Fall Into Reading 2008!

Fall is here! Finally summer is over. If only all the bugs died on the first day of fall, I could be truly happy. Unfortunately, Tasha was telling horrifying tales of centipedes at supper today, so I know it can't be true. *sighs*

Okay, those are my history books. You could say I've gotten behind.... Yeah, you could say that. They aren't quite all up there yet. Because I'm upstairs and too lazy to go down to find out the rest of them. Most of them also don't have authors. I'll fix that. Swear. But I'm too tired tonight. You're lucky you're getting this. Anywho, continuing on...

And those are just for fun. You gotta have some of those, yeah? ;)

So much is happening this fall. I've got to figure out college stuff. I've got a job (!) and school. October 1st is the grand opening (does that term still apply if nothing technically opens?) of the Marcher Lord Press And NaNoWriMo! Yes, I'm already planning. I'm fairly sure what story I'm doing, and there's a good reason there's not many "fun" books on my list. (As if I needed any more books on that list anyway. *rolls eyes*) In November I am not reading any fiction 'cepting FIRST and history. A wise decision I think. It should free up some of my time for writing and get me caught up with history some. Wish me lots of luck.

Well, I'm gone. I've got today's history book to read and... I don't know, I have a list downstairs. Promise I'll neaten (is that a word?) this list up later this week, but for now.... *shrugs* it's here!

Happy Fall, all!
