Tarot Tuesday
Today I asked the admittedly vague question: What needs my attention? The Emperor is all about structure, rules, authority. This is an interesting one because yesterday I remembered that I built myself a lesson study over the summer, and that I was supposed to start in September. This card reminded me to look at the…

Weekly Goals
This week I’m going to check in with any beta readers that haven’t left comments yet, just to see if they’re still interested in reading. If they haven’t started yet, but are still interested, I may send out a more recent revision. I’m going to keep going with implementing the notes I get from beta…

Scribbler Unboxing
BookMail !!! Got my new @goscribbler box this week, and it’s full of fun stuff. These pretzels look delicious. This month’s writing contest is about secondary characters, as is the passport, which is super fun because my betas definitely have favorites, and I definitely have a few characters who need some development. This month’s chat…

Progress Check
Y’all. I had a great week. I hope you did, too. I did get the vacuuming done. I know you were concerned. I caught up on all my reading for my critique partners, made a dent in my TBR, and read a bunch of feedback from beta readers. So. Much. Feedback. I’ve heard back from…

So many bullet points…
Revisions! Revisions!(In my head that’s a Fiddler reference…) Finishing out the week making notes about what to change in the next draft. I’m trying not to make any big revisions until I get all of my feedback in, but every time a comment comes in from a beta, I’m all up in that Scrivener doc…

Tarot Tuesday
I forgot to post my daily draw today because, well, because I forgot to pull a daily draw today. Yesterday, in keeping with this week’s goals, I went into three Facebook groups that exist to match writers with beta readers. I’ve been lurking for a few months now, so I had an idea of which…

Weekly Goals
Ok, so my second draft is done, my kids are successfully dropped off for their first day of school… now what? Time to get caught up on reading for my critique partners and start finding beta readers for the WIP. But first… probably should vacuum the house.

Progress Check
I finished the draft y’all! Finished it. I’m going to do some more edits after I get feedback on this round (obviously), but draft 2 is done. I’m taking a little breather now, but next week’s goals are going to be about finding beta readers and working on the outline for Book 2. (There are…

Weekly Goals
I made some decent progress last week, despite the travel. Unfortunately, the drawback to moving everything to scrivener from Google docs is that I have to be on the same device to access it. Which would be fine, except that my laptop inexplicably uses a different charger than all the other devices we brought with…
