"The Strangely Beautiful" tales of my life...




So, there's this author from my area who just got published, and her book, The Strangely Beautiful Tale of Miss Percy Parker, just came out. Her name is Leanna Renee Hieber. She has a blog here on blogspot (which I am following), but my main point is that she's having a signing on Friday, September 25th! I'm so excited and I really hope I can go! But seriously, where I am...you never think that you could get anywhere. We're just in a state that's like that. But the fact that she made it, that she published, that's just so inspiring to me.

On another note, I've discovered that I should NEVER flat-iron my hair when I'm barley awake. I accidentally pinched my earlobe with the flat-iron at 340 degrees! OUCH! My ear is red and it hurts! I also have a cold, which my brother was convinced was Swine Flu, but--Good news!-it's not! I think I'm almost done with it...

In writing news, I'm hard (define hard...) at work on revisions, and so far they're going very well! I've had issues on the preface, but I'm on the lines of a winner. (Get the pun? Lines...like lines I write...yes, I'm that special.)

In reading news, I've finished Blood Promise which I'm sad about because now I want the next book. I started reading As You Wish last Saturday--which I then finished Sunday afternoon. Yes, it's that good. Seriously readers, GO READ AYW BY JACKSON PEARCE--RIGHT NOW!! SERIOUSLY NOW!

Oh! And guess what?!? I finally got my bus time changed so now I can sleep until 5:40 so I can catch the bus at 6:40. Yes, so it's only 40 minutes difference, but hey, that's 40 more minutes I get to sleep. See what I mean?

Well, I think I'm going to dinner. Have a wonderful and blessed day!

With eternal love and blessings,
Officially Inspired
