July Goals

[queenoftheskies]

Decided I was going to take a look at the goals I'd set for myself for the month and make a few tweaks here and there based on what I accomplished in June and how things appear to be lining up for the month.

So, here goes. This is what I'd like to accomplish for July.

JULY

Works in Progress
Finish Ancient Secrets (novel)
Finish Shadow of My Heart (novel)
Continue working on Wildfire (novel)

Edit/Revise:
Spilt Milk (short story)
Good Ole Boys (short short story)
Ancient Secrets (novel)

I think I'll give them one more pass before I send them out into the cold, cruel world. :)

Submit
Spilt Milk (short story)
Good Ole Boys (short short story)

Marketing
Research markets for Spilt Milk and Good Ole Boys
Write synopsis for Ancient Secrets
Write synopsis for Shadow of My Heart
Write synopsis for Wildfire

You know, I think that's going to keep me busy.

Oh, my........

that's quite a list.

good luck:)

PS--I have to take a class soon so that will cut down on my writing time til Aug. And just when I was starting to enjoy the summer. Oh, well, at least I'll have some time to recuperate until Sept.

Whew, it is kind of a long list. I think I'd better start getting some sleep if I want to get it all done. :)

It's hard having to give up some of your writing time, isn't it?

Word did the Spilt/Split thing to you again.

[queenoftheskies.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I've fixed it now.

That's a heavy duty list, Miss J. Good luck and yeah, I think that is going to keep you busy for the month. LOL...

Right on...

Of course, it'll be interesting at the END of the month to see how much I got done, huh?

And, I'm dying to get back into the swing of things with QnI and some other groups I belong to.

How the heck do I squeeze it all in?

Well, we're dying to have you back with us. Just take care of you first and the rest will fall into place.

Wow...I have everything crossed for you. And please let us know how you go with the submissions. Also the synopsis'. gggg That, I think, is the hardest part of any story to write.
Best of luck!

Thank you. :)

I'm nervous about submitting. For some reason, it's a lot more nerve-wracking for me then when I was submitting screenplays. I don't know why.

I have yet to write a novel synopsis. I got pretty good at synopses for screenwriting query letters, but those are so much SHORTER than novel synopses.

So many people talk about hating them that I'm feeling a little intimidated. :)
