I won! I won! I won! :D

I won an ARC of Carrie Lofty's new book. Nope, haven't read any of hers before. Can't say anything about it yet, but by January 2 (I think that was the date...) I shall. I'm very excited. I love a great romance. My favorite author is Julie Garwood in romance. She just flat out is. But, hers are historical romance, so I guess she kind of rocks only that genre (ignoring her contemporary stuff, which are good as well, but I think I have to side with Janet Evanovich in contemporary mystery.). Which is good, because that means I just have more fav. romance authors. My point, then, is that I am looking for someone else to read along the same lines as her. I'm hoping Carrie Lofty is it. Any advice anyone? And for the record, I am a hardcore fan of old romance, such as damsel in distress, hunky sweet yet gruff men. Honestly, I skip past the sex parts once I've read them once or twice. They kind of bore me. It's all the same after a while. *sigh*

Other news. I have rediscovered Sparknotes in my really shitty semester of school where I haven't been reading everything I'm supposed to be. I seriously have a case of senioritis going on. I know, wrong year. But I don't want to do ANYTHING. It's pathetic, and I am depressing myself with this condition. I don't like to be one of those people that doens't do what she is supposed to. I know, my fault, and I can hop back on the horse. It's just a bit more difficult than one would think when trying to read Emerson and Moby Dick and Thoreau. All pain the butts, they are. But, BUT, Sparknotes has a whole bunch of the stuff I was supposed to be reading. :) I love Sparknotes, and not just in the way of getting out of reading, but as in reading as a side note, or as notes, or as review. They have a lot more than just literature on there, and I am often tempted just to go take a look at it all and be amused. I love to learn. I just need motivation.

No writing, again. But, one more week after this one and I am done. DONE!

Also, I found a fanfiction, on fanfiction.net, that I like quite a bit. It could use some work, but I love the story. I could have sworn it was sort of kicked off or something before, but apparently not. Or the author reposted. Whichever. But I reread it all, and I can't wait for an update. If you all think I am bad, this author hasn't updated in a year. She plans to, as of September of this year she is still acknowledging it, but who knows how long it could take. I want you all to remember this important lesson when thinking how long it has been since I have updated. :) Also, if you want to find it, it is a Sesshy Kags fic, so under Inuyasha. Type in dance and injury in the search box. I think you get two possibilities, if not just look. Kags was a dancer, got beat up by her old bf and possibly won't be able to dance again. She begins to connect with Sesshy. Pain in the ass ex boyfriend story. :) Can't wait for an update.

That's it for now. I just had to post that I won something. :)
