Quill, Parchment, & Ink

I’m not even going to attempt to go over what I did last month because um… I have no idea a) what I did last month and b) what happened to August. So *looks around* *throws August’s goals out the window*. Okay, those are gone. I’m starting over fresh and clean and going to attempt to do… something, this month. I’m not entirely sure what, but something.

Short Term Goals
1. Write a minimum of 200 words a day. (No skipped days if at all possible due to number 4.)

2. Continue working on the fics on the Fic List. Hopefully completing two or more during the month.

3. Continue to write and complete Weekly Goals on WDC.

4. Work on Give it 100!, keep track of progress and remember to support my fellow participants.

5. Work on making Christmas and birthday presents.

6. Apply to a few more jobs—if I can locate something to apply to.


Long Term Goals

1. Organize my DVDs—the list. (Once I get the list organized, I might have hope for my discs, but the list first, then the discs.)

2. Begin sorting and editing stories for anthologies.


Work Goals/ Plans
1. Write a FB post per week

2. Work on Google Docs to get it up and running.

I’ve revamped my goals slightly for this month, changing some of them slightly and deleting others. I also added some from my new job that I started today (4/2). Hopefully this will help me accomplish more of them.


( Goals )

I decided to update my goals each month instead of leaving them the same until I completed them all. That way I can change them as I finish them and I feel like maybe I’m accomplishing something. So here’s my goals for the month of February. I’m probably not getting them done at the beginning each month, but I’ll try to get it done close to the beginning.


( Short Term Goals )

( Long Term Goals )The Fic List all goes to the same list, but they all pertain to different parts of the goals so I wanted to keep linking them.

1. Write at least 200 words a day each day; starting with January 8th. I will give myself four days off.


2. Continue working on my Fic to Finish list. I’d like to get at least two of them finished, if not more. I redid the list so I don’t have a ton of extra stories on it. Hopefully this will help.


3. Next sewing project is a couple of little things I’m doing as a favor for my aunt. I’ve gotten one done; the next is started (it’s two bibs, a hat, booties, and a set of mittens.) I have one of the bibs done.


4. Continue working on the other. I posted one last time on the SA site and got promised the last five cards I need. So now I just need to get my arse in gear and get the book put together.


5. Look for other work. I realize this is rather broad, but since I have no idea what I want to do (other than getting out of where I am), I just want to look and apply. I have options. I am looking.


6. It has been suggested that I make some of my sewing projects to sell on Etsy. I am still unsure about this because I don’t know if it’s worth it monetarily considering how long it takes me to do one project. I’d still like opinions.


7. Look at submitting some writing work to publishers. (I’m not sure about this, but it’s a consideration.)


8. Continue cleaning out the attic at Gramma’s and going through boxes.
