Summer Goals (Awkward Turtle Version)

I know, I haven't blogged in forever. I am ashamed. Truly, truly ashamed. I'm not even going to make any excuses or promises right now.

However, I HAVE made goals for the summer, and I would like to share them:

Writing:
  • Finish the rough draft of "Batty Batty Bats," my current project which is awesome. I REALLY need to finish it this summer though, because it's eating my brain, and I don't want it eating my brain when Nanowrimo rolls around.
  • Write three more short stories for the Unholy Trinity short story challenge. I actually need to write these in the next....four days. No biggie.
Reading:
  • Catch up on the Wheel of Time series. This means I need to read The Gathering Storm and Towers of Midnight. They're both like 800 pages long.
  • read many, many many more books. But I don't want to specify which ones, cuz I'll never stick to it. Let's say 20 total.
  • Finish Tolkien: A Biography and The Idylls of the King
  • I also really want to reread Fruits Basket, Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle, and Death Note. Does that make me a bad person? :/
I hope you are all doing well! I'm sorry I've been so inactive. Maybe I will be strong and do some reading challenge updates here soon?

If you would like to stalk me thoroughly, I spend a lot of time here: http://bahnree.tumblr.com/ and here: http://twitter.com/#!/bahnree I occasionally talk about books and writing. ^_^

Hello! I just dropped by from Purple Hat's blog, and decided that making a book recommendation was important enough to risk looking super creepy.
May I suggest "The Way of Kings"? It's by the author that finished Wheel of Time. I came across it a few days ago and was curious to see how closely his writing style matched. I just finished it and liked it a lot!
