It's weird to finish a draft and suddenly not have a project to work on, but that's where I am right now. I have to keep resisting the urge to dive back into my draft and make changes I know I need to make. But I also know there's no point doing that because when I go back to it in a few weeks, I'll find multiple things I need to change and changes I make now might not make it through anyway.
So I'll wait.
I'll write some short stories. I'll play around with the MG story I've been moonlighting with. I'll read. I'll read a lot. I'll go to the movies without feeling guilty about not writing in that time. I'll do reviews for my crit group. And if anyone needs a beta read, this would be a good time to ask me. I'll have time.
I'll do some marketing stuff for Standing Too Close which must be getting close to its print release. I'll send more queries for A Stranger to Kindness (without that one word in the synopsis).
What I won't do is think about Arlo and Devon.
What are your goals this week?
