December in Review

December, for me, was a slow month of regathering my life, my thoughts, my papers, and my time after NaNoWriMo. There were only 9 posts last months and 3 videos on my YouTube channel. So far January is looking like a better month for both blogging and videos!

To start of the month, I finished up my NaNoWriMo posts with announcing my win and explaining my plans for the month and my novel in "Winning NaNoWriMo and Where to go from there."

I also featured the book Scarlet Woods during a Release Day Blitz with YANovelReader and had a very interesting guest post from the author of Undertow about the "New Adult" genre, also through YANovelReader.

I talked about my life in "Coming Home" and "Dirt & Grime: Arkansas and Car Trouble." The latter of which is a new revival of a long deleted series of posts called "Dirt & Grime," about my life and the daily life boring things that don't really interest anyone but me.

I celebrated two holidays, the Solstice and Christmas, the latter with an awesome playlist!

Lastly, on the blog, I reviewed two books. The first was Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins, which received a 4 duck rating. The second was actually a part of another blog tour through YANovelReader in which I reviews His Black Wings, giving it a 3 duck rating.

The three videos I posted during December were a "return" video, the Random Shit Video 2.0, and the Rainbow Book Tag. I'm really glad to be back into doing videos and I hope to keep it up!

I hope December was a productive month for you and I look forward to many more posts and videos in January!
