Weekly Goals 10-2-25

 I ended up having a much busier weekend than I anticipated and I didn't have time to even start on the revisions to A Stranger to Kindness that I want to make.  So that's my main goal for this week.  To get those revisions started/done so I can get the book out to some other readers while I start compiling a query list.

One of my CPs is a nurse and she told me that some of the medical stuff in the book isn't 100% correct, so that's going to need to be changed, among other stuff.  But overall, the revisions aren't going to be major - unlike some other books I've written which basically needed to be gutted and re-strung.

I aim to write at least four pieces of flash fiction this week too. Just to keep that writing muscle limber until I decide on a new novel to write.  I know I have a few that I started and didn't finish for whatever reason, so it's probably time to go back and take a look at those to see if any of them are worth resurrecting.  

Actually, you could help...  

Would you be more interested in: 

a) a book about a girl and her band who decide to try and rig an American Idol type contest to get their own music on the map

b) a book about a girl going on a road trip with her boyfriend and her brother's ex to meet the people who received her brother's donated organs

c) a book about a boy who is psychologically abused by his girlfriend

d) a book about a child criminal turning 18 and being released under a new name for her safety

e) a book about a girl going to a prestigious ballet school and getting sucked into a dark underworld after an injury sidelines her for a time.

I think those are the ones I have lurking that I might be interested in working on.  There are others, but I don't feel like any of them have any real potential so there's probably not a lot of point to dragging them back out.

I have a heavy gym schedule over the next couple of weeks because it's our new release period, so I'm teaching a lot of new classes which I'm not 100% confident with yet.  But I'm sure we'll get there.  Sunday is going to be fun...  I'm going to be teaching/participating in 3 classes in a row, all with different choreography.  That will be a challenge!

What are your goals this week?

  1. It sounds like you're really busy. Good luck with the new classes. I like idea #2 the best.
