I had a teacher in high school who used the word “administrivia” all the time. Makes me smile.
Anyway, a few non-WIPpet items for this Wednesday afternoon:
- Update on the schedule thing: I forgot about mornings when I wake up feeling like a troll just caved in my skull with a mallet and my back is so stiff I can’t move. Oops. Well, I’m fine now and AJ’s working tonight, so today’s not a total loss. All it took was lying on my back, legs up like a dead bug (there’s a mental image for you) for a while to get my back moving and some Advil and caffeine for the head, and I’m good to go. *cue inspirational music*
- Those plants I mentioned the other day are now outside in the garden. No hidden message about writing here, I just want you all to cross your fingers, toes, lungs, whatever that at least some of them survive. 🙂
One more thing: I think I’m going to join ROW80. Because, y’know, I had Camp NaNoWriMo last month, I have JuNoWriMo next month and then Camp in July and NaNo proper in November, but I need something to fill the gaps. *cough* I will always be a NaNo gal first and foremost, but I see no reason I can’t do both. It’s all about goals and accountability, right?
So I guess I needs to set me some goals to get through until June 20, hmm? Let’s see…
I don’t know when I’ll get back to editing Bound, so those goals will have to wait. As far as writing, I’m going to say 1,000 words a day on the vampire thing I posted from earlier today. I don’t expect it’ll be novel-length, so I could be done before the end of this round. We’ll see how she goes. Also, 3+ blog posts a week (not a problem so far)
Did I do that right?
If you think you might want to join in (set your own goals, report back on Wednesdays and Sundays), check it out here and sign up here.

That’s what it feels like! Sometimes I cross my arms to make it more authentic. 😉

LOL. I will totally be thinking of this in yoga class tonight. Name the pose and I will recommend it.

ROW80 is a drug. A very addicting drug. At least it was for me. Best wishes for you plants. I’m sending them green thoughts. 😉

I think I’m going to jump in on Row80 in July. I feel like I got a lot more done that way. Sometimes you just need to be held accountable and that’s what gets them goals done.

I’m a NaNo Gal first too! Just did CampNaNoWriMo as well. 😀 We’ll be trucking through the rest of ROW80 together. LOL. Good luck with your goals! See you next update.

Kate, you make me feel lazy. But I wold like to see what ROW80 is all about.

Wow, that is a great goal..I need to work on my writing but I keep saying when summer comes along LOL

I take my hat off to all your NaNo and related pursuits. Once a year is enough for me! But yes, do join ROW80, it is good fun!

I’m a fan of ROW80, partly because it keeps you accountable, but largely because it gives you a list of great blogs to visit! It’s really nice seeing what other writers out there are doing, and knowing I’m not the only one struggling with whatever issue it happens to be this week. So welcome to the pack!

Thanks! I love getting to know other writers through WIPpet Wendesdays, so I look forward to doing the same with this. Thanks for stopping by!
