Update Thursday #88


Welcome to Update Thursday, my own personal meme of sorts where I post an update of the goings on at my blog, with reading and writing. Feel free to borrow the idea from me for your own bookish musings.

Reading...

Books I Finished:

~Nothing~

Books I'm reading:


City Of Bones by Cassandra Clare (-Goodreads-)
Among The Nameless Stars by Diana Peterfreund (-Goodreads-)
All The Broken Pieces by Cindi Madsen (-Goodreads-)


929 of 1026 E.E. Cummings poems finished (6 this week)

Writing...

~ If Only We ~ 41,983 ~
~ Before We Knew ~ 11, 449 ~
~ Whatever This Is ~ outlining ~
~ Under Enchanted Skies ~ 1,550/plotting ~
~ Beyond The Horizon ~ plotting ~
~ So I Thought ~ plotting ~
~ Hold Your Breath ~ plotting ~

The latest = Still low on progress, but I may have reached an epiphany on how to make the whole thing flow better. I quickly went through what I've written thus far and added in the notes I need to fix it when I finish. I'm hoping this will help motivate me to sit down and write more often so I can get finished soon (crossing fingers for end of 2012).

I keep coming up with more scenes for my new story idea. That thing is a gold mine. I can't wait to focus on that one. And share the details with you.

And I wrote a note in my phone at 1:42 a.m. Wednesday that had me rolling for about ten minutes straight. I would like to share it with you, but I'm thinking about putting it in a story someday. When I do, I'll let you know which line it is.

Until next time!

  1. I'm so eager to hear what this note you typed in your phone is. I hope you tell us one day.

    1. Sometimes I feel like I'm so evil when I tease, lol, but I promise I will tell you. I'm trying to figure out what story it could go in. :P

  2. I really want to know what you think of City of Bones. I didn't finish it because it's not really my thing but so many people love it!

    1. It's interesting so far, but not necessarily something I'm engrossed in. I'm only about 1/4-1/3 of the way through though. Maybe it will suck me in soon. :)

  3. You're hilarious. I think whenever we finally meet IRL, we'll do nothing but giggle like a pair of idiots since we both seem to lose it really easily lol. How are you liking City of Bones? I'm hoping to get to it early in the new year; I'd read it now but I need some short books so I can hopefully finish my GoodReads challenge. My update Thursday is back now too btw! And I'm going to try to reply to your email when I get back from the library this afternoon. <3

    1. I think we will be non-stop gigglers! We should watch a comedy movie together... we'd probably end up sprawled out on the floor rolling around laughing uncontrollably. City of Bones hasn't quite reeled me in completely yet, but I'm only so far in. There's a decent amount of action so far, and I'm sure that it will keep picking up. Yes! Finish the Goodreads challenge! I saw UT was back on your blog. :) And I will look forward to your email. :D
