Goodreads, Under the Dome

Yes, I've been slacking off. So first, here is the link to  my most recent Sanford News column from almost two weeks ago.

I've been doing a lot of writing on Rock Star, so that's exciting. The goal was to have the first draft finished by the end of June. It is almost the end of June, so I am revising that goal to the end of July. I knew it started with a J.

I'm trying to start an author page on Goodreads. I have no idea if that will help with sales, but I'll give it a shot. I'd completely forgotten about that site, I'm a member but I really don't use it enough to know what I'm doing. Maybe that will change.

I just finished reading "Echo Park", by Michael Connelly. It's the first book I've read by him and I liked it. I have to say, though, that it seemed like a hundred other crime thriller books out there. But it was good, well written with a little twist at the end. I wanted nothing I really had to think about while I read, so it was perfect. I started reading "The Bonfire of the Vanities" today.

Tonight is the first episode of "Under the Dome", based on Stephen King's book. I rarely watch television - Psych and Justified are the only shows I watch, unless you count old episodes of Batman - but I'm going to give this one a shot because I really enjoyed the book. I hope I don't forget and miss it, but I'm sure it will be available to watch online if I do. The beauty of the internet.

It is really hot out there, about 95. After all the cold weather we've had, I'll take it. And the thunderstorms yesterday, wow. Of course, it helps that we have central air.
