Today is Wednesday, right? I hope so. Then again, tomorrow and Friday my toddler's day care will be closed so I'll be bringing him to work with me. No actual work or internet surfing to be done the rest of the week, at least until nap time.
What am I working on today? Well, I have a list - 4 lists actually: my editor list, my writer list, my other list and my actual day job list.
The day job list isn't exhaustive; it can't be or otherwise I wouldn't be blogging!
The editor list is something I make each week, to make sure I'm on task with my own schedule, etc. My toddler has been sick so my To Dos and well-orchestrated plans have been shot all to hell (he's doing better now - thank goodness).
The other list...that's a little more complicated. I'm thinking of starting a business so I'm working on designing a website and other business-related ; I'm working on my new blog The Book Geek, trying to get it organized and updated; Out of the Blogosphere too (upcoming releases and guest bloggers).
The writing list is an entirely new can of worms. I want to write in a specific genre, to have my actual real legal name attached to this genre. But I also want to write in another genre and in a moment of sleep deprevation two days ago, discovered yet another genre. The third genre is more of a writing stretch since it is completely out of my comfort zone. I'm not deluding myself that I'll be successful in this third genre (okay, maybe a little) but I'm going to at least try it. Shouldn't writers push their own boundaries? Shouldn't we try to grow in our writing abilities? I and my 2 pen names certainly hope so!

My toddler has been sick too. He has the worst cold. I call him the Li'l Snot Monster right now.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty blog, Jana. I'll have to add you to my blog roll, fellow editor. :-D
