Another week off...

So, apparently, I don't use holidays!! We're approaching the beginning of the new financial year and I still have holidays left to use at work, so I get another week off to pretend to be a full-time writer! How did I start that week... by doing nothing writing related whatsoever! Not a great start, I will admit. But hey!

I do have great plans though. I sat down with my planner and worked out what I had planned socially, then looked at what I wanted to achieve as far as my writing went. Obviously, I now have three lists... What can I say? I like lists.

I have my plans for the week... seeing family, catching up with friends, a few appointments and my plans to go riding. Then I have a list of chores and other house-related tasks that need my attention this week, and then I have filled my planner with my writing goals for each day. Today's is a write-off, though I had planned lots in. Instead, I had a lie in and started a new book, I went to lunch with a friend and then went horse riding in the sunshine, so I need to rejiggle a few things to fit it all back in, but I have every faith in myself!

My writing goals for the week include:

  • Finish the reread of the second Cursed Novel and begin edits
  • Finalise the first Cursed Novel
  • Decide on a cover for The Original Sin
  • Get The Original Sin back from the editor
  • Solidify the plan for Slayer, the story I will be writing for Camp NaNo next month
  • Have a look at the children's novel I started to see if there is actually anything I can do with it
  • Research blogs for a potential blog tour for the first Cursed Novel in the summer

I don't think that my list is an unreasonable list... Though I have always aimed high. I guess we shall just have to see how things go.

Wish me luck - I'll see you on the other side with another post to let you know how I got on!
