Project Rundown

I stole this idea from .

BOOKS

CRUSH: Completed, now editing. Plan to have revisions done and sent to The Agent by July 31, 2006.
MOVES: Started, about 13K words into it. Framework is laid out, just needs fleshing. On hold until CRUSH is submitted. Target completion date is December 1, 2006.
UNTITLED I: Sequel to CRUSH, but can also be a stand-alone. Started, fewer than 1K words in. On hold indefinitely.

Ideas are cooking (with scant notes made) for the following titles:
– Apple Blossom
– Netpixies

MEDIA

Website: Professional writing site. URL to come. 🙂

The Problem

So, I just got my CRUSH critique back from Mandy (). The things she picked up on were the things I knew I had to fix. Some other things too–just things you KNOW as a writer, but the reader doesn’t know. The things that you know you have to clarify. Those things. Yeah.

And she gave me some suggestions which will help a LOT. CRUSH is going to be even better than it already is. 🙂

I’ve been working on revisions all evening–my eyes are literally about to cross. AND I STILL WANT TO KEEP GOING.

The problem is that I’m so anxious for this to be done and shipped off to my agent, that I want to push myself to limits unknown. And I know that’s not healthy. So I will be patient. After all, I do have a more than a month before my target date.

Still. I’m antsy! But okay. Putting the computer away for a bit…….

Goal Check In!

My goals for June 2006 were to have 50,000 words done in CRUSH by June 30. I exceeded that on June 9th.

I was to also read one new book. I read at least two new books in June, possibly three. I lost my list, so I can’t remember! WAH!

GOALS for JULY:

·  Finish revising CRUSH by July 31, 2006;
·  15,000 words in MOVES by July 31, 2006;
·  Read two new books.

Onward!
