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.

WIP Name Title Revealed

I figure it's time to reveal the name of my WIP. For some reason, I hold off on the big here's-the-name-of-my-book announcement for a while. I think it's because the project is my baby. I like to have all the books control in my hand, so I keep her hidden for a while.
Now, I've gotta be brave and let her go, at least her name. I'll for sure let the pretty princess go on submission sometime this year, though. *crossing fingers*

Until then, all you get is the name of my book...

*drum roll please*

BOUND

Yes, a simple one-syllable name with more meaning than meets the eye when it's placed in the context of what my WIP is about. I have the other names of the books in the trilogy picked out already. You'll find them out later. I can't wait to write those books, that's for sure.

How do you go about releasing the name of your book? Right off the bat? Wait for a while? Or not tell anyone until it's actually published? Do tell...
