Sunday Salon: Well, I seem to out of my reading slack!


Yes, you got it right! I finished two books last week and on my third! After a long slack, that is a POSITIVE! My total is 93 and I think I can reach 100. I am keeping my fingers crossed. But if I do not, that is okay too. I am on a self-enforced book buying ban, although I did cheat a bit by buying The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest by Stieg Larsson. 

Creativity wise, I am on a writing spree. My poetry is flowing. I discovered new poetry sites, and also sites which offer great prompts. That is another feather in my cap, this poetry writing!

I will write about my best reads of 2010 in the last week of the year. Not that I read much in the last four months! I deleted a lot f blogs from my google reader but I added more than I deleted. I am very thankful that my book blogger friends were supportive when I was down in the dumps and also encouraged me when I was on that reading slack. 

Right now, I better get back to reading. A crime fiction, that is! Wish me luck, so that I stick to it!

Happy day! I hate it when I'm not reading and enjoying a good book. Glad you are back in the saddle.

Happy Sunday! It is good to hear your writing is coming along so well. You can reach 100! I will be *so* close to hitting 500 books this year, but I am not pushing it to make that mark. I plan to enjoy my next two weeks as much as possible.

I don't consider myself to be in a slack, but I'll have well under 100 books read this year. Ten years ago it was well over 200. The difference? I didn't read blogs back then.

My goal was 50 and I did beat that, i'm on 57 right now so i'm pleased.

So glad your out of the rut :-)

BTW I bought Blood over Badge after seeing it on your blog, look forward to that one next year.
