The New Year Cometh

Wow that was quick!!! With Christmas over, new years in just over a day, where did it all go?
I feel this way every year, as if time is just whizzing by, and I need to take a moment to look back over the events that were the biggest.. so here goes…
2013 – in review
Finished up another school year in the spring.
Taught a round of summer school for students who needed a bit more help passing their state test. Now, for most of you I know that sounds a bit anticlimactic, but I assure you… from the teacher’s standpoint, it is the one part of the job I am truly going to miss – making a difference in some kid’s life, even if they don’t want you to or realize at this particular moment how important it really is.
A couple of weeks of summer vacation before class started.. oh yeah – and I wrote a book!!!
School started, chaos reigned, got my book published WHOOP WHOOP.. and I found out how much real publishers do for their authors =(
I wrote the second book – in for a penny, in for a pound, right?… wow that was fun!!!
Got busy working on advertising… publicity pushing is hard work… did I really sign up for this?
Thanksgiving break – now your talking!!!
A few more weeks of school in the semester – oh and they are releasing my second book. Yes, I really like this author thing =)
New grandbaby – and its A GIRL!!! Sweet hello little one, welcome to my madness =)
They released my second book – Christmas holiday –  I got to meet even more amazing authors and fans – OMG what will next year hold in store?
Only time will tell…

 

See my interview with Bridgette – up now WHOOP WHOOP
