So I know that I haven't done a genre challenge update since early October. OOPS. However, I have been hard at work trying to complete the challenge. I was feeling overwhelmed with trying to finish, but I'm thrilled because I will be finishing tonight!
This challenge has been pretty difficult at times, but I loved it. I'm glad I pushed myself to read some genres that aren't my go to genres. I'm pretty open as far as genres go, but I do get stuck in the same ones sometimes. So tonight I'm finishing my last book, no matter what, and then I will be done. WOOT WOOT!
Next year I'm hoping to take it a bit easier and not do a challenge like this. My goal next year will be to get back to blogging again regularly and to work on my writing regularly. Speaking of, if you're interested in poetry I started a new DeviantArt account and I posted a few of my poems there. Here's the link: AngelErin30
