1) Laundry. I just fill another basket.

2) Emails. Haven’t heard from me? Don’t worry you’re not alone.

3) Reading. I love books and I have a stack waiting for me, but I can’t get to them yet.

4) Dinner. Soup anyone?

5) Organization. No a storm did not strike my desk. Yes I know where everything is. Trust me.

6) Frequent blog posts. I’m sure you’ve noticed.

7) Housekeeping. I just pretend the place is clean and make sure not to invite anyone over.

What an interesting way to get people interested in reading! Book trailers are like movie trailers, but for books! You can find them all over the internet now, but here is a site that’s featuring them on YouTube. http://www.youtube.com/booktrailers
