What’s New Around Here? (September Edition)

WHAT I’M UP TO: Things are a bit strange right now. My mother isn’t doing well health-wise. I’m currently in her home, helping take care of things around the house, visiting her in her assisted living home, and hanging out with my sister’s family. It’s kind of a bizarre mix of lots of work interspersed with more alone time than I’ve had in years.

WHAT I’M WRITING: I’m bopping around between a number of series I’m working on, which means I’m moving around the genres like it’s a buffet…sci-fi romance and then paranormal romance and then omegaverse. It may end up breaking my brain, but for the moment, I like it.

WHAT I’M READING: I’m steadily going through my KU TBR. Sadly, a bunch of books I’ve been waiting on have been delayed, but as a writer myself, I completely understand.

WHAT I’M WATCHING: I’m still working my way through Call the Midwife. While visiting my mom, I got her into it, and the brat has bolted ahead of me. I have to keep reminding her not to give me spoilers.

WHAT I’M LISTENING TO: I’m reliving my youth…The Cure, The Cranberries, and Billy Idol. I should listen to Weezer. I’m going to their concert next month. I’M SO EXCITED!!!!!
