Do any of you have birthdays in March? Have you read or listened to any lamplighter books? If so, which is your favorite?ย
My family LOVES lamplighter books! We have pretty much 85% of the books and hope to get more soon! The audio dramas are great also! Treasure of the Secret Cove (hint: listen to the credits…so cool)!!

In Percy Jackson (I read the original series in Hebrew) they play capture the flag a few times, and they never translate anything decently so I was like “no way, the Hebrew translation actually sounds fine and is similar to the English name of the game” and then died from shock because translations are always so weird.

63k is a lot to reach for. Last year in July I reached 35k and then in November I won the official NaNoWriMo but with about half my brain still functioning so pushing beyond that is going to be IMPOSSIBLE however how cool would it be if I actually did it?!
