Super busy week so I’m not on pace but I plan to put a little more oomph in on Friday night and Saturday.  I may be tweaking my goals to reflect a slight change in pacing.  I broke one rule and did some editing instead of new writing so I could post a new chapter at my writing site for critique.  Oops.  Oh well, not going to feel too guilty about it as I’m writing YA and this is a new arena for me so perhaps slow and steady with more pulse checks along the way isn’t a bad idea.

I must confess to the following diversions:  playing with a Weebly site to possibly replace my WordPress site for one of my other pen names, editing the galley for the anthology that’s going to print TOMORROW!! (that’s a worthy one though so no guilt), reading the final bits of a novel (the horror) and watching Glee, Survivor (tonight), the Amazing Race and a couple of other shows, cause, uh my family made me…yeah, that’s why!

So, the usual drill now.  My cumulative stats are on my ROW80-2 page.

** My apologies for not doing my part lately.  I’m hoping to have a bit more time soon to catch up on my fellow ROWers, especially the ones who’ve been so kind to me.

I had a very productive day, writing-wise, yesterday.  Almost half of my weekly total of 5300 words came from that session.  I call that a win.  Editing my novel was not a win, still deferred.  Beta reading was fast and furious early in the week when I traveled, but fell off when I returned home.

I received my galley to proof (well, a link to it online) for an anthology that will contain one of my short stories.  I mostly wanted to rewrite it but I don’t think that’s allowed at this point.  Wah.  Oh well.  It is what it is.  I don’t suppose I’d ever be 100% happy with it.  It’s due 4/19 but I need to ship my measly four edits off today, tomorrow if I’m not able to muster up a bit more energy than what I currently possess.  Looks like publish date is end of this month–super duper fast.
