Here is a list of things that you can do each week as we work on our novels (suggestions welcomed).

Last Week's Goals
Reading for pleasure has certainly consumed what little free time that I have now. It's good to read for the fun of it. Whenever I'm writing a book, I do very little, if any, reading. I need to do more of this, but I can't forget about the writing.
My goals for next week:
Continue reading.
What did I learn this week?
Still nothing.
--William
MAGIC'S FOOL (Working Title): Finish Chapter 3.
Not yet.
MAGE STORM: Go over the revision critiques and decide to either start sending queries out again or take another whack at it.
Still working on it.
SEVEN STARS: Incorporate the critiques I've received.
Just about done.
BLOOD WILL TELL: Research more agents for this one. Send out two more queries.
Research no. Two queries yes. And one of them got a call from an agent and a request for the full.
BLOOD IS THICKER: Let's say through Chapter 5 as a goal.
No, but I did finis Chapter 3.
OTHER:
Update my blog twice a week.
Yes.
What can I say? I kind of got derailed midweek by that phone call.
Next Week's Goals:
On the Shelf:
THE IGNORED PROPHECY
DREAMER'S ROSE
MAGIC'S FOOL (Working Title):
Finish Chapter 3. Really

SEVEN STARS:
Incorporate the critiques I've received.
BLOOD WILL TELL:
Send out two more queries.
BLOOD IS THICKER:
Write Chapter 4.
OTHER:
Update my blog twice a week.

I also got a lot of good feedback on my first 3 chapters this week, and I incorporated that.
Next week, I want to finish rewriting my scene, and revise another 4. (Aydin's only got 6 more unrevised scenes, so if I'm really on a roll, I might get to the end).
