    My main confession is that I get obsessed with the books I read and love. I dream about them, talk to the characters in my head, and invent new scenes and different outcomes for them… It has happened to me with some of your books, Kim 😉
    Also, I’m really disappointed because I cannot bring all those stories in my head into words. But I guess some people are writers, and others are readers. I’m happy being in the last group.
    Those are my confessions for today!

    2 things. First is that I spend entirely too much money and time on reading but I wouldn’t change that for the world. How else can you travel the world and meet fascinating people without ever leaving home? Second is that I am constantly in awe that a human brain can produce such treasures. I will never understand it but I will always be grateful for it.

      Excellent confessions! And isn’t human creativity an amazing thing?

    Buying books is my #1 entertainment spending, so I can totally relate to your #19 confession! 😀

      I think books represent money well spent.

    Thank you for a great post. Let me share and confess some things as a reader.
    1. I love, love thriller and horror books. But give me the same title in a movie form and I can’t handle it, a big scaredy-cat. Weird, I know.
    2. It is so good to hear from the author who loves researching stuff. You have no idea how off-putting it can be when you read a poorly researched book.
    3. English is not my native language (it’s not even in second position), and so, one of my biggest pet peeves is badly proofread and edited book. Many times it had been a total deal breaker for me.
    This is it for my confessions today. There is more, obviously.
    Thank you.

      Thank you for confessing! Bad research and poor edits also drive me crazy. And I’m jealous that you’re adept in so many languages!

    LOL! I also purchase ebooks, paper books and audios at a rate much faster than I have time to read/listen. I may have to live to about 110 to get them all read 😀

      Wouldn’t it be great if we couldn’t die until all our books were read? Then we’d live forever!

    I love how you wanted to eat at Mac’s. I have 2 hard cover journals that I keep by my side when read,,, one to write down entertainers and songs I want to listen to and the other to make note of places and sites I want to visit. This includes restaurants, tourist traps and stores. When I have time I google them to see if they’re real or not! I got so excited when I read the Candy Man by Amy Lane and found out it really is a store in Sacramento. I’m going there one day just to see it and hopefully catch a glimpse of Darrin.
