Nerd Church - 6 Tips For Staying Productive While Feeling Cruddy
It's always the same.
You've got a deadline; work to do; bills to pay. And you've managed to catch a cold or some other annoying buggle* at the exact wrong moment.
This week I have a pretty awful virus of some type. And I feel like crud. But I work for myself and money doesn't grow on trees (...or so they tell me; I'm gonna find that money tree one day dammit!)
*yes, I refer to viruses as 'buggles.' Blame my mother. Honestly.

Friday Fics Fix - Aristotle and Dante Appear In Fanfiction
This week, I've been reading some YA fanfiction.
Most of the fanfiction I read is actually TV/movie-based (maybe because a lot of the fanfiction out there in internet-land is based on TVs and movies stuffs! Lol.)
I figured I'd read some book-based fics for once. What with this being a book blog and all that jazz.

Month in Review(s) - July 2017
July was a big month for this little book nerd's blog!
This was the month that Diary of a Reading Addict (DORA) became Dora Reads - with a custom URL to match.
It's something that'd been on my mind for a while, and I'm so glad I did it!
