As for me:

Last Week's Goals:

MAILING LIST: Rethink my approach to this. I think I need to find something that works for me rather than shoehorn myself into something that's obviously not working.
No. [Frown]

DUAL MAGICS SERIES: As time permits, go through the x-ray listings for the Dual Magics boxed set and THE BARD'S GIFT.
Yeah. No. [Frown]

BECOME: TO CATCH THE LIGHTNING: I expect the last critique soon. Then on to the final revisions.
Critique is in. Time to start revisions. [Smile]

BECOME: TO RIDE THE STORM:Continue the first draft. Try to get to the half-way point.
Yes. [Smile]

OTHER:
Update my blog twice a week.
Yes. [Smile]

Next Week's Goals:

MAILING LIST:
Realistically, nothing is going to happen on this for at least the next two weeks. See BECOME: TO CATCH THE LIGHTNING below.

DUAL MAGICS SERIES:
As time permits, go through the x-ray listings for the Dual Magics boxed set and THE BARD'S GIFT.

BECOME: TO CATCH THE LIGHTNING:
Begin final revisions. My goal is to have this at a point where I can put it up for pre-order by the first. This doesn't have to mean done, but it does mean I have to have a really good idea of when I'll have it done.

BECOME: TO RIDE THE STORM:
Pause for final revisions to BECOME: TO CATCH THE LIGHTNING.

OTHER:
Update my blog twice a week.
