I am currently working on my graduating thesis for Arizona State University. For my thesis I must find a better way for new authors to break into the fictional book market. I hope to discover this by contributing to the book community.
Bookish Fast Fact:
Harry Potter!
The plants in HP are based off a real book called Culpeper's Complete Herbal. She used the "witchy" ones
Contracts are signed!
A chapter from my upcoming novel, "The Phoenix Cycle" will be used as the example for modern stoic philosophy for a book that will cover the history, development, psychology, and modern day use of stoic philosophy. My chapter will be featured in the modern philosophy section.
The book is being written/published by philosophy professors and authors from University of Exeter, Birbeck University, and The Queen Mary University in London.

I heard about this little horror competition.
I don't write horror at all but I thought it'd be fun seeing as I only have to write 2 sentences.
Here are my creepy entries:
"I was awoken by an angry knock at my bedroom door. I live alone."
"My 7 year old daughter won't stop screaming in the middle of the night. I keep burying her deeper and deeper each time, but she just screams louder."
"I really hate wasting food. So I fed the rest of the fat bastard to the dogs before he went bad."
Have fun sleeping y'all! :)
Well I've been incredibly busy with my book thesis and figuring out my life post college.
But I feel the end is near and the questions are finally being answered.
So with caution I say, "Hello again booklikes. My good old friend."
Over 160 people have taken my survey about book blogger preferences!!!!
My thesis is getting some real credible data behind it!!!
People may have to actually take it seriously....uh oh
Please take it if you're a person who blogs about books/posts book reviews online :)
