Last Week's Goals

I'm still reading but I am getting more eager to start outlining one of my novels.

My goals for next week:

  • Read

Continue reading. I may try to work on a brief outline for one of my novels this weekend. My family will be out of town this weekend so it may be a good chance to do this.

What did I learn this week?

Sometimes you need a break? Perhaps this break has been too long though. [Smile]

Finished my revision while Hatrack was down. [Big Grin] I've spent the last week working on my query and synopsis. I think the query's getting pretty good, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to get my secondary POV characters into the synopsis without it exploding.

This coming week I want to polish up the query and short synopsis, and write the aforementioned longer synopsis with all my characters. I'll probably also spend a little time on a short story, so I feel like I'm writing.
