Goodness, another month ending? How can this be? And to think, only one more month to go before the end of the year! Wasn't 2016 just starting? *obligatory flailing over the speed of time* Boring Stats from the blog that you will probably end up skipping over: Ok, who is in Singapore, please raise your hand. I must know. Happenings. What? Surprised that I put this in? Well it's in the title so: 1. We gathered with Dad's side of the family to celebrate Grampa's birthday, and guess what?SMORES! 2.

We’ll post 10 questions to answer about your WiP — aka your  beautiful book .  Answer the questions in a blog post of your own and then come back here to link up! Ze Questions: 1.
