As for me:

Last Week's Goals:

MAGE STORM: Be ready to work on this when the first/second draft of WAR OF MAGIC is done and resting.
Nothing this week. [Frown]

THE SHAMAN'S CURSE/THE VOICE OF PROPHECY/BEYOND THE PROPHECY: Nothing this week.
Easy one. [Smile]

WAR OF MAGIC: Pause for a week or so. I think I need a short break from this one to come back with more enthusiasm. Nothing else is working to move this along at a better pace. Worth a try.
I think it's helped. We'll soon find out. [Smile]

BECOME: TO CATCH THE LIGHTNING: Get a bit more of this one done while resting WAR OF MAGIC briefly.
Yes! [Smile]

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

Next Week's Goals:

MAGE STORM:
Be ready to work on this when the first/second draft of WAR OF MAGIC is done and resting.

THE SHAMAN'S CURSE/THE VOICE OF PROPHECY/BEYOND THE PROPHECY:
Nothing this week.

WAR OF MAGIC:
Get back into this one. Chapters 39-41.

Keep working on this. Finish cleanup of world building, etc.

OTHER:
Update my blog twice a week.

Worked on Journey of Mystery.

Worked on a novel I am working slowly on "Insane" A dark gritty Urban Fantasy novel. I have never done one like that before. Done just a couple of pages but I established that my MC is insane and why. She is chasing a man through a deserted are of a major city.

Worked on the untitled steampunk dystopian novel, mostly revising the opening.

Same with my untitled steampunk, dragonpunk, UF, historical fiction novel.
