Don’t try to tell me how some power can corrupt a person

Goal 1) Publish The Atheist’s Inferno

My Goal: 1hr a day min, publish by June 31st
Where I planned to be: way further
Where I am: definitely not done
On Target or Behind: Behind

How’s It Going:

I’m still not done with the editor’s revision. I did finish my read through after rearranging everything and writing new scenes, and I think it’s pretty solid now. I want to do one more read through (because I also added a lot of content during the first run) just to make sure everything flows and I’ve got my times straight. Then I’ll type everything in and… Well, I’m not sure if I’ll have Audrey check it over or not. But either way, I’ll be on the home stretch.

You won’t ever break

Goal 1) Publish The Atheist’s Inferno

My Goal: 1hr a day min, finish editor’s revision by the end of Feb
Where I planned to be: Honestly, I wanted to be done with the editor’s revision by now
Where I am: I have like, 60ish pages left to read through
On Target or Behind: Ehhhhhh

How’s It Going:

I keep finding stuff I broke way worse than I intended or expected. Then when I finally get it fixed and move on, thinking “ope, that was the worst of it, gonna be smooth sailing from here” I run head first into yet another thing I broke. -lays on the floor-

I can wait for you at the bottom

Goal 1) Publish The Atheist’s Inferno

My Goal: 1hr a day min, finish editor’s revision by the end of Feb
Where I planned to be: Good question
Where I am: Even better question
On Target or Behind: ???

How’s It Going:

I am bad at updating. I did finish writing the new scenes, so now I’m reading through the whole thing to check for continuity and tweak any remaining issues. Except rearranging scenes has made for a couple of issues requiring some more writing, so everything is taking longer than I wanted.

Bleh

Goal 1) Publish The Atheist’s Inferno

My Goal: 1hr a day min, finish editor’s revision by the end of March
Where I planned to be: New scenes finished
Where I am: 1.5 scenes left to write
On Target or Behind: Jury’s out

How’s It Going:

I’m really bad at updating apparently. I just started on Concerta Tuesday though, so hopefully I’ll be less dead on the weekends.

Still working on the new scenes. They’re a lot more difficult than I expected.

You’re such an inspiration for the ways that I will never ever choose to be

The good news is, I saw my doctor last Monday and she definitely thinks my sleep issues are due to my current dose of Adderall being too high, but I wasn’t vibing on the previous dose, so she’s switching me to Concerta. The bad news is, because my timing is awesome and I just had the Adderall refilled 2 weeks ago, I can’t fill the Concerta until next Monday. /o\

Goal 1) Publish The Atheist’s Inferno

My Goal: 1hr a day min, finish editor’s revision by the end of Feb
Where I planned to be: All new scenes completely written
Where I am: Still have a few scenes left to do
On Target or Behind: Eh.

How’s It Going:
Writing these new scenes is proving to be a lot more difficult than expected. However, I’ve finalized my copy/description, so that knocks me down to 4 steps to complete in the next 4 months, so I’m still on track even if I have to take all of March to finish the editor’s revision.

Although, I did have some fun with the descriptions in one new scene where Madison is stoned out of his mind. XD
