What went down in 2018

~ Mya

Greetings! I know everyone is probably super overwhelmed by the amount of these posts flooding their readers… But I just had to do one! 2018 was a great year for me and I love writing these posts. I’m going to break down my 2018 highlights into categories. 🙂

Reading // Bookish Things

I read 101 books, beating my challenge of 100 books!Capture

That’s…. a lot.

  • I got my first ARC (advanced reader’s copy).
  • I also met my favorite author ever, Shannon Messenger!

Writing

  • I finished writing my first ever book, Hide and Seek!
  • I published Hide and Seek.
  • I started writing my second book. 😉

Life

  • I graduated middle school!
  • I started high school.
  • I started homeschooling.
  • I quit gymnastics. (sad, but a big change in my life)
  • Went on vacay with my BFF.
  • Was a leader @ VBS.
  • Turned 14.
  • Practiced driving in a parking lot and crashed. 😛 XD
  • Met my internet bestie Sam for the second time!
  • Went to a Twenty One Pilots concert.
  • Quit drinking soda.
  • Dyed my hair purple. :0
  • Made some new blogging friends.

Blogging

  • This blog was visited by 1,773 people or robots.
  • Upgraded to a premium plan.

  7. You did so many amazing things this year. You go girl! I can’t believe you got to meet Shannon Messenger that is awesome. I was going to go to the one by my house but it was like an hour drive and I had other stuff. I’m planning on ordering your book off of Amazon soon. I can’t wait to read it! 🙂

    1. Aw, thank you Rose! Ikr, I can’t believe it either. It was a great experience. Maybe you can still go to an event in the future! And yay, thank you so much. I hope you enjoy it. 😃

  13. What an epic book list, Mya! My sister and I challenged ourselves last year, and she read about 80 books, while I only read about 40 (and we both listened to lots of audiobooks, which I still count ;D). What a pretty blog! I’m looking forward to reading more of your posts. Also, waves from the YWW! 😀

    1. Thanks, Ruth! A lot of the reading was last minute in December trying to achieve my goal. That’s still a lot of books! Yes, I count audiobooks, too. 🙂 Aw, I’m glad you think so! Waves from YDubs! *doesn’t know how we spell it :P*
