Monday Mishmash is a weekly meme sharing your thoughts and happenings. You just grab a button and create your post. Sure I guess I write it differently from most but moving on....
1. Freelance Work is a go and I'm working with one regular customer and two new ones. I'm excited since one of the new ones wants to do a major project. We'll see but if they decide to continue I'll be getting some good bank. Never bad for a freelancer.
2. I am very excited after getting thirteen new books for my kindle. I helped an author last week and in return was given an Amazon Gift Card. The books I got include: The Undead Road by David Power King (yup paid full price but isn't our lovely David worth it), Dissilution by J.L. Campbell, Midwife to Destiny (Destiny African Romance #1) (Destiny African Romance Series) by Nana Prah and Dracul (Dragon Eye Book 5) by Finley Aaron.
3. Doing a book promo this week for a blog tour. Keep an eye out this week to find out which book.
4. Right now I am reading Truthwitch by Susan Dennard which arrived last week via my mailman.
Trust me guys this book is really good and the author knows how to create a very intriguing world.
What will I tell you? Bloodwitches are scary as shit, if that became real the idea of zombies (not a hoard) might actually sound appealing. Plus I now have more paperback pretties and that is always a good thing.
See you guys tomorrow with my latest book review. Thanks for stopping by.
Glad you got new clients!
ReplyDeleteThirteen books is a lot. You won't lack for reading material.
Thanks Alex and trust me my room is three quarters library. There is never a lack of reading material. :)
DeleteGreat news on the freelancing front, a little work can lead to lots of work which is good for your bank account. Enjoy your books, I bought a few this weekend too. I will need to slow down and read some.
ReplyDeleteI buy more books faster than I can read them too Ann.
DeleteLol @ the frozen elf on the shelf!! Elsa's got the right idea, those things are creepy....
ReplyDeleteWhat makes me laugh is the friendly intention they were made with. At first I was not crept out but as I thought about I realized...that thing aint hanging on my shelf!
DeleteAwesome you have new clients and projects. Looks like you got some great books too.
ReplyDeleteThanks Nat.
DeleteTruthwitch sounds like my kind of book. Thanks for the recommendation. And YAY for your clients! :)
ReplyDeleteTruthWitch is awesome. Yay indeed.
DeleteYou're a busy woman! Congratulations on the gift card. I can't wait to read your reviews.
ReplyDeleteBusy is good. Thanks Mike.
DeleteCongrats on the freelance work and yay for books!
ReplyDeleteThank you Kelly! Books are awesome.
DeleteHope the freelance work keeps coming in.
ReplyDeleteI love that image of Elsa and the frozen elf.
Thanks Diane. Wow that image of Elsa and that darn elf is very popular in the comments. :)
DeleteOh my goodness, 13 new books! Sounds like it's going to be a great couple of weeks for you. Love it.
ReplyDeleteIt is always fun to get new books so yay for that! Glad you are loving Truthwitch too, I've seen some great reviews for it.
ReplyDeleteYes, David is totally worth it.
ReplyDeleteBest of luck with the freelance cash!
Of course he is. We writers gotta get that dough...when we can. ;)
DeleteHey, Sheena. Glad the work is coming in steadily. Thanks for spending your money with me. I'll be hitting you up shortly re the A-Z.
ReplyDeleteHi Joy. Of course, I know it's money well spent. Ready to help however I can. *Salutes*
DeleteI've read The Undead Road and really enjoyed it. Susan Dennard is a delight. She has a process for writing a one-page synopsis that I use for plotting (what little of it I do). :D
ReplyDeleteI started out with just one client and now I'm a full-time freelancer. It's a NICE way to make a living. We all know fiction isn't going to pay the bills...but to be able to write all day is the dream. I'd love to write fiction 100 percent but maybe the challenge of writing about a variety of topics keeps it fresh for me.
ReplyDeleteYay for getting some work! And for that author giving you an Amazon gift card! YAY FOR BOOK GIFT CARDS! They are the best! And OMG that Elf on the Shelf/Elsa pic! So funny! I haven't read Truthwitch yet but it sounds really good! Hope you have a great rest of your week!
