Here are some of the goals posted last month.

Daniel Escurel Occeno My goal for March is to self-publish, already written, 3 novelettes and one novel on eBooks.

Jonathan Lazar Finish up marketing materials for the Tucson Festival of Books that I will attending this weekend. While also finishing draft 2 revisions of a novella

Hayley Dory Glasson Lots of writing so far so good with approximately 1200 words over 2 days

Lois Paige Simenson Revise a short story for a literary reading this week.

Audrey Paulduro Baby steps. Create an outline!!

Emily Dills 2k words a day

Daniel Escurel Occeno I added First Time Traveling Machine and White Spiritu to my editing list for the week. Both are novelettes.

Lois Paige Simenson Complete rewrite for a story submitted to an east coast publication, resubmitting at editor’s request ?

Alisha Vincent Schedule more signings for summer.

Beth McGee Website is set up, now I just need some posts before sharing. Will be working on those this week and further development of my book outline from the mindmap. Also, frying my brain on legal briefs for a municipal project. Not my favorite task, but necessary.

Daniel Escurel Occeno To continue in trying to figure out how to continue self-publishing of eBooks and of paperbacks while I market in the digital world of the Internet with no money or at least very limited.

Daniel Escurel Occeno It is not a doom and gloom. It is more tedious and painstaking.

Michael Jason Stokes Somehow find a way to complete my upcoming short story challenge, work at least one (hopefully two) of the ones I have almost ready for completion and get my freelance work turned in, while pretending to have any kind of life outside of ‘work.’

Tammy Murray Trying to get my fricken taxes done so I can focus on the sequel to my first novel. ?

Sabari Ram trying to do writing about a topic per day so that i can learn new things everyday about writing. also having an idea to write a story but having trouble at starting it

Michael Jason Stokes Also I thought maybe I’d take my buddies Cameron and Sloane out for a little fun. Play a little hookie.

Daniel Escurel Occeno To self-publish my novelette, An American at Manila, in eBook format. It is a historical romance at 1941 World War 2 Japanese Invasion.

Lael Braday Finish the short story I started yesterday, query an agent I’m researching and write, write, write more on the next novel. 🙂

Beth McGee Make a public presentation on a municipal project I’ve been writing for for more than 2 years. Begin editing my finished audio book recordings.

Audrey Paulduro I have been journaling my progress with my plants!!! So awesome!!
