This is my work in progress list… and how I keep track of my word count.
This was a week of ups and downs. Migraine hit. my hand got a steroid shot for a “trigger finger.” So I was unable to use my dominant hand for half of the week. However the pain let up within 2 days of the shot. I still have a knot but I have better mobility than I did.
Most of the actual writing was done in the last two days. I am just glad to have use of my hand.

Stolen Skins took me more than a little longer than I expected this week. I submitted it to Fae Corps Publishing for Across the stolen seas. (the process is slightly different for the approval on this one, so if you submit something to it we will be about 3 weeks for the approval or denial of work on this.)
I finished my library book and plan to do it for tomorrow’s review. I spent a bit of time reading this week, so I did less poetry. When I pick up a book I devour it. I tend to go through about 500 pages in a day. For some reason I struggle with my consumption of reading materials until midway through the year. Then I will be consistent in my reading process for the next few months. I will be doing a couple of ARC books for my friends this week coming. (gotta love having author friends) I also have at least 3 submitted manuscripts to read for Fae corps publishing. (Threatened me with a good time there.)
As I am not focusing on Serena’s story this week I hope I will be able to get more poems written but I don’t know. I am going to be hiring (starting Monday) Pic (partners in crime) editing to assist with Kingdoms of Sin. I have worked with them before and they are really good. I hope they will get me back to writing it. I want to release it next year if possible.

Due to getting used to a new med I slept two days this week and spent a lot of time reading. I didn’t even try to make the daily writing goals. Still, I don’t think I did too badly.
The Deadline for Stolen skins is approaching fast. I am going to be digging in and finishing it this week.
Because I feel lazy – and I really wasn’t – I am likely to be doing more writing this week. Mental health is a bit fun like that sometimes.
I am going to be doing the art corner instead of Tuesday Tunes this week. I did some resin work and I really want to share it.
I don’t often submit my poetry unless it is requested. The reason is I end up getting rejection notices more often than not. It makes my thoughts about my poetry sour. I realize that everyone gets rejection notices and they don’t mean anything about my poetry but they make it harder to put the poetry out there. Part of my own mind on this is I have likely chosen the wrong one to send.
I know that they were not my readers, my readers enjoy my poetry. still rejection stinks. so I will likely either hesitate or decide to push it until I find someone that takes my work.

As can be seen this week was a busy writing week. I think I got poems in almost all the open volumes.
I got word counts in a couple of places. I also looked into hiring a developmental editor (Partners in Crime book services)
for Kingdoms of Sin. Mostly because I would love to see it released next year. This week should be the usual posts.

This week I squirrelled a lot instead of writing. Some weeks are more art than words, and this is one of those. As a matter of fact I don’t want to deal with the book review tomorrow so I am planning on an art post instead.
