Well, last week was a complete mare as you probably know. Much angst about the WIP which is now in it’s 3rd metamorphosis. I think it’s going to work well with the new structure so I’m relieved lol
Last week, the To Do List looked something like this:
1. Go through TLWC and make notes – where I need to add stuff. Well, I did start to do that and it was as I was reading through it, yawning, I realised that there was something missing ![]()
2. Keep up with 1000 words a day. Yep, I did ![]()
3. Do some studying. Nope, too stressed lol
4. Read more. Read more this last week than I have for a while, but still not enough really ![]()
5. Finish Draft Blog posts. Done!
6. Sort out and finalise guest blog posts. Nearly done, just got to add a couple of links to one of them
So it didn’t really go according to plan, but I did have a lot on my mind he he he!
This weeks list looks like this:
I’m going out Saturday night, The Hubster is taking me out for a Valentines Day meal. Can you beleive he’s deserting me on Valentines Day and playing chess? Lol…Don’t worry, I’ll make sure he makes it up to me at the weekend
I’ll also be trying to do some character sketches so I’ll post one of those every week
Have a good week guys….What are your writing plans this week?

This was actually a really cute idea for a blog post, simply to share what your plans are for the week and how you accomplished them last week. lol! I can’t believe I actually read the whole post! And I don’t even know you!
Ok now that I feel like a stalker, time to resume hw.
Ha ha ha, thanks Katya
I find that if I post my “must do’s” I be one accountable and that makes me actually DO them!
Thanks for stopping by honey xx
Good luck with your projects
I’m going to try to get little caught up on my novel but I don’t expect to. My weekend word counts are still manageable at the moment so for now I’ll be working on my Sunday Shorts, possibly revisit January’s novel (that I still have to finish) and fiddle with another novel that’s my just-for-fun project. Oh yes. Then there’s the grad school application to be done (references to hunt down), work, volunteering and attempt to weasel my way into another volunteer position for work experience for school.
God thing I’m single otherwise I fear my date would be left at a fancy restaurant while I’m home passed out on the couch!
Enjoy your weekend date (it sounds lovely!) and have a very Happy Valentine’s Day!
Thanks Sandra
Wow, that sounds like a busy week honey…good luck!
I INTEND to! I’m expecting chocolates, flowers, champagne….. ( you listening darling?) I bet he’ll say “oh, I never saw that.”
Xx
You just helped me figure out what’s been wrong with my week. I haven’t done any reading! Will have to take care of that next week. Good luck with TLWC. Can’t wait to hear what you do with it. And have a great Valentine’s Day.
Thanks Mel
Ahhhh, yes, reading *slumps down in chair* it’s beginning to get me down, I never seem to have time! And then when I do I end up falling asleep lol
You have a great Valentines Day too honey xx
Glad to hear your going to make the most of your weekend
x
Oh yes Sam
You doing something nice?
Xx
I think it’s great you’ve managed to keep up with 1000 words a day! I’m currently at 700 words a day and my wordcount is going up, so I’m hopeful! Hope you have a great week
Thanks EM, I have missed a couple of days, but claw it back the next
700 is brilliant! Keep going!
You too honey xx
Chess! I hope they put little candles on the tables, really embarrass them all
Well done Vikki, even though you had a mare of a week you got most things done. You’re a real trouper!
It’s launch week for me, so I’ve got a stack of stuff to do around that. Also I’m having half term week off, so I need to schedule my blog posts etc. Good luck with your week xxx
Ha ha ha, now there’s an idea Jo…I could book a singing telegram to turn up or something….noooo, perhaps not, they really wouldn’t appreciate their matches being disrupted lol
I’m a grit teeth type of girl
And even though I’m feeling incredibly stressed, well, I’m not really, but all the spots on my face tell me otherwise lol, I’m determined
Ooooo, launch week!!!! How exciting!!!!!! Is there going to be an online launch party thingy?
Good luck to you too honey! Xx
This week I’m doing some reading research. Have a great and productive week and a great valentines!
Reading research? Oooo, sounds intriguing…..
Thanks honey, good luck to you too! Doing anything nice for Valentines?
Xx
We have sworn off valentines. We refuse to spend money on a specific date because its expected. Romantic aren’t we
I’m reading none fiction on witch hunters. I’m planning a none crime fiction book
Ha ha ha, my hubby use to be like that, would buy me flowers the week before! Lol. I do try to be romantic other times if the year, hell, yeah, actually I bloody am….but, Valentines gives me an excuse to INSIST that I’m spoilt
Ooooo, that must be fascinating!
Xx
It’s another boring day in our house. What we do is choose our own boring day to turn it into a romantic day
Ahhhhh, now I’m all for THAT!
Xx
I’m continuing with one a day blog posts – whew! Managed to finish transcribing a novella on Sunday so that’s one job out of the way. Need to get into current WIP to add chapters. Writing group board meeting tomorrow so making up agenda (I’m secretary).
Trying to get a regular swim in every other day…failing so far! Must try harder.
Good for you Mandy
That sounds like a busy week!
Yeah, I’m suppose to be going to the gym every day….ha bloody ha!
Good luck honey xx
Yes the weeks fly past and occasionally I wonder if I’m too busy. A break would be nice!
Oooooo, yeah, it would
Xx
You are such an organised person! I don’t even get around to a ‘to do’ list! I’ve given you a shout-out on my Blogger blog: http://excusemewhileinotethatdown.blogspot.co.uk
Oh Bel, I’m not, honest! You should see my house!
Awwwww, thank you so much honey *blushes*
Xx
Mine is deserting me too and his company is paying for him to do my favorite thing – go-karting!!! Serious penance due I tell you. Have fun!
*adopts shocked look* Catherine that is no way fair!!!!!
Definitely get him to make it up to you! *evil snigger*
You too honey!
Xx
I have been wanting to buy a book ha ha
He kind of put me on a book buying ban which I’m slowly breaking
Oh definitely break that honey!!!!!
Xx
I do need to find out if I can buy books using a UK debit card on a Canadian website. I bet you can
I’m sure you can
Have fun!
Xx
You didn’t do so bad with last week’s goals.
I’ve got several short stories in draft form so most of my writing time this week will be spent trying to knock them into shape.
I didn’t Patsy
But I can still see the areas I’m lacking in, reading being one of them!
Ooooo, good luck honey!
Xx
Vikki, my plans are to work on the next ten chapters of my WIP, do two blog posts and breathe
That sounds manageable *she says tongue firmly in cheek*
10 chapters???? Wow! Good luck honey xx
I neglected to mention they are an “edit/rewrite” and not new work
Ahhhhhh lol…. And there was me thinking you were superwoman!
Xx
