there!
Besides that, we have been experiencing some absolutely CRAZY weather! Anyone else having crazy weather where your from? We have gone from sunny and high 50s temps to blizzard like conditions and 30s temps in a matter of 24 hours! Luckily the ground was too warm so none of the snow stuck but the weather has been going back and forth like this for the last couple of weeks and my allergies and sinuses are just going haywire because of it.
Today it is cold and rainy. Tomorrow its supposed to be about the same temperature wise but we are getting a wintry mix. Oh joy. I can't wait for it to warm up again. Only a few more days of this crap! Cold and rainy weather seems to depress me a lot. Which isn't helping me at all while I am trying to get some motivation to get shit done. I need to finish the books I am reading and I also need to get some writing done. Which brings me to another of the many things I have going on right now....
I am doing Camp NaNoWriMo, which is going on all this month. I am just working on my story that I did for NaNo back in November. It isn't finished yet and at this rate, it still wont be finished this month. For all I know though, it wouldn't have been to begin with. I honestly think that there is probably a lot more that could happen in this story and I just don't know where it's going to go yet. I am trying to just let the story flow but, I am not happy with it thus far. It has potential but, I think I am going to rewrite it using the Three Act Structure that I saw another book and writing lover use. It sounds like something that would work really well for me so I want to give it a shot whether it is for this story or another one I have in mind. I will just have to wait and see.
Well, that's all I for now. I will talk to you all again soon!
Thanks for reading!!!!
