Here's to a New Blog

So, this blog was partly born out of the multiple rejections from publishers I received via Netgalley today when I asked to receive an ARC of a bunch of novels (especially ones that were from a Christian book publisher--that really stung!), and partly spurred on by my friend Amber's urging that I write down actual reviews on books I read instead of just rating them on Goodreads. (But I mean, seriously. Ain't nobody got time fo' dat.)

I have no idea whether I'll stick to this or not, or even if what I'm writing right now is comprehensible. I'll probably wake up in the morning, groan, hit my forehead, and say, "Teresa, what the heck were you thinking when you made this? What is wrong with you? Go back to Ellis and just keep trying to buy his hat and wait for summer and Gingie to come!"

But, right now it's 12:29 A.M. and even though I really should sleep, I won't, because I procrastinated my projects in science all day and I need to finish them tonight. Right now, I couldn't really care less, so in my mind I'm going to stick with this, at least for a little while. Because, geez, I already have a lot of other things going on in my life that I keep forgetting to do.

ARE YOU HAPPY NOW, PUBLISHERS? ARE YOU? ARE YOU?

Here's to a new beginning! How hard can it be to write a book review?

(By the way, happy May 15th!)

  1. It just occurred to me that for publishers to want an "established" book review blog, I'd have to also have readers...
