A Note:

6/2/13

I once told myself: IF I am accepted into grad school, this blog would no longer be updated. As it turns out, in April, I received news of my acceptance for the Fall 2013 semester, where I will attain a Master's degree of Science in Nutrition.

Running a blog, as many of you may already know, is a demanding side job once the excitement wears off. And once I fell out of the blogging community's loop (have you SEEN how many blogs there are now? Wow!), it was like the kiss of death. Despite my best efforts, I couldn't get into a blogging routine once this happened due to the disconnect I felt from the community.

So I took a break. I struggled with the loss and with missing my blog. And then I realized I didn't have to run Book Faery to still be a book reviewer; I could read my books and post reviews online. I'm still a book review blogger, just not in the traditional sense.

I'll still be online. You can chat with me on Twitter, where I'll be posting links to my reviews and talking books. I'll also be posting links to nutrition articles. And if you'd like to connect with me where I guarantee I will post reviews, just add me as a friend on Goodreads.

So that's all, folks! It's been a fun and amazing journey, and I thank you all for listening to my thoughts about books. I hope we all can keep in touch elsewhere :)

Tori:Does your antagonist have a favorite pair of shoes?
Kitty: Hum, really good question. It’s more of a quality of dress for him, than shoes. However, my heroine wears her favorite pair of Chucks. I think they are super comfortable shoes, so I guess my love of them is translated. I once wore a pair until they were “barking.” The soles would flap when I walked. I finally tossed them out. Kasey and Ruby --one of my favorite supporting characters in Furry & Freaked-- also share a love of boots.  

Tori: What is your favorite movie?
Kitty: Right now, I love Easy A! It’s so witty and fun. My favorite movie changes so often. I adore all of the John Hughes’ High School movies from the Brat Pack days, Pretty In Pink, Some Kind of Wonderful, Breakfast Club, Sixteen Candles. 

Tori: Do you ever suffer from writer’s block?  
Kitty: Yes! You have to force yourself to write, work beyond the block.

Tori: What is your favorite dessert? 
Kitty: Chocolate Malted Crunch Ice Cream. It’s a California ice cream and I miss it! Also anything with Reese Peanut Butter Cups in them! And peanut M&M’s when I’m writing. The munching and typing thing is …magic.
