July’s “To Do” List

I have a lot of projects that I want to work on during the month of July. It’s going to be a busy month. Here are some of the things I need to complete:

1-Misty Hills sequel

I have an Edit scheduled at the end of the month so priority goes to polishing up a respectable draft of the Misty Hills sequel. This novel has had its ups and downs. I’m not happy with the draft I submitted for the original edit so I have to focus on getting a quality copy out.

2-Camp NANOWRIMO 

Camp NANOWRIMOI’m going to use Camp NANOWRIMO to make sure I write daily. My project, YW #2, is the sequel to the novel I started last year and didn’t finish at last year’s camp (mentioned below). I’ve got a new set of KBoard people in the cabin so I’m looking forward to forging some new friendships.

3-YW Project #1

I have to rewrite YW Project #1. I’m starting with 28,766 words. The goal is to have a 60K manuscript by the end of the month.

4-Outline the third novel in the Misty Hills series

This is important because I may need to incorporate details into the sequel. If it’s not done correctly, I may be shooting myself in the foot. I’m a pants-er by nature so outlining will be a challenge but I read a really good book recently and I’m looking forward to incorporating the techniques I studies on to the third book.

Have I put too much on my plate? I think it is a lot but it will come down to time management. I have to start prioritizing writing to social functions. We’ll see if I manage to complete these four goals by month’s end.
