As for me.

Last Week's Goals:

FIRE AND EARTH (formerly known as SEVEN STARS): Think of something new for promotion.
Eh. No.

BLOOD IS THICKER: Prepare for a blog tour in November. Write the guest blog posts.
Guest blogs done. Preparation done.

THE BARD'S GIFT: Wait. I don't expect to hear before early Decemberish.
Easy one.

MAGE STORM: Send out three queries.
Yes. And a new request for partial.

MAGIC AND POWER: Work through the crits I've gotten back.
Working on it, but slowly.

THE SHAMAN'S CURSE: Work through five chapters (that'll be Chapters 6 thru 10) for structural issues.
Hmm. Well, I didn't make that goal.

WEIRD OZ STORY: Continue reading L. Frank Baum's Oz stories for inspiration. Try out some different options for the voice.
Reading, yes. Rewrites, not yet.

OTHER:
Update my blog twice a week.
Yes.

Next Week's Goals:

BLOOD IS THICKER:
Nothing more on this until the 18th.

THE BARD'S GIFT:
Wait. I don't expect to hear before early Decemberish.

MAGE STORM:
Send out three queries.

MAGIC AND POWER:
Work through the crits I've gotten back.

THE SHAMAN'S CURSE:
Work through five chapters (that'll be Chapters 6 thru 10) for structural issues.

WEIRD OZ STORY:
Continue reading L. Frank Baum's Oz stories for inspiration. Try out some different options for the voice.

DREAMER'S ROSE: I pulled this one out of the pile. The words started flowing and I could see where the plot needed to change. I'm liking it and I'm going to ride this rollercoaster for a while. (Other goals may slide if the words keep flowing.)

OTHER:
Update my blog twice a week.
