Work spaces
My office decor and setup changes pretty frequently, but this was my view while writing LOVE SONGS. And it’s true about your dreams…if they don’t scare the crap out of you, they won’t be nearly as much fun to achieve!

2014 Reading List
I’m such a ravenous reader* my 2014 reading goals actually included limits as well. Unfortunately, I have to get actual work done June-September, so my reading goals were for October-May…and I may have been naughty and snuck in a few books during my black-out period. Can you blame me? My Goodreads Reading Challenge for the year was to read 52 books. Some of my favorites are listed below!
2014 TOTAL: 123 BOOKS
