I was going into September expecting a big book buying number. Attending NOLAStoryCon, I knew I was going to be purchasing books to get authors to sign for me. I think I was trying to keep my book budget prepared for this month all year. I was actually pretty impressed with how I did. Not […]
This month I received my Virtual Signing of The Devil’s Cut, which I don’t believe I took out of the budget yet. I think I was waiting for it to come in. However, I did pause my Audible account, so I have a few months without payments for that. I think it would just be […]
July was a good month for the budget. I used nothing but a couple of Audible credits. I’m in the “Saving for NOLA Storycon” mode. I’ve been disappointed to see some of the authors I wanted to see were no longer going to be attending. It’s NOLA though, I’m sure we’ll still have fun! Below […]
I think I was pretty conservative for the month of June. I DID get seats at the Andrews’ table for Buns and Roses. I tried to stay up until midnight when they went on sale, but I fell asleep. Luckily, my bladder decided to be my alarm clock and woke me up five minutes after […]

This month I spent a lot more money and time on other projects. It made reading and blogging a LOT harder. I have my planner and that should help some, but I think I need to re-evaluate how I use it. However, this was a big, big help with book spending, but I may […]
