What's Up Wednesday

What's Up Wednesday is a weekly meme geared toward readers and writers, allowing us to touch base with blog friends and let them know what's up, put on by Jamie Morrow and Erin Funk. If you'd like to join click on the links above!

What I'm Reading:
In The Shadow of Blackbirds is not what I expected. It's better. Beautiful withlush writing, an eerie feel I can't seem to shake. I'm loving it.

What I'm Writing:
 I didn't quite make it to 45k. Got way too distracted with Sun Vs. Snow to give proper attention to my new WIP. But I'm at 40k and pretty happy about it. Hoping I get to the 45k this week. It might be asking for a lot since we have guests in town ALL WEEK. Then I heard about this thing called Writer Recharge, hosted by Katy Upperman, Alison Miller, Liz Parker, Elodie Nowadzkij, and Sarah Biren. You guy should join in!

What Inspires Me Right Now:
Most of you know I was lucky enough to get pick for Sun Vs. Snow. Well, the agent round is over and...I got five requests! I'm so excited! Not only was this a confidence booster, but getting those requests inspire me so much right now. They've inspired me to keep going, to push myself, and made me realize I'm on the right path.

What Else I've Been Up To:
Today is my second oldest's sixth birthday! I can't believe it. I'm so glad to have him in my life. Can't stress enough how much I love my kids. They grow up too fast!
