Happy Leap Year
Editing
I completed A’s manuscript and am reading over J’s one last time.
I’ve added the info to Deb’s manuscript, and she likes it. Yay!
Carolyn and I will be going through her manuscript again sometime in March.
Two of my friends asked me to do some editing for them. One has written a selection of poems. The other is working on a novel. I am truly honoured…and always just a tad leery about editing for friends.
Writing
My blogging is now behind schedule because I attended the birth of a wee one. I’m okay with that.
Submissions
It looks like a weather warning just might keep me from meeting with my co-author and a publisher today. I’ll have to see if the forecast has changed by morning.
Other than that, it’s just the same old/same old.
Reading
Life, In Spite of Me - I highly recommend it.
Dawn Comes Early - such a fun read
The Other Baby Book – I’m glad I list it here. It reminds me to get started reading it.
Other books – I need to get serious about the books I really should be reading.
Volunteer Work
I’m pretty much up-to-date with my responsibilities.
Exercise & Fitness
Full-body Workout – I still hope to get at least two in this week.
Cardio – This is pretty much a wash for now.
Sessions with Workout Buddy – Now that Baby has arrived and I’m feeling better, I just might try to get together with Ann at least once this week.
Housekeeping
I’m not getting anything extra done, but I’m doing not too bad keeping up with the day-to-day.
ROW Specific Goals
Check in twice per week – on track
Visit fellow ROWers’ sites – I hope to leap by today. (I had to include one bad pun, right?)
Continue connecting with my writing buddy regularly – We’ve decided we’d like to live closer to one another. (Thanks for the idea of pairing up with writing buddies, Kait. I love making new friends.)
Today’s Thought
Let’s use this extra day to be incredible productive – maybe even devote it entirely to writing.
I would love it if my friends asked me for editing work… I mean, none of the ones who need it are writers… but well, the do NEED it!
And then there are the times I need an editor. I hit send, post, or reply before I should and then think, “Wow! What a great ad for my services.” (grin)
Keep these posts coming. Love the updates.
You are such a faithful reader and such a good friend. I’d think you’d be bored of these by now, Trace.
Great check-list, Steph! Sounds like you’re right on track for this year. Weather warning?? Uhoh. No fun.
Not too many of them in Bermuda I’d imagine. (grin)
I am kind of in awe at the amount you have accomplished – I really need to figure out how to skip eating and sleeping, that would give me more time…
No need to be in awe. I just haven’t learned the fine art of saying no yet. ;^D
Being present for a wee one’s grand entrance is an awesome reason to be a little behind. You’re doing great anyway. Good job!
It is indeed. I accomplished a lot yesterday and am back to my normal sleeping patterns. (grin)
Thanks for stopping by, Yolanda. Have a fantastic day.
Hi Steph
Good luck with those weather warnings and your meetings. Hope the sun came out for you, though here it’s just rain rain rain.
Cas
I stayed put, but my co-author and the publisher met – and things went well. Hooray!
