Holy Snappin' , Let's Write! May 1-7, 2006

I'm still in the middle of the big novel push of 2006. Join me, list your writing goal here and next Monday I will post again, and we can do some virtual, high five, Holy Slappin'.

Thanks to Martha Brockenbrough for the great idea! Check out her columns for Encarta and The Mommy Chronicles.

My goal for May 1- May 7 is 5000 words. What is your goal?

I will finish doing research in all the library books I have checked out then begin editing based on the comments of my amazing critique group. Jen

Five thousand words! Holy snappin!

My goal is more modest: to finish the rough outline for my fantasy novel. OK, and I also have to get started on an MSN Entertainment piece about doomed romances on film. Anyone have nominations?

Holy snappin. Nice idea, Marthabee! My goal is to sweet talk my friend into watching Miss Lyrabelle 2 days/wk. And then write more on the book, and hope it's pretty good, because a window has presented itself. Maybe. Snap your fingers for me.

Doomed romances...Darth Vadar?

Hey Roomie (I'm on LJ, btw)!!! Snappity snap! Finishing up the illos and Author's Note to sub to an agent, publishers and grant commission (Duke Day for Annie)-- say the word I'll send the illos! I need to get my own website up and running, and finish the second edit on Sarah, the midgrade. Found a contact just down the road from the new place-- they run a farm and she's more than willing to be a reader on Sara, but also for a couple of future projects I had in mind, so that's cool. So goal THIS week. Finish and sub Annie. Lay out a calendar for my projects. Try to get a handle on the website. And if there's any time, space or dimension left, plug on Sara.

So great to see you working along-- and thanks for conference notes. I had to miss the local one because of finances this year. I'm getting my bit filled through osmosis!

Martha would you consider Like Water For Chocolate, a doomed romance? And of course a sucker for Casablanca.

Goals. Yes. Goals are good. It's already Thursday, so I'll keep them short:
Write the *&(#^ next chapter of my early-reader-in-progress, that for some reason I've avoided for the last month.
Cross off two more things from my to-do list. (Won't bore you with details.
