As for me.

Last Week's Goals:

MAGE STORM: Think about submitting this to a small publisher.
Still considering my options with this one. [Smile]

MAGIC AND POWER: Send out three more queries.
Yes. [Smile]

THE SHAMAN'S CURSE: Do some promotion to try to keep this going well.
A little bit, but I need to do more.

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

THE IGNORED PROPHECY: At least half-way through the third draft.
Oh, yeah. Almost three-quarters, actually. [Smile]

WEIRD OZ: Let the new ideas ferment a bit.
Ongoing. [Smile]

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

Next Week's Goals:

MAGE STORM:
Think about submitting this to a small publisher. But I may want to rewrite it with a slightly older protagonist first. I won't have an opening to do that for a couple of months.

MAGIC AND POWER:
Send out three more queries. Prepare pitch for WriteOnCon.

THE SHAMAN'S CURSE:
Do some promotion to try to keep this going well.

DREAMER'S ROSE:
Pause, for now.

THE IGNORED PROPHECY:
Finish the third draft. Start going back to consider scenes marked for possible deletion.

WEIRD OZ:
Let the new ideas ferment a bit.

OTHER:
Update my blog twice a week.
