Teaser Tuesday #1

 


Teaser Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading at 
Anyone can do it. All you have to do is:
(1): Grab your current read.
(2): Open it to a random page.
(3): Share 1 or 2 "teaser" sentences from somewhere on that page. BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS!!
(4): Make sure you also mention the author and title.

My Teaser this week is from Catching Fire (Hunger Games, #2) by Suzanne Collins
 

# 1: "Just the sound of his voice twists my stomach into a knot of unpleasant emotions like guilt, sadness, and fear. And longing."

# 2: ""The crowd can't help but respond with gasps and murmurs. There is no precedent for what _____ has done."

I know that practically everyone has read this series by now, but it's the book I'm reading now so I decided to use it for my first Teaser Tuesday. I left out the name so just in case someone actually hasn't read it, I don't spoil anything. I don't think it would, but I wanted to be extra careful. Hope they're good teasers! Link me to yours. :)

My BIG News!!!

I haven't posted in a while. I've been in the hospital for a long time and sick for longer, but I got home last night! Hooray! That's not my big news, although it is highly exciting. :) I finally get to see my lovely little kitty Princess again.

Anyway, here is my BIG news! Ready?

I am getting a book published!!!! That's right!! My first book will likely be out this summer! THIS summer! I can't believe it!

It is called Thousands of Mornings. It's a collection of original photography and poetry by me. It's not the book I expected would be my first published book, but I'm still super excited! I can't believe this is happening! 

I almost feel like this could be considered Young Adult poetry, perhaps? Still trying to put my finger on the exact genre.

I'm tagging several people to let them know because I am SO EXCITED!! I'll post more information on this later on. And soon, maybe, the cover?? ;)

Thank you!
