September Goals:
* Finish up work on Omnibus and order copies for preorders
* Finish Rooted if it's the last thing I do
* Work on QSAL
* Work on TAOR/Project R
September Accomplishments: I wound up taking a break from writing for about three weeks, which is pretty unusual for me. And it was great! Of course, I was still working on writerly things (as one does, the entrepreneur life never really slows down) but I didn't follow any expectations for myself.
I did finish up work on the Legends of Lanaria omnibus (now vol. 1 and 2) and got copies ordered for those as well as The Queen of Lanaria. Those are all ready to roll now and I just sent the first batch of preorders out to readers. I have one extra set that will be dropped off at The Paper Garden Co. sometime soon, so if you're local, keep your eyes peeled! I brainstormed a few ideas, researched for QSAL and some other ideas I have on the backburner, and worked on a list of major revisions, once again, for Rooted. Will they stick this time? Oh golly, I hope so My fingers are crossed! I also checked out proofreading changes for my poem which will be published in Of Storm & Sea.
In light of the assassination in Utah, I also was hit with a few new ideas that I will be committing to prayer before I focus on them.
I worked on an overarching series plot for the Bethlehem Belle series, which I've been meaning to work on but hadn't because of the Lanaria omnibus editions and Rooted. Plus I prepped for RealmieWriMo which will be happening in October! I have several story ideas I want to start work on, and then we'll see which ones I end up prioritizing for publication first.
At the beginning of September, I also had the privilege of speaking at my local fair about one of my devotionals, Back to Him, where I met another local author who has published another book that is very similar in tone to BTH! It was exciting and a privilege to meet her. If you'd like to check out her book as well, click HERE.
