BookTube-A-Thon 2017 » Making Monsters and Going Vegan

I've never been good with people telling me what to do. In any capacity. Even with a thing as innocuous as a BookTube-A-Thon.

I felt like a gosh darn failure.

This year, though, I'm in a better mental place. I'm not "performing" the BookTube-A-Thon perfectly, but who cares? At least I'm reading and posting some videos about it. I'm not totally choking.

My first book was finished yesterday — an easy, breezy audiobook on the virtues of Veganism, titled Skinny Bitch.
