I didn’t get a whole lot accomplished today. I started my day reading your blogs. Imagine my excitement to see Karen O.’s wonderful review of Will O’ the Wisp. I reblogged it, then became a sloth.
I read some of my short stories and improved the prose a little. I exchanged emails with a few people who offered to interview me on their blogs. Some things we have to keep up with.
I also booked my Will O’ the Wisp blog tour. It will begin in early April sometime. That means I have a bit more proofreading to do on the upcoming posts.
I should have written. I also should have pruned the one remaining tree that needs it. I just vegged out. I watched a few old episodes of The Twilight Zone. I’ll finish with a beer while catching up with The Walking Dead, and may read a bit before bedtime.
I suppose I accomplished some things, but it was just one of those days. Go ahead and shame me with all your accomplishments in the comments. Some days I need to step away from it all. Did anyone do something fun today?
Wow…that was busier than most of my work days π

I think we’re all driven people. You’ll write it, and find personal time later.

My reward for finishing a book is pizza. I actually don’t have it during the first draft writing. Not unless someone else gets it, so I’m with reach of my reward . . . whatever works. π

That’s brutal. I would have missed out on pizza for about six months now.

No. Is the short answer. Chores and not much else. Hope we have a more productive week ahead. Although in terms of writing, monday and friday are already out…

I probably won’t write again until Saturday. I have that paycheck to earn.

I just mentioned to Charles. I think we’re all driven people. We set our own deadlines and pressure ourselves to meet them. I’ve adopted that forward motion is enough. Some days it’s a ton, some days it’s microscopic. As long as it’s forward momentum, it counts.

Let me see, what did I do today? I did laundry, went to Target and Whole Foods, went to the Pet store, cleaned the saltwater tank, realigned the rocks in the turtle tank, did some more laundry, rested and read blogs and now I am cooking dinner. Going to watch Walking Dead as well, missed last week’s episode so have to catch up on that and then todays episode. Hope they kill lots of zombies, hope they do something, anything. And then back to the grind tomorrow to earn my honest crust as my dear old Dad says.

And not really that much fun. But it least it is all done for the week – so all I have to do is go to work, come home and make dinner for my growing lads.

You deserve a day off! I didn’t do too much–some chores around the house and a bit of test writing. My husband and I went out to a concert last night, something we don’t do too often. It was folk singer Tom Rush at the World Cafe Live in Philadelphia. That was fun–dinner there, too!

Those chores get us all eventually. The evening sounds fun though.

Aww, dude – don’t feel bad. I wasted a good 2 hours this morning, and possibly as many this afternoon vegging out. Seriously. If I don’t get my butt up and moving, I’m going to start sending down roots into the lino. I have had such a case of the lazies lately. So at least you’re in good company… π

You need to force the issue. You may need to email the music video from my other post to the lawyer. Then go beach combing or something. TZ is a work in progress. There are a lot of episodes.
