I did it ... almost!

And so begins another week! How we are halfway through January already, I have no idea!

Thanks to all of you for your input about editing Game On and re-writing If I Let You Go. I had a look back over Game On and it isn't half as bad as I thought it was. In my head, it's a big mess of horrendous word use and bad grammar. The reality is - it's actually pretty good. Well, I think so, anyway lol! So, I might just leave it be. But there will be more IILYG from the male POV soon-ish.

Last week I set my first ever list of goals. Well, the first list I've ever made public, anyway. Here's what I achieved:

Schedule all blog posts I have for other bloggers to promote/reveal covers so I don't have to do it at the last minute - DONE!

Post prizes from Blindsided Blog Tour (Some have already gone out, but I still have more to do) All but one have been posted now. I should get to the last one this week.

Write up guest post for Cassie Mae's blog and email it Done and emailed.

Read a couple more chapters of The Fire In Fiction - Fail. But in my defense, I got Save The Cat this week, and read that instead!

Finish Rouge by Leigh Talbert Moore - I'm nearly done, but I keep getting distracted by all the other things I need to do Done, and then I also read Ocean Kills by Jade Hart, which might I say, is a work of genius!

Quit daydreaming, I don't have time (LOL!)- I failed here, but most of you said it's okay to daydream so I don't feel too guilty. :p

Oh ... and write! Hmm. I did some writing, so I guess that counts. For the most part, though, my WIP stressed me out and I didn't know what to do with it. Hopefully this week it will be easier.

I'm not setting any goals for this week, mainly because I'm not sure what I'll have time for just yet. I have a bunch of stuff happening at home so I will just do what I can and get back to my goals next week. :D Happy Monday, everyone!

  2. Well done on achieving so many goals, Kyra, that's impressive! I tried goal-setting over the weekend with the novel, but completely underestimated the work needing done! Hope you have a good week ahead :) x

IWSG- Finding My Way Back

  I haven't done an IWSG post in years, but it's nice to be back!  And I guess that is what my post will be about today.  Over the last few years, and probably since I stopped blogging, I lost my way a bit. I've met a LOT of authors on Facebook and have made some amazing friends, but there is nothing quite like the support of the blogging community.  But now I have to find my way back in. Do people remember me? Do people want to know what I've been doing? It's quite scary coming back after being away. Thankfully, those who have found me have been so welcoming!  But it's not just about finding my way back with blogging. I am still trying to find my feet in terms of writing again. Two years of hardly any words coming out has messed with my head.  Can I still write as well as before? If not, will it come back over time? And again, will the people who used to read my books still want to hear from me?  I look at the books I've released and wonder where those inc

Bloghop of Joy

Good morning! It's time for the Bloghop of Joy!, hosted by myself and Clare Dugmore! In these cold, winter months, everything can seem kind of ... bleak. However, every now and again, something small will happen that makes us smile again. It could be a random memory, something you see on TV, overhearing something that makes you laugh out loud - just that one thing that makes the clouds part, and the sunshine appear again. We're not talking life-changing moments, just the little things that inexplicably make us smile. All you have to do to be a part of this happy hop is sign up on the Linky List, and on March 1st, post your list of joy - with a minimum of five things that put a spring back in your step!  So, what is on my list? The Ducktales theme tune Seriously, I can be in the worst mood ever, but as soon as I hear this, everything seems better! The sound of a baby laughing Is there anything more adorable than the chuckle of a small child? Puts a smile on my fa
