Wow, is it just me or did the last year pass in the blink of an eye?!
In 2011, I had one new release and moved into a brand-spanking-new house. Normally I would think that qualified as a pretty good year, but since my NaNo bombed and I didn't finish a book before year's end, I'm a little bummed. I'll have to double up in 2012. Luckily January is always my biggest writing month, and I've already got all my filing done, old files moved and new files made, so I should be able to bury myself in Amorous Overnight until it's finished. Wish me luck!
Our Christmas was wonderful, if a bit brown. It's been so warm here this year! There's not a single flake of snow on the ground, and I haven't been able to use my deck for a spare freezer, as I'd planned to. *grin* Because of extensive renovations at my mother-in-law's house, I wound up hosting my husband's family Christmas party, which was incredibly stressful because I'm just not a party person (not to mention I'm not very organized). And yet it turned out to be quite a lot of fun, and I had the whole house cleaned up within an hour of everyone leaving. Hopefully my turn to host won't roll around again for another two or three years.
My best Christmas present this year, I think, was the Kindle I received from a very dear friend. It was a complete surprise -- my first e-reader, believe it or not! I've always just used the Kindle for PC application on my laptop, but it's not very handy to slip in my purse when I leave to pick up the kids after school so I'd actually been thinking about getting a Kindle. I've bought more Kindle books in the last week than I bought all last year. Oops. *slaps own hands* Must stop that--I've got writing to do!
Speaking of which, I won't be updating this page again until I can announce that I've finished a book. Seriously. I mean it. I refuse to let January expire without an alien "The End", so send all your deep concentration vibes my way!
Oh, and I've got a new contest up, so be sure and check out my contest page!
Wishing you all a happy and prosperous new year,
Robin
