What's up Wed: February!

I'm currently reading I WAS HERE by Gayle Forman.

I'm at about 15k for my new WIP. My goal is to reach 20k by next week.

Aside from writing I have a couple secret projects I'm working on. One non secret I'm working on is a collage of people reading HER OLIVES. If you haven't sent one yet, you have until the 12th to send me one. Send it to me through #FidasOlives.

Love, Fida

Good luck on your writing goal :)
I Was Here had me curled up with a pillow and sniffling... intense, but beautiful.

#LoveAThon Mini Challenge 4

Hello Poetteers, This challenge is all about mash-ups. We have to put together our bookish life with a non-bookish passion. It's easy once you know your passion. I love reading and writing stories and poetry. I love music, food and travel. I want to travel everywhere. Backpack in Europe. Explore Asia. Help Arabia. Try all the different foods. Probably with the characters of PAPER TOWNS. They have a good plan in place. You got to listen to music when you're driving or on a plane. UNWRITTEN is a bookish song. Or anything Natasha Bedingfield. Or anything bought for my phone. I just like background noise when I read or write. Yet I like to hang out with the songs I first heard of when introduced to music, instead of the newer ones. Maybe in our travels and meals we bump into my favorite artists and get to do some cool stuff like write, sing or just explore with them. At the end and even during the adventures I'd keep a journal of poetry and what we did. There I got everything I...
