Sadly, I didn’t get any books this week. BUT I did get my new business cards!!



I didn’t have many posts this week, as I was in the process of a name change! I’m so excited to finally leave Auntie Spinelli Reads behind, and am looking forward to the future of Novel Heartbeat!!

Only 2 more weeks left until I get to go to South Carolina for YALLfest! WOOT! I’m extremely excited about this event, as there are TONS of awesome authors.
Is anyone else going?! I’d love to meet up!

This wasn’t a very exciting week haha. I did get to go bowling for FREE on Tuesday night, though! It was the first time I’d been bowling in probably a year and a half…and boy, did I feel it! Every muscle hurt; it was kind of pathetic, really. But it was fun! One of the companies at work paid for it (and gave us free food and open bar, woot!) as a reward for us doing so well in sales. I didn’t do too horrible, considering I hadn’t bowled in forever….my first 3 games were 122, 123, and 137. I’m not even going to say what I bowled after I started getting tired (and drinking) though, it was embarrassing!
Do any of you ever bowl? Are you good at it??
Something else I wanted to share: Last week, my mom gave my boyfriend and I my grandmother’s wedding ring! We have talked about engagement in the near future, but haven’t made it official yet. It’s very exciting, though!
What’s in your mailbox, loverlies? Link me up!

I love bowling yet I suck at it majorly lol. OMG the business cards are beautiful! I love them. Also, great new name meme :D
As long as you enjoy it! :D
And thank you!!! I’m quite in love with them!
Oooh nice! I got some business cards myself this week too! Not nearly as nice as yours! Just ones I did with Vistaprint and uploaded my blog header!
Here’s my STS
Have a GREAT day!

Engaging, how exciting Jessi! I sometimes bowl and I’m okay at it. I love your cards! I wish I had a reason to design some for myself, haha.
Thanks Mel! You can totally get some for yourself ;) Even if it’s only 50 and you keep them!
Love your new business cards!! And I’m excited that your revamp here is something you are enjoying. I love it here, too, BTW.
I wasn’t very good at bowling back in the day….so I think I’ll pass! LOL
Here’s MY WEEKLY SUNDAY/MONDAY UPDATES
Aw, thanks Laurel! Glad you like it!
Moot for the new business cards! They are totally hot! I need to get some…eventually. Lol. Bowling is fun. Haha, but yes, so sore afterwards because I like NEVER play it. You and the biffle are so cute! That’s so exciting!

Your business cards look stunning! I’m actually planning to make one before Indonesia Book Fair next month :)
Hope you’ll have fantastic days in yallfest, will wait to see your report! :)
Your business cards are gorgeous! They’ll come in handy at YALLfest!
And that’s exciting about the ring. Can’t wait to hear that it’s official!
Thanks Megan! I can’t wait to hand them out ;D
I can’t either haha!
Awesome business cards! I freaking love Moo. :)
Thanks! Yeah, they are pretty awesome….LOVE the little box they came with! I think next time I’m going to go with the premium ones that are colored on the edges though, they’ll be a bit more sturdy :)
How exciting! Love them!

LOVE those business cards. I definitely want new ones in the future, and I’ll probably use MOO. Their stuff seems awesome.
AHHH, almost-engaged-exciting-stuff! <3
They are pretty awesome! It was expensive, but the quality is great and I love the little carrying case. Definitely recommend!
I’m pretty excited! :D
