Books Books Everywhere But No Time Left To Read

I’m still slogging through my story for the hot comfort anthology, The Shape of a Heart.

The good news is that it has to be finished in a week. And the bad news is that it has to be finished in a week. Lol!

But the writing isn’t going too bad. Thank the FSM!

Actually, now that my wonderful CPs helped me figure out how to make my one hero more sympathetic and likable, I am writing along at a decent clip and creating scenes that are, mostly anyway, keepers.

The down side of all this — isn’t there always a down side? — is that I haven’t read anything besides my own writing in weeks and it’s making me crazy! Arg!

Now understand that for the past blah blah number of decades, since I learned how to read and discovered libraries, I have been an avid reader of all kinds of books. Thank the FSM (I seem to be doing that a lot lately) for ebooks or my TBR pile would have taken over the house by now. And we live in a big house. *g*

Because my shortage of reading time has not, in any way shape or form, curtailed my book buying. Oh no. Perish the thought.

I can think of three books that I bought in the last month that I haven’t opened let alone read. And those are just the three that come immediately to mind. I’m sure there are others.

I can’t wait till I get this story turned into my editor on the fifteenth. I’m going on a week long, at least, reading jag just to refill the well.

Because I miss my books!
