Sheila's Guests and Reviews

http://katherinescorner.com At ten I dreamed perhaps I'd be a teen, and double figures not enough to comfort me. At twenty, now I'd learned somehow those teen years really couldn't be all they're cracked up to be. At thirty, married, kids and harried, chasing through the years and tears that trucked and parried me... At forty life begins, they said so leave behind the things , and overhead the airplane bins fall open. Fifty, scared and thrifty. Coming soon, retirement, nifty dream I thought, but how? And sixty's dark desire to live again won't comfort me. At ten pm I guess I'll dream, and then... I was meant to write a blogpost about how I feel, blogging at that certain (getting ever more certain) age. But then I wrote a poem about how I feel as that certain (scary) age approaches, so I hope that's okay. As to how I feel about blogging, can someone please tell me why hours as well as clothes ...

I'm still reading new books and writing new reviews and racking up points, but I do seem to be way way behind the other Between the Lines challengers. Still, maybe I'll get my 100-point badge before the end of the month. I've posted some more book reviews on gather , and not got around to posting any elsewhere yet. (Searches desk for that round tuit.) The Vampire's Curse , by Cristiophe McFarland On Basilisk Station , by David Weber Living Dead in Dallas , and Club Dead by Charlaine Harris And I've several more books that I'm reading and plan to review. As for the writing though - is it the weather? the housework? the sudden growth of early weeds in the yard? (Can you tell what I spend yesterday doing?) I think I need a writing challenge to get me back to my novels, but maybe the trick is to remember to challenge myself. Still, I have written some drabbles

Remember that dream of mine, that I might one day, maybe, get organized? I bought Snowflake Pro when it was first released (got a super super price deal) to organize my writing. Meanwhile I'm still looking for ways to organize submissions, life, the universe etc. And I've joined the Between the Lines Reading Challenge for 2010 , to give me a nice set of guidelines for tracking my reading. Today I posted my first book review of the year: The Shaman's Bones, by James D. Doss . I've decided to make my Gather page my primary book review site, but I'll spread reviews around the other sites later (when my beloved "round tuit" gets into the action). I'm supposed to read 40 books by authors I've not read before, so this is number 1. 20 books by favorites--I expect I'll manage that. 3 or more new genres might be challenging; I'm wondering if I can claim a single-volume paperback novella as a genre, since that's what I'm reading at the mome...
