As for me.

Last Week's Goals:

THE BARD'S GIFT: Wait to hear.
Okay, this is getting harder. I should have heard by now. [Frown]

MAGE STORM: I don't think I'll query again until after the first of the year.
No queries, but MAGE STORM is first alternate in Pitch Wars, so I'll be getting some good feedback on the query and the story. [Big Grin]

MAGIC AND POWER: Start on the revisions.
Eh. Not yet. I've decided to concentrate on one thing at a time. [Smile]

THE SHAMAN'S CURSE: Work through five chapters (that'll be thru Chapter 23) for structural issues.
Yes! [Big Grin]

WEIRD OZ STORY: Continue reading L. Frank Baum's Oz stories for inspiration.
Ongoing. Plus I've stumbled on a brainstorming technique that might just get me unstuck. [Smile]

DREAMER'S ROSE: Continue reworking the original beginning.
Paused, so I can concentrate on one thing at a time. [Smile]

OTHER:
Update my blog twice a week.
Yes. [Smile]

Next Week's Goals:

THE BARD'S GIFT:
Continue to wait.

MAGE STORM:
Pitch Wars.

MAGIC AND POWER:
Prepare for the revisions.

THE SHAMAN'S CURSE:
Work through five chapters (that'll be thru Chapter 40).

WEIRD OZ STORY:
Continue reading L. Frank Baum's Oz stories for inspiration.

DREAMER'S ROSE: Pause to get through TSC revisions.

OTHER:
Update my blog twice a week.

Well, I don't have to be on pins and needles about THE BARD'S GIFT anymore. Another no.

Looks like this one will be my next self-pub.

No work on any novels again.

My Indie try is still on hold. I forget if I mention this on a previous week but someone was suppose to double check the Boulder places in my story but she wanted to do more and now she is super busy.

I may just give up on that.
