Fess Up Monday

Princess Monster is much improved today. I’m on vacation today, so Middle Monster and I slept in this morning. (If you want to snooze, MM is your best companion.)

Things I accomplished last week:

compiled a list of review sites
made my first homemade ARC
brainstormed prizes and strategy for the release
updated my website with release dates and links
sent out a few review requests and ARCs
completed the first round of edits on Survive My Fire
made a new ARC to include those edits
bombarded My Beloved Sis with e-mails about the revisions
signed up for 70 Days of Sweat
continued writing The Fire Within
brainstormed over the weekend for a virtual workshop topic for PBW’s Left Behind and Loving It

Whew. No wonder I’m exhausted!

This week, my to-do list is just as crazy:

mail out Secrets Rising to winner
continue writing for the 70 Days of Sweat
vitual workshop Left Behind and Loving It
Guest blog to run on May’s blog
more revisions to SMF if necessary
get excerpt of SMF up on the website
final installment of Hope’s Haven for Friday Snippets
write up blurb for Blood Rose — I need review requests going out ASAP for the August release
ARC of Blood Rose once I get the cover and blurb

I think that’s it, although I’m sure to add more items as the week progresses. See why I signed up for 70 Days of Sweat? Without the challenge, it’d be really easy to fall into bed without a single word written for the day. I’m determined to get The Fire Within finished despite the craziness of the next two weeks!

How about you?

Holy criminey, woman! That’s a lot of stuff. Way to go on the organization of it all.
My mind and desk look like an F-5 toddled on through and kept booking.
My writing plans? Work on Water Goddess. Send my ARC off to RT by the 13th. And write until my brain oozes out of my ear.

Uhhhhh…..I dunno.

I’m planning on writing every day and cleaning my house. That’s it. If I plan more than that I’m likely to melt.

Wowie, Joely! I bow to your amazing multitasking ability. Good luck with everything, and good luck with your sweating!

Me? Well, other than sweating every day, I’m gonna be keeping up with my blogs and with the housie chore stuff… if I multitask too much, I get downright spazzy — but I sure admire folks like you who excel at multitasking!

Of course sweating with Sven, Alison, and Co. every day. Working. Cleaning - MUST scrub my shower/tub. Did I mention write? Yes, that. More of it.

And - boggles - you’re a busy woman! Glad PM’s doing better.

My three days off were wonderful. I cleaned my kitchen and bathroom, rearranged my dining room/office, bought and put together a new dvdcase (that works perfectly as a bbokcase for mmps), finished a roll of film and got them developed and figured out how to download pictures from a disc to my computer and then post them on my blog (there’s also a picture of my psychokitty if you want to see her *g*), signed up for Sweating with Sven, and of course writing (and trying not to sweat- the heat index was 105-bleh). Must go write.

Mine, thankfully, is less crazy than yours. On second thoughts, lets cross out thankfully and replace it with hopefully.

I’ve to deal with the up to September schedule on my blog, and that includes Drollerie, Drollerie and more Drollerie–I like you guys, and all, but it’s a lot of work.

And Sweat70. Since so many people made me do it, I can’t forget Sweat70. How could I forget it? Grrrr…

Let me know if you want someone to go over anything for ya.

Sumo is the babe I like to cuddle to sleep in. My vacation is next week!

Awesome job on your sweating today!!! Keep sweating girl, I have Survive My Fire’s release marked on my calendar. Can’t wait to read it.

Thanks, everybody! It’s been a crazy year.

May, I know we’re gobbling you up whole! *sheepish* THANK YOU for all your help and work!
