2022 in Review

 

I can’t believe 2022 is almost over!  It has been yet another year where I read a lot of REALLY good books.(And there are still books in my TBR pile that I had hoped to read and possibly review before the calendar year came to a close)    Here are some of my favorites of the year:

Yes, my personal Goodreads reflects so many more books than this. There are so many talented writers out there but these were the books that I just can't stop thinking about!

I'm also feeling super honored that this year I FINALLY got some of my own writing into anthologies:

"Inside of Me" in Under Her Skin

"The Shadow" in 206 Word Stories

"From the Safety of My Couch" in Hear Us Scream Volume 2

I can't wait to see what next year will bring with my ongoing literary journey!
