As for me:

Last Week's Goals:

DUAL MAGICS SERIES (THE SHAMAN'S CURSE, THE VOICE OF PROPHECY, BEYOND THE PROPHECY,and WAR OF MAGIC): Finish setting up a mailing list and start preparing first newsletter.
Hit a snag. Likely won't be set up until the first week in December. [Smile]

DUAL MAGICS SERIES: As time permits, go through the x-ray listings for the Dual Magics boxed set and THE BARD'S GIFT.
Yeah. No. [Razz]

BECOME: TO CATCH THE LIGHTNING: Keep on writing.
Yes! [Big Grin]

Wide Distribution Project (redux): Prepare a schedule and to-do list for removing books from Pronoun (which has announced that it's shutting down), change the back matter again, and republish through Draft2Digital. I can't actually start moving the books until after a couple of promotions have run.
Started. It's complicated. Very bad time of year for them to pull this. [Frown]

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

Same as last week. I am almost done with my NaNo novel less then 9,000 words to go. I figure 8,000 or so in the last story and then another 1000 to two in story number three that I am doing at work.

I need to have my hero find the guy who has been hassling him I know who it is at least and why. Its in a story 3 flashback, but I know not exactly how my hero ends this.
