[Meme] My Favorite… Thing About 2018 So Far

August 1, 2018      Erica Robyn      18 Comments

My Favorite meme graphic

My Favorite… is a weekly meme hosted by Maureen’s Books. The goal is simple, every week participants will share something that they love with each other based on a prompt.

This week’s prompt is:

My Favorite Thing About 2018 So Far

Let’s dive in!


My answer:
2018 has been absolutely insane. I’ve been SO busy, but it’s been a great year! The year started out quite rough, and there have been a few tricky patches here and there. Luckily I’ve had so many lovely people help me out when I needed them the most (thank you all!), and I got through it!

I have to say that my favorite thing about 2018 so far was landing my new job. This was a much needed change, and I just feel so blessed to have been given the chance to join my new company.

It’s been seven months and I still cannot believe how incredible my company is… I tear up just thinking about it! The culture is incredible, the owner is a wonderful and very generous person, the person who I report to absolutely rules, the office is a really neat space, I really enjoy what I do, and I have great benefits!

I mean, how many other company owners shuts down the office just to let the employees go enjoy the weather? How many hire an ice-cream truck to hand out frozen treats on the hottest day of the year? How many take the entire company to a movie in the middle of the afternoon, treating them to whatever they want at the concession stand (even wine!)?

I am so very thankful for this job.

Thanks for reading!

      Thank you! <3 I bet you'll find a great one soon! One tip that was given to me when I was job searching… which was terrifying at the time, but ended up working out… Don't settle permanently! Take the stepping-stone job, but keep your options open and work on finding a great fit on all fronts. 🙂

Max is one of the most hilarious people that I fol Max is one of the most hilarious people that I follow on Twitter! I originally learned who he was after seeing him participate in the KillerCon 2020 Virtual Event. I went to follow him and his publishing house, Perpetual Motion Machine (that he runs with Lori Michelle), immediately after his reading.

Within the PMM publishing house, they also have the imprint, Ghoulish Books, which launched in January of 2022. Max’s latest book, Maggots Screaming!, launched today April 12th, 2022 from that imprint. In celebration, I’m so excited to be sharing this interview with Max!

In the foreword, the author warns that this is a book of fears, and boy does he play on fears wonderfully! Each tale is presented to readers in the first person to really get readers in the characters shoes. Please use caution here when you dive in. The author does not shy away from the darkness.

Phew, this read will take readers on quite the journey! It was the perfect read for a dark and rainy spring weekend.
