Goal Update 1/11

Goal 1) Publish SKoS

  • My Goal: Spend at least 10 mins, 3 days/week minimum
  • Where I planned to be: Spent at least 30 mins
  • Where I am: Spent …so many mins
  • On Target or Behind: On Target

How’s It Going:
I have four mockup covers for each of two titles so far. And it looks like I’m not gonna get any bites on the forum for a freebie edit so… professional edit it is. And as broke as I am… I’m leaning toward the expensive one. It’s my first novel, and I know it’s probably still not top-notch. But if I can make it salable, well. I will.

Goal 2) Revise SYCU

  • My Goal: Spend at least 10 mins, 3 days/week minimum; 1 chapter/day
  • Where I planned to be: Through chapter 4
  • Where I am: Through chapter 4
  • On Target or Behind: On Target

How’s It Going:
Measuring this by time doesn’t feel right, so I’m going by chapters now (because I… happen to have this one separated into chapters). No idea how many there are because I haven’t looked. I’m just kinda winging this one. (Ha. Haha, punny. Because this one’s about people who have wings.)

I continue to be fascinated by how good this is. And it’s not because I’m too close to it; I literally haven’t looked at it since the day I finished it. Six years ago. They don’t feel like my words anymore, even though I know better.

Maybe this will be easier than the first one after all.
