 Okay, so the blog post title is definitely me being lazy. What can I say? I'm tired right now. Sundays do that to me. Anyways, it will be Monday soon and it's time to check in with my goals. Goal 1: Write my ghost story. Which still needs a title. – Haven't done this. Goal 2: Edit Out of Secrets. I have notes from MB and MJ. They are on my desktop, staring at me. –I thought about doing this, but didn't. Goal 3: Read. I got some books for Christmas so might as well start there. – I DID THIS! I read two, count it two, books. A collection of Christmas themed short stories by Larry Kollar and World After by Susan Ee. I've waited over two years for this book. Worth it.
Goal 4: This is the most important goal. Not let myself get down, and if I do, remember I have friends who care about my happiness and well being. – I was a bit down the other day and my #writemotivation peeps rallied around me... I had no idea how to react to the positive. I was expecting to be ignored. (More about that for my IWSG post.) Goal 5: Reread Snapshots and do any edits if needed. – I started this. I'm on chapter three. I need to blog about this too. Later though. Monday is my 9 hour shift day at the day job, so I'm declaring it my day off from writing. Not too shabby, but it's only the beginning of the month. I have to keep this momentum and motivation up. Easier to say when I've had three days off. I still have to see how I manage on days I work the day job. But I've started daily to do lists and I'm hoping the accountability it provides will keep me going. PS: Cover war reminder! Go vote for me! Daily! Also, check out the scavenger hunt for chances to win awesome prizes.

I do a lot of thinking about doing things, too. >_< Seems to be a human thing. 1/6/2014 06:40:59 am
Congratulations on the things you did achieve. What I'm finding is by setting smaller goals I'm more productive. I'm not stressing about lots of things at once. I decided my brain couldn't cope :) 1/6/2014 01:16:41 pm
For the beginning of the month hon, you're doing fantastic! Just take it one day at a time, one word at a time, one book at a time - and you get the idea. 1/15/2014 10:08:42 pm
