Goodbye August

August like took forever. But at the same time, sped by quickly. At the same time. August was a hyperbole and an anomaly. Yeah...

Just like 2019, I wanted to make some resolutions and (try to) stick to them. As a reminder, here were my updated resolutions.


2020 Resolutions:

     (1) Write [almost] every day

     (2) Don't stop reading

     (3) Completesomething (e.g. a manuscript)

     (4) Share love of books/writing
     (5) Be kinder to myself

(1) Not every day. Not every other day. Probably not even half of the days. But some day, yeah, I succeeded in writing/brainstorming/editing/planning/plotting by Captain Hook piece. 

(2) Books read this month: 7. And like three halves (started two books and abandoned them for the time being--starting a book right after I post this).

(3) Two Moves Ahead manuscript still just chilling, waiting for people to read it, waiting for me to do research to find an agent, waiting in general.

(4) Posts this month (including this one): 10.

(5) Feeling good about myself most days. Trying to make myself not hate my body some days. Other days I'm fine with how I look. Definitely gained weight, lost some, gained it back. Started to exercise again, got a cold, quit. Trying over again today/tomorrow/September (no more stress eating, then?) 

Anyone still holding onto their resolutions?

Any exciting September reads?
Anything I should check out?
