My Monday Miscellany is becoming more and more miscellaneous. I guess that’s the point.
So here I am, showing up and still not showing up. Very funny moment captured by CAPTAINSTUPENDOUS.
Have to add that the Wall Street Journal just bashed the edgy YA writers. You get the Raspberry Award from an edgy YA writer who thinks these books help teens. They can help parents and teachers too. Does the WSJ have it’s head in the sand?
As to my ROW80 this week, I’m beginning to get the hang of this goal setting; now I have to get the hang of meeting those goals. Last Weeks Goals weren’t too tough, but I still fell a tad short.
1. Finish the short story for 2009 Debs Ebook anthology.
YES! I DID THIS. IT’S DONE. IT’S READY TO GO. HOPE TO HAVE A COVER TO SHARE WITH ALL OF YOU SOON.
2. Write at least 1,000 words on my WIP.
OOPS! I DIDN’T QUITE MAKE THIS, BUT I IMPROVED ON ABOUT 1,000 WORDS. DO I GET AT LEAST MY E FOR EFFORT?
3. Find the top of my desk.
I DID IT! THEN I LOST IT AGAIN THE NEXT DAY. CAN I KEEP PUTTING THIS AS A GOAL EACH WEEK?
4. Find that pair of Sexy Butt Jeans that Kait Nolan, another ROW80 blogger, just reminded me I should be wearing.
I FOUND THEM, BUT MAYBE IT WASN’T A GOOD IDEA.

New Goals for this Week:
1. Edit the 41,000+ words.
2. Add another 1,000 words.
3. Return the sexy butt jeans.
4. Find a title for my WIP that works.
Coming Soon: Some guests with things to say about writing and their books. Look for Cheryl Rainfield, Jo Ramsey, Kelly Hashaway and her wonderful dog, Dash. Quite a variety. Should be fun.
