I had a pretty productive week
1. Finish my current read. That should be easy as I’m really enjoying it.
Done! I’m on to another ![]()
2. Go through all my Swanwick notes and look up web sites, books, authors etc, who were recommended to me. This will probably take me a couple of days! Lol
Done! I ended up buying another 10 books….whoops! (I hope hubby skim reads that bit lol)
3. E mail people I said I would at Swanwick.
Done!
4. Catch up with my prompts.
I did, I’m totally up to date ![]()
5. Start implementing the desk idea. Ahhhhh, now this is exciting.
Oooooo, I did ![]()
6. Start making notes on my M & B novel.
Done! VERY successfully
So this week I have hubby off work, so I’m looking forward to some days out
And with that in mind, the to do list will need to reflect that.
1. Finish my book. I started reading All That Mullarkey by Sue Moorcroft. Really enjoying it so this one shouldn’t be too hard.
2. Stay on track with prompts.
3. Make more notes on the M & B novel – especially title, characters and a synopsis.
4. Do some more work on the “desk” project.
5. Look at and bookmark all the photo sites Kirsten suggested on my Blogger Beware post.
So a few early mornings for me, so I can fit some writing time in
what are you up to this week?

Early mornings are great to get extra things done.
Sounds like you have a good week ahead of you!
This week, it’s all fun for me as far as writing goes. Working on one of my WIPs after a new surge of inspiration (Hoping to bring it from 12,000 words to 16,000 words this week), and then possibly switching back to editing my third novel.
Day 1 and I’ve been up since 6 checking e mails and answering blog comments…..I think I should be able to fit in a couple of hundred words before he gets up
Oooooo, exciting!
Good luck honey xx
Sounds like you got a lot accomplished.
I’m working on getting up to exercise before work, need to go over my beta readers notes and also figure out how to write 14,000 words by Friday while working 40 hours. No Prob!!! lol
Have a good week with the hubby
Melanie
I did Melanie, really pleased to see all those ticks in my diary
Wow, ummmmm, that sounds like hard work lol. Good luck honey!
Xx
Hahah you make such a busy life seem so effortless.
I find that I tend to procrastinate a lot…
Far too much to have probably even gotten just one of those things done!
I’m Chris by the way. I found this website through a comment on Pauline Conolly’s blog!
Haha, keep up the good work.
Chris
Lol, thanks Chris
Ahhhhh, yes, procrastination…..I use to do it a lot, until I started writing down what I wanted to achieve each week, and share it with the world lol.
Hi *waves* Thanks for stopping by! Any friend of Pauline’s is most welcome
Xx
100 likes for the post!
100 likes for MOLESKINE!
He he he
I LOVE my Moleskine diary, although, when I bought it last month they’d sold out of the red ones * humph* but at the weekend they had all the red ones in the shops!!!! Typical lol
Xx
Well done! I am impressed, I am never up to date with my writing prompts. This week is going to be another stupidly busy one at the office so I’m probably not going to achieve much. Roll on holiday…..
Thanks Zoe
I try not to fall behind anymore than 3 days, as I’m sure I’d never catch up! Lol
Ahhhh, yes, holidays…..I find it’s worse then! Lol
Xx
Catching my breath after reading your impressive ‘to do’ list. Have a good week.
Thanks Carol, and there was me thinking it didn’t seem like much lol
Xx
I’m busy writing guest blog posts and doing new author interviews for my first novel! Thanks for keeping up with my progress on the blog–and keep writing!
Rupured.com
I know! I’ve seen what a busy little bed you’ve become
You are very welcome honey, and good luck!
Xx
Your to do list sounds exhausting Vikki but as I find myself procrastinating more than I should perhaps I too should start writing down my goals each week.
Ha ha ha, thanks honey
I can highly recommend it, I don’t procrastinate half as much now, and I LOVE ticking things off the list
Xx
Test
I think I would be looking forward to the days off – only joking, have fun with the list.
Lol, thanks hon
Xx
Hi Vikki,
I’m still trying to catch up with everything after my hols! Reading all your blog posts is high on my list. But just in case I miss it, what is the desk project? X Jo
Hi Jo
Hope you had a lovely holiday hon!
Awwwww, thank you
Ahhhhhh, the desk idea….it’s a work in progress but, let’s just say *whispers* writing at my dining room table will be a thing of the past….SOON!
Xx
I always love your lists – I will one day get round to making my own, instead of falling into everything as and when it appears. Still intrigued about the desk lol have a good week off
x
Thanks Sam
He he he, ahhhhh, yes, the desk! All will be revealed soon
Xx
Good luck with your goals!
This week, I’m focusing on my second novel. I’m so close to finishing it!
Thanks CB
Ooooo, go you honey! Good luck!
Xx
