SOMETHING BORROWED was recommended to me by a number of friends, and I had bought it long ago though I did not read it until now. This was a challenging book for me to get through. It’s not the writing, it’s not the story or the situation the characters are in, and it’s not even [...]
Diversified Reading
By: Finny on: Jul 12,2010 In: Entertainment, life or something like it, reading, writingLately, I’ve been trying to be a little more diverse in my reading selections. Lots of authors suggest that aspiring authors should read everything they can get their hands on. (Hey, sometimes, I can only get my hands on work-related items, you know what I’m saying?). So, in an effort to diversify my reading habits, [...]
I used to be a great, dedicated blogger. Of course, this is back when I was writing entry after entry on the Anaheim Ducks over at Girl with a Puck and neglecting fiction. But I abandoned the hockey blogosphere to re-enter the world of fiction, and opted to start this blog to keep track of [...]

Tuesdays with Lazy Bum
By: Finny on: Feb 2,2010 In: EntertainmentI am Finny’s muse. Her unnamed, fickle inspiration she (affectionately) calls Lazy Bum. I’ll have you know, I am awesome. The Finnster just has a hard time seeing it. We’re kind of entwined, you know, two minds, one body and all? I like to slouch back into bed and curl up with other fantabulous works [...]

Hellooooo again, bright, sparkly (New Moon-ish) world!
By: Finny on: Dec 14,2009 In: Entertainment, life or something like itAfter three weeks of being in social lockdown, I have re-entered my social life with GLEE! Okay, not the TV show, although I do think it is all kinds of awesome. I’ve taken “writing” days off since last Wednesday, when I submitted my full manuscript to Dorchester for further consideration in the America’s Best Celler [...]
About this blog
Christy Finn is a 26-year-old super-heroine residing in Southern California somewhere between Los Angeles County and Orange County. Her amazing sidekick is a Pomeranian-papillon mix named Duchess because, well, she rules. When Finny escapes from her undercover job in academia, she spends her time reading, writing, and watching hockey games. Oh, and she goes on missions to save the world. Of course. This is why she is often sleepy and cranky. Give her coffee and chocolate, and she'll rejuvenate in a matter of minutes. Her current project is a YA paranormal to-be-determined, and her goal is to make PRO status start submitting her manuscript to agents by the end of 2010. She's been a member of the RWA since 2006 and prefers to keep her true identity hidden (so as not to have bad guys chasing her all over SoCal, natch).
2009 NaNo!
