Month of April Goals



First of all, I need to give you the update of how my Month of March Goals panned out!

March Goals:
  • Finish another round of edits/revisions of my WIP and hand it off to CP's CHECK (Went well. I'm on my way with my WIP--BOUND)
  • Participate in the second I'm a Platform-Building Campaigner Challenge CHECK (This turned out to be sooooo fun. The flash fiction I wrote has actually inspired a future writing project--bring on some sci-fi. Check it out here!)
  • Finish reading Forest Born by Shannon Hale CHECK (Great book!)
  • Read Pandemonium by Lauren Oliver (Still working on it--Pretty far in though)
  • Go see The Hunger Games on March 23 at 8:30PM (yes, I've already got tickets) CHECK (Loved it)
  • Have a supercool St. Patrick's Day party. It's my favorite holiday. :D I'll call this one a check even though I cancelled the party due to feeling sick. Phooey!
  • Not go crazy while waiting to hear back from editors as my book, FÉLICITÉ FOUND, is on submission No check... what kind of person wouldn't go crazy waiting for a pub deal? Anyone? haha
Now for my Month of April Goals:
  • Have a super awesome 30th Birthday!
  • Try not to get depressed for not being married by my 30th Birthday
  • Finish Pandemonium by Lauren Oliver
  • Finish a revision of my book, FÉLICITÉ FOUND
  • Complete an edit of my WIP, BOUND
  • Will not buy any clothing *crossing fingers*
  • Read The Carrier of the Mark by Leigh Fallon
How are your goals going? What are your Month of April goals?

Writing. Jewels.

  4. Great goals for March and April. And Happy Birthday! Wherever you are in your life right now is where you're supposed to be :)

    I'm getting my April goals organized now, but getting in more writing time on my WIP is definitely the biggest.

  5. I know what you mean about being depressed about not being married, even though I'm 23. I had goals to be married by twenty because that was the age when my parents married. My biggest concern would be not to have a child by 30 because I was a child development major and I know that the risks jump when you turn 30, but not too bad. It's okay. I'm sure there's one in your future. :)

    Good luck with your revisions and birthday fun!

  6. I don't usually pay attention to people's marital status. But now I'm thinking, Hello! Julia King is a free woman! I need to find the coolest single guys I know and give them a heads-up. How could pass up that deal?!! Beautiful, talented, writing, and cool. Of course, single is just great! The right guy and right timing will come to you. But dang! You're a catch, girlfriend.

    Happy 30th. I hope you have a lovely birthday and have a fabulously productive month. :)
