As for me:
Last Week's Goals:
DUAL MAGICS SERIES: As time permits, go through the x-ray listings for the Dual Magics boxed set and THE BARD'S GIFT. This is here to remind me that eventually I need to get back to this.
BECOME: TO CATCH THE LIGHTNING/BECOME: TO RIDE THE STORM: Promote through social media. I now have two books on social media marketing. So . . . I need to read them. Some.
MAGE STORM: Work on this rewrite. Slowly. Ever so slowly.
DUAL MAGICS SERIES: As time permits, go through the x-ray listings for the Dual Magics boxed set and THE BARD'S GIFT. This is here to remind me that eventually I need to get back to this.
BECOME: TO CATCH THE LIGHTNING/BECOME: TO RIDE THE STORM: Promote through social media. I now have two books on social media marketing. So . . . I need to read them.
MAGE STORM: I obviously need a more concrete goal here. Two chapters. That'll be Chapters 6 (of which I have two whole paragraphs written) and Chapter 7.
List of published books just to remind me of all the things I should be paying at least some attention to:
Blood Will Tell (Chimeria #1) Blood Is Thicker (Chimeria #2) Fire and Earth The Bard's Gift Daughter of the Disgraced King The Shaman's Curse (Dual Magics #1) The Voice of Prophecy (Dual Magics #2) Beyond the Prophecy (Dual Magics #3) War of Magic (Dual Magics #4) Become: To Catch the Lighting (Become #1) Become: To Ride the Storm (Become #2)

Non-novel bits 'n pieces: In final throes of website content development (site for both consulting practice as well as writing).
Final copy edit of poetry collection is progressing slooooowly. Into layout on 31 Jan, so I must make some time for it this weekend before clients start making demands.
Everything above - including various pieces of short fiction made more difficult by persistent cold. Still foggy headed.
Novel development: THE BOOK OF DREAMS Stalled by uncooperative head cold, which is becoming a chest cold. Plus I am allowing myself to get distracted by things that seem easier -- or offer more short-term gratification. Hoping for more progress on outline by the end of next week. I need to find a rhythm for this work.
