As for me:

Last Week's Goals:

FIRE AND EARTH (formerly known as SEVEN STARS): Wait to hear back on the request coming off of Pitch Wars. Consider what to do next if (as expected) the answer is no.
Easy goal.

BLOOD WILL TELL: Figure out how I want to proceed on a couple of ideas coming out of IndieReCon.
Some.

BLOOD IS THICKER: Let it cool before going back for the next round.
Another easy one.

THE BARD'S GIFT: Finish the final revision pass. Start polishing edit. Try to come up with a map. The goal is to have it ready to start querying early next month.
Yep. I've even sent three queries, already. I'm back in the game! Wahoo!

MAGE STORM: Wait for feedback.
Continuing.

MAGIC'S FOOL: On hold.
Off hold, but not on the front burner.

OTHER:
Update my blog twice a week. [/qb][/QUOTE]Next Week's Goals:

FIRE AND EARTH (formerly known as SEVEN STARS):
Wait to hear back on the request coming off of Pitch Wars. Start thinking about cover art. If the answer is no again, I'm going to epbub.

BLOOD WILL TELL:
Figure out how I want to proceed on a couple of ideas coming out of IndieReCon.
I'm going to test out a couple of things in the next week or two.

BLOOD IS THICKER:
Let it cool before going back for the next round. This one may get to participate in the marketing goal for its sister (BLOOD WILL TELL) above.

THE BARD'S GIFT:
One final read-through. Send out three queries.

MAGE STORM:
Wait for feedback.

MAGIC'S FOOL:
Edit the handful of chapters I've done. The character voice is too young.

OTHER:
Update my blog twice a week.
"Magic and Power", probably a novella that I just started.
