As far as writing goes, I didn't get much done this weekend. And guess what, I still haven't finished The Book Thief either! I'm am really close to the end, but I'm afraid something bad is going to happen and I can't bring myself to pick it up! Plus, I got a Kindle for Christmas and I've been playing around with that for the last few days. So far, I've only downloaded some of the free books that I never got around to reading: The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes
, Alice in Wonderland
and Emma
. Let me know if you have any suggestions on how to get the most out of my new toy! Okay, now onto the writing. Before the holidays, I did send out a few chapters to one of my writing group buddies to read over. I haven't done much else but that. Since I have the entire week off, I'm hoping to make a lot of progress this week. These are my to-do's:
- Update draft for revisions I made on the paper copy.
- Complete changing the tense from past to present.
- Finish The Book Thief
- Plan the menu for a New Year's Brunch we're having on Sunday.
I really need to hit my WIP hard. My IRL CP has my revised first 100 pages, but I need to give the rest of it some major attention. I'm getting to the point where it doesn't make a lot of sense, and I need to fix that.
ReplyDeleteYou totally had a free pass on this weekend and not getting a lot done! But this week I have a full plate of things to finish writing/blogging/reading wise so I'll be cheering for your progress too!
ReplyDeleteSherlock Holmes was the first thing I downloaded to my Kindle this weekend too :). Are you as obsessed with your Kindle as I am? I never thought I would say this, but I feel like I want to read everything on it now.
ReplyDeleteI seriously need to get back to work my WIP. I took a few days off while I was out of town for the holidays and then my laptop power cord broke and I couldn't get a new one until today so I had three more unexpected days off. Hopefully the break will leave me feeling refreshed and ready to get down to it.
