What book(s) did you get under your tree? Or, which book(s) are you planning to purchase with your shiny new gift cards?

Past, present and future.

There is nothing like curling up with a good book on a rainy day.

All winter long I heard about kids having “snow days” at school. I have only lived in sunshine states (California, Florida and Arizona) so the idea of a “snow day” has never made sense to me. I can only recall school ever being cancelled once, when I was in college, due to a hurricane warning.

Last night it started to rain. And rain. And rain some more. This morning there was an email sent out saying schools were cancelled and to stay off the roads. It’s just a little rain, right? Wrong. Here is a quick look at the local freeways.

And now you understand why I’m not grocery shopping, going to the gym or doing any of those other things I should be doing. Instead I’m home reading. And loving it.

Today Proof Before You Publish turns 1!

When I started this adventure a year ago I had no idea what was in store for me. It’s been such a great first year and I’ve had the pleasure of working with some amazing authors. Here’s to hoping the next year is just as wonderful and thank you to everyone who has helped make Proof Before You Publish successful.

I just finished a sample edit for an author about WW II and it reminded me that I haven’t shared this meme yet.
