I'm a Therapist, and My Patient is Going to be the Next School Shooter by Dr. Harper
Yeah, these originated on r/nosleep, but I happen to like r/nosleep, and my 2020 reading challenge on Goodreads is in some desperate need of some help (yeah, don't set your GR reading challenge at 340, for all of those who were wondering). 

For Darkness Shows the Stars by Diana Peterfreund
This is some Jane Austen book or whatever set in space as a young adult novel. I don't like Jane Austen or sci-fi, so this should be a fantastically inappropriate read for me. 

No Exit by Taylor Adams
I read the first few pages of this and it was just, an extremely realistic portrayal of losing control of a car in a snowstorm, which is pretty scary to someone in North Dakota in December, so it's gonna be good.

One More Sad Song by Aurora Dimitre
One boy, one girl, two hearts, their world, time goes by, secrets rise
The secret is that I wrote this book and it's not a secret, it's on the spine. 

Chain Letter 2 by Christopher Pike
This, alongside Whisper of Death is one of two teen horror books I read over and over again as an eight year old. The only thing I remember about this one is that my favorite character got burned to death. 

The Dracula Killer by Ray Biondi
hell yeah richard chase

What School Could Be
I have so many books about teaching and school now it is absolutely ridiculous.

Forgive Me, Leonard Peacock by Matthew Quick
School shooter book I think? I'm always down for a school shooter book.

Eat the Rich by Andrew Rivas
Heeeeere's cannibalism!

Wolf's Mate by Celia Kyle
A goodreads giveaway that the book wall gave me. 

My Friend Anna with a Lady With a Long Name
Nonfiction? Less deadly true crime, more about extortion? Heck yeah.

Words Fail Me
It's about writing! I do that!

Boys & Sex
Gonna learn boys.

Circus Wings by Aurora Dimitre
Wow! I wrote this one also! It's my least favorite of my published works!

People Like Her by Ellery Lord
My BOTM pick for December--not out until next month, all influencer domestic thriller-y.

Vive la Revolution by Some Guy
This is a humorous nonfiction book about the French Revolution, because, to put it simply, I fucking love the French revolution, and from flipping through, they don't ignore my boy Desmoulins, so we're good.

The Complete Jack the Ripper
Not a huge Jack the Ripper fan; as far as serial killers go, for me, he's low on the list. Still, should be fun.

Anxious People by Fredrick Backman
I love this man's writing more than life itself. 

The Valencourt Book of Horror Stories Volume II
scary

History is All You Left Me by Adam Silvera
Will I cry? Maybe. Probably. We'll see.

obligatory new year blog post

-
So, it's 2019. There are a few questions to ask. What did I do last year? I started this blog, and posting regularly. While this isn't like anything very many people read (I average ~20 views a post, hollaaaaaaaa), I do like it, and I think it's a way for people do kind of understand my voice if they're curious on whether I can actually write or not. I mean, this is different from my fiction, but, well, I mention I write in my videos, now you can decide whether I'm kidding myself or not. Speaking of writing, this year's projects were... a novella for class, a first draft, a first draft that I abandoned (i'm sorry i still really like this idea maybe some other time), a decision that I Need To Rewrite The Pet Project Again, a first draft, a revision of what I'm currently calling my best work but I'm looking at another round of revision this coming year, a first draft, a rewrite that taught me yeah I can't do fantasy, and a NaNoWriMo that cons...

the writing year so far

-
 I mean, it's been going well. I've put out two books so far, and the only reason Class B isn't out is because I just haven't gotten around to uploading the final draft to Amazon and everything. It's done. I'm about 14k into the next Aughts Boys book, which I am a little lukewarm about (it's Kevin, and he's like, kind of meh, for me, honestly), and about 10k into the last Serial Killers with Cookies book. Next month I start a rewrite of a Tinon novella, and the month after I start a rewrite of another standalone. It's going well. I think I'll publish all the books I meant to publish this year--the only one I'm iffy on is Kaz at the Approach . Everything else should be finished with plenty of time to spare, which is not like, generally my experience. Usually I have crossover between years.  It's been a good year so far.
