June was definitely a mixed bag for me. I strayed pretty far from my TBR, but I did have some success in other areas. Since I have so many books left over from last month and a few new ones that I need to review, I’m not going to post a Monthly TBR. Instead, I think I’m going to post my review schedule.
Other than my TBR failure, I had an excellent month. LA Progressive published an article I wrote on the influence of corporate donations to the American Congress and how they effect legislative action regarding the opioid crisis. You can find it here! It’s my first byline and I’m really proud.
I also started working with a second review company. It’s called Feathered Quill. My first review with them was for Go Home, Afton by Brent Jones. Definitely check their website out! They have a lot of excellent reviews available.
Currently, I’m waiting to hear back from Longreads, where I’ve pitched an essay.
Here’s to hoping July’s TBR goes a little better!
