And I just finished edits through Chapter 6. Does that tell you anything? More importantly, does it tell me something?
(Yeah, like I took on too much this week!)
Granted, yesterday was fun. I went on a “castles and caves” cruise through central Ohio, saw some lovely sights, spent time with some wonderful friends, not to mention my daughter. You know, doing that living life thing we writers often have to make a point to do. So it was well worth it.
I wanted to get through Chapter 8. Or ideally, Chapter 10. Reality? What’s that?
Sigh. Okay, time to get real. Thankfully, I don’t have any major plans today or this coming weekend, so that will help a lot. I also have several things I’ve committed to do for others that I can’t put off any longer, things I owe writer friends who do stuff for me like beta reading and copy editing. So I am going to commit to the following:
Format anthology for my copyeditor
Book cover design for my beta reader
Chapter critique for my critique partner
Edit Chapters 7 & 8
If you are participating in ROW80, good luck!
The “castles and caves” cruise sounds great. I hope you will write a post about it with some interesting photos.
Good luck with achieving your goals. As long as you get through at least most of them, you are doing really well. I will keep my fingers crossed for you 🙂
You got it done, though! Congratulations on meeting your goals! That cruise sounds like so much fun. You’re right – it’s important that we writers remember to live (otherwise what will we have to write about?)!
Thanks, ladies! I am planning to blog about the cruise next week.
Nothing wrong with adjusting things, I tend to take on more then I can handle as well. Flexibility is the key. The cruise sounds like a total blast, can’t wait to see the pics from it.
Have a great week 🙂
That cruise sounds fun! Can’t wait to hear about it next week. I think we writers often set higher goals than are attainable with real life happening around us; but when even if I don’t reach all of my goals, I can look back and see lots of progress. Best wishes with your goals this week!
