Rainy Days and Reading

Whenever it rains, I always find myself saying that I wish I was home on the couch with a cuppa tea and a good book. Do you do say the same thing?

Lately, I've been picking very long books to read (I'm on the last novel in the Game of Thrones series, Dance with Dragons A Dance With Dragons ), which means they're part of my life for a long time. And that's fine. I enjoy it. But sometimes I think about what it's going to feel like when I finish, and I find that actually slows me down. I want to stay with these characters for a lot longer.

My own writing: I'm probably two or three chapters from the end of my novel, so I've begun testing the waters and seeing if there are agents/editors out there who are interested in the book. Sometimes I think I should just relax and wait until it's completely done, but it's like Christmas. I want to see whether the package is a special one that will be something people will want!

Hope your rainy days are filled with good books!
