goals

  • Sun, sun! My kingdom for some sun! It’s been a strange week for me so far, one I’m not entirely pleased with, but there’s little I can do about that. I’m not sure whether I can blame it on outside forces or if it’s a hiccup in my own drive and motivation, but I want…

  • Man, this week has kind of been a mess for me. I’ve been all over the place, staying up way too late, sleeping in too late, too, and doing a really poor job of keeping all my goals in check and my work finished. It happens. I was having a pretty awesome streak for a…

  • New RoW80 Goals!

    Today begins a new Round of Words in 80 Days, which means a new set of goals to carry me through to the end of the year. This last round is always a little awkwardly placed for me, because NaNoWriMo tends to fall smack dab in the middle of it. With that taken into consideration,…

  • Days Like These…

    We all have days like these where it feels you can’t quite manage to get your head on straight no matter how many cups of coffee, no matter which room you work in, no matter how quiet it may be….until about an hour before you have to go and see tos ome other obligation. That…

    Hey, guess what, it’s October now! Which means that, in addition to trying to get as much out of Madeline as I can before I have to shift gears and pushing the heck out of World Unknown Review before the October 31st deadline, I’m going to start getting all my ducks in a row for…

  • When I cam across Harlequin’s So You Think You Can Write contest, at first I laughed. And then a little spark in my brain went off, and I thought, “I could so totally do this.” Romance isn’t in my wheelhouse AT ALL, but I understandt he appeal and the potential benefits of delving into it.…

  • RoW80 Update: This is the End?

    I’m going to be 100% honest. I have no idea when this round of RoW80 officially ends. I know when the next one begins (October 6th!), but I don’t know when this one ends. That’s fine, too, because my goals have sort of run their course. So, even though I’m pretty sure this isn’t the…

  • Yesterday was a pretty interesting day for a lot of reasons…day off, walk in the park and a visit to the library in my new town with my guy, a pretty solid scope of work finished, and some delicious food…but the biggest thing about yesterday was that I finally went to the post office to…

  • It’s been an odd couple of days for me, though not necessarily in a bad way. I did some much-needed rearranging in the bedroom for my rare Monday off, though I didn’t get a lot of writing work done. I’m oddly at peace with that, mostly because I’m finally getting a good grip on the…

  • Every single time. I swear, it happens like clockwork, every single time. I start to feel really dull and uncertain with my direction, I take a day where I mostly don’t do anything and feel really guilty about it, only to have my batteries totally recharged the next day, forging forward with confidence and certainty…
