May has been hectic to say the least. I’m not sure I even remember everything but here’s my recollection of how I did.
– Write 4 Flash Fiction Friday Stories (one per week)
I wrote more than 4 but missed one Friday posting.
– Update my Blog and Facebook Fan page (Both are titled ConniesRandomThoughts) weekly
I updated regularly.
– May Story A Day
Finished with 12 stories, two over my goal. Not every one is a gem but I’ll set them aside and one day I may actually fix them up and publish them.
– Submit Recall to Publisher or Self-Publish
I did finish Recall and on May 27th, self published it. I designed the cover and my hubby gets credit for the photography on the cover. I’m pretty excited because I think it’s the best story I’ve written yet. It can be found for purchase on CreateSpace, Smashwords, and Amazon.com.
– Begin revision of TriPoint
I actually started my revision a couple of months ago but with the April Camp NaNo and the May Story A Day, I let it drop. I’ll pick it back up now and try and get it done in June.
Other stuff not in the plan.
1. Signed up for and completed a Holly Lisle Flash Fiction course. That generated 5 flash fiction stories for May Story a Day.
2. Entered a Holly Lisle short story contest and actually had my story, A Taste of Copper, accepted for her anthology! It will be out sometime in July.
3. Entered a Scribophile contest and was not selected as the winner but I had enough confidence in the story to enter it in the Writers of the World contest for the 3rd quarter. I won’t hear a thing until late September.
4. Today I cleared the wreckage from my computer desk, putting things away and digging out my TriPoint story to continue its revision. Now I’m ready to get serious about finishing that revision and outlining my July Camp NaNo story. I’ve signed up on a different site, http://julnowrimo.com/ for my July efforts. Several of my Forward Motion friends love the site so I thought I’d try it out for the next book in the TriPoint series.
Here’s hoping your May was productive and your June will be a success!
Brilliant post. I’d really like to track my progression like this also.
