PLANS.

Yes, I have PLANS. Because I am in the full swing of the Holidays, the writing just isn't happening. But I went over my GDRs yesterday (Goals, Dreams and Resolutions for those of you who wonder) and writing-related stuff was VERY high up on the list. Here's what I want to do:

1) Continue submitting my Fairy story to agents.

2) Polish and edit my YA Historical and Middle Grade Adventure stories. Have this done by May at the LATEST.

3) Submit THOSE stories to agents.

4) Basically, GET AN AGENT this year. But, also, I want an agent who is a good fit. So, I need to make my writing the best it can be.

5) Write early in the morning, and during Thing Four's naptime. This will give me 2 hours a day, for what I need to get accomplished.

I'm not going to be cynical about these goals. They are realistic.

I Guess You Could Say...

Since I've been sick, and running around like a chicken with my head cut off, the writing has suffered. Thus the blog has been...sporadic.

I need more hours in the day. Preferrably in the early morning, so I can hammer some edits out. I am really excited to get my edits finished, but the Holidays are sucking all my time and energy. That's what the bitter cold winter months of January, February and March are for. Staying indoors and spending time on Writing-related things. THAT'S when I'll get them edited and polished up. And after that, I'll start writing again.

Because I'm a major beotch when I can't!
