As for me.

Last Week's Goals:

MAGE STORM: Wait out the latest request and a couple of recent queries. Then decide what to do next.
Still waiting.

Yes. And got a full request.

THE SHAMAN'S CURSE: Continue promotion efforts.
Yes. And this time it seems to be working.

DREAMER'S ROSE: Pause, for now.
Easy one.

THE IGNORED PROPHECY: Keep working through this first draft of the rewrite. This week I'll have one entirely new chapter to write so I'll set the goal at Chapter 45.
Not quite. I'm still in the middle of Chapter 44.

WEIRD OZ: I've finally started to get some new ideas on how to fix this one. For now, just jot those ideas down as they come and let them percolate.
Fermenting.

OTHER:
Update my blog twice a week.
Yes.

Next Week's Goals:

MAGE STORM:
Wait out the latest request and a couple of recent queries. Then decide what to do next. Try a small publisher, maybe. I've finished a lecture series by David Farland (Dave Wolverton) on writing for MG and YA. I may decide to make a change or two based on that.

MAGIC AND POWER:
Send out three more queries.

THE SHAMAN'S CURSE:
Come up with some new promotions to try.

DREAMER'S ROSE:
Pause, for now.

THE IGNORED PROPHECY:
Keep working through this first draft of the rewrite. I'll likely have another completely new chapter to write, but also a couple of short chapters so let's say through Chapter 50.

WEIRD OZ:
I've finally started to get some new ideas on how to fix this one. For now, just jot those ideas down as they come and let them percolate.

OTHER:
Update my blog twice a week.
