This morning, I was planning to check back on my set of summer writing goals to see how I did. Turns out I didn’t make a summer list. Just as well, as my accomplishment rate would have been depressingly low.
I mean, I did have my monthly Status Sheets and my weekly To Do lists and such, and I was busy all the time, squeezing in a couple of work-for-hire projects and a bit of trade writing here and there. My biggest accomplishment was writing a picture book manuscript (prose, not rhymed nor poetry) and getting it into decent shape. I’m taking it to both my crit groups in the next week and, after one more revision, will send it to my agent for her thoughts.
I guess maybe it’s time to look at my 2010 writing goals and see where I stand on those. The year is 2/3 over–gulp. I don’t have the courage to face that post today, but tomorrow, I’ll hold myself accountable…
