So...last week was kind of an exciting one in the publishing world, eh? I'm not going to name drop or anything (did that on the other blog already), but suffice it to say I read a ton of blog posts last week. To the detriment of my writing, perhaps (probably) – considering they all pretty much said the same thing and I'm only just caught up on my writing. But I wouldn't be a very good writer if I didn't gawk at current events, right?

Moving on...

I have postcards with the Tempest & Desert Heat covers on them – the first I've done as sort of "draft cover cards". I'll send these out to anyone who emails me with your name & address – all stamped and everything, first come, first serve. I have 6 Desert Heat and 7 Tempest. These are the basis for the cover cards I'm designing next month, which will have the cover art on the front and the blurb on the back, with my signature for ebook buyers who still like to collect cover art. I'm looking forward to the finished product!

I also got my new mini-card bookmarks and business cards – all have my covers on them, so if you'd like a set for yourself or to give away, send a SASE to me at PO Box 21153, Billings MT, 59104.

So what's going on this week? Well, it's our last week for the "Sex on the Page" series, and we're talking about those "Dirty Details" (like bodily fluids, etc). Visit Carol B.'s blog on Tuesday for her post, and then stop back here Thursday for my take on the same. More from the ranch on Wednesday, and on Saturday, an excerpt from a love story by author Greg Messel.

Goal Reports

Last week was one of those "barely kept my head above water" weeks. I kept wanting to get ahead, and never could quite manage to, even though I started ahead. It's very frustrating. So I got all my serial installments done, and I managed a workout every day, but that's it. Like I said, very frustrating.

But the only thing to do is move forward, of course...

Goals for the Week

Writing

• 6 serial scenes

• Crits

• Anything extra on two current drafts

Business

• Write two guest posts

• Fill out a long-overdue interview

• Send out package & postcards

Personal

• Keep up the workouts.

• Do laundry before 10pm Sunday night

• Do taxes and pay bills
  
  

And that's it for me – aiming for moderation this week. What's on your plate? Or page, as it were....
