Our Weekly Mission Statement

Last week saw me fall short on one day--I got Days 1-4 done just fine, though one of them was a little less intensive due to a visit from a very old friend from out of town, while Day 5 disappeared into the hole of Valentine's Day plans. Given that my partner saw fit to praise my disciplined approach to this whole "budding writer" shtick I don't feel particularly bad about letting myself go for a special occasion. So, we'll call last week's mission Complete. Now, for this week:

Day 1: Finish editing "Those Who Don't".
Day 2: Sekrit Projekt.
Day 3: Post-peer review edits on "Those Who Don't"; submit to a magazine.
Day 4: Edit "A Million Stories".
Day 5: Sekrit Projekt.

Exact order of days to be rearranged as I see fit, submission to happen before midnight on Sunday regardless.

One thing I have noticed I need to change is writing more. Returning to the dating scene and a recent resurgence in my gaming activities have dented my reading patterns significantly, and it is something I need to fix. I find myself surfing through TV Tropes at the end of the night rather than writing, which is a problem both for my brain (as intellectual as TV Tropes is, I can only derive so much from repeated mention of Shinji Ikari) and for my sleep schedule, as TV Tropes keeps me vertical. So, it is time to go back to the old world of reading and dozing. I think perhaps a slightly lighter book is needed, as a break from the joyful density of Rudyard Kipling.

Coming up next: a movie review!
