Don’t get me wrong. I definitely have #Writemotivation, but lately, that’s all I have time for. My days just seem to melt into each other after a few hours up at night so I can get editing or writing done…and then I need a midday nap with baby.
Time, time, where for art thou time?
Anyhow. Even though time is magically disappearing… constantly, I’ve still managed to get some things accomplished.
So let’s see then, shall we?
1. Finish FOD edits OMG DONE and sent to awesome agent
2. Draft Experiment – outline complete
3. Outline edits for AI – may not do this
4. Do CP work for J & H – J almost finished, H started
5. Write OWM piece for this month – Rough drafted
6. Pick next OWM prompt – PICTURE PICKED!!!
7. Keep up with Social Media and Blogs – Social Media, CHECK. Blogs – I’m a slacker.
8. Mwah – Babeh! – well DUH
Now 3 – I may not do this because this book needs so much work it’s disheartenting. And mainly because I cut the crap out of it in the first round of edits, and IMHO ruined my book. Good news? I can just revert to draft one again and go from there if I want to… Bad News? I may need to start it in an entirely different way which means a partial rewrite
And I’d rather focus on FOD, Experiment, and the other 50 plotbunnies plaguing my every waking thought.
Which probably means AI, while not trunked, might have to wait until I’m in the right mood to tackle the mess I created.
That’s how I’ve been going.
And let’s totally ignore my lack of #Writemotivation cheering 🙁
I’m so sorry. I’ll get my act into gear and go and hug every single one of you. You’re all so awesome.
How is your July?
Oh, and don’t forget, if you’re querying or about to start, enter my giveaway!
<3 totally understand the lack of time. Me, though, it's more my brain being stupid than anything else! LOL
And really, my brain is being exceptionally stupid as of late and getting/keeping me in a funk! UGH!
I do so wish I had your problem though 🙂
Love you, woman!
<3 I don't think you ruined AI. I think it just needs more adjusted than FOD, and FOD/experiment are right now better uses of your very limited time. I still love the concept/characters in AI though, fwiw. <3
I’ve been slacking off big time for July’s #writemotivation. Yesterday I finally started my editing goals, so you’re doing much better than I am.
I know the feeling. With a young child in the house it isn’t easy to make time to write. My first NaNo taught me that. heh We’re all still here to cheer you on. Looks like you’ve done well with your goals.
I say take a break from AI, but don’t give it up. You never know when you might want to go back and work on it. Good work on the goals, though. Look at how you’re knocking them out!
I really wish I had a TARDIS. That would so help both of us out. 🙂
You’re awesome. Keep up the awesomesauceness. 🙂
i always think our brains pull us in the direction we need to be pulled. if it’s away from a project for the moment, then go with it. i put one project aside for four years and have returned to it this year when i’m a much better writer. the project is so much better now.
