As for me:
Last Week's Goals:
MAGE STORM: Think about what else I could do with this story. Very few thoughts about this one this week.
THE SHAMAN'S CURSE/THE VOICE OF PROPHECY/BEYOND THE PROPHECY: Nothing this week. Easy one.
WAR OF MAGIC (temporary working title of DUAL MAGICS Book 4): Time to start some more specific goals. Let's say three more chapters--through Chapter 15--to start. Mm. No. More or less in the middle of Chapter 14 still.
BECOME: TO CATCH THE LIGHTNING (formerly DREAMER'S ROSE): Place on hold as long as I have momentum in WAR OF MAGIC. Another easy one.

Came by to say that I am still working on Journey of Mystery at work and revising sections per week though I am doing half size revisions. I will stop for a week or so if I need to with NaNo.
And I am working on The Courier an exciting steampunk-in our time period-adventure dealing with a Courier. No internet, no cell phones and not everyone trusts phones and the mail. So they use couriers to send contracts, blueprints, love letters, needed parts, Gems, gold, and whatever else there might be. And as my MC-a young woman with an usual youth and training she thinks would be good for that occupation. It can be dangerous at times.
My MC just has had something added to her Courier pouch-something like a laptop bag or messenger bag-without her knowing. That will set of an adventure using all the skills and friends she has.

It's been a slow week and I need to get myself back into the habit of writing every day, but I have successfully figured out what I was doing wrong with Sanguine and how to go about continuing it. There's no way I'll meet the NaNo wordcount at this point, but that's okay. My new goal is to try and have a readable (hopefully better than first) draft done by Valentine's Day so I can gift it to my husband.
I'm still going to participate in the NaNo threads, because it helps keep me focused. I'll probably start setting weekly wordcount goals to help keep my momentum up after the month is over.
