Done

I haven’t blogged much this year, but I have been writing. I achieved a big goal, finishing the first draft of a mystery. I also attended a writers’ conference, talked to an agent and, at one time, had eight short stories out in the world at once.

I did it and because I did it, I can place a check mark in the DONE column.

DONE!!!!!

There is that nagging little voice, though, the one that says, okay, you did it, now what? The little voice that reminds me I need other goals if I want to keep moving forward. The little voice that says, 2011, a whole year in front of you! What are you going to do with it?

Dang you, little voice!

So, here goes. I’ve decided to do some of it again. Get more short stories out into the world, write the first draft of another mystery AND rewrite and polish the first draft I finished in 2010.

And that’s enough for a start.

Good job! Where could I find your short stories?! :)

The short stories went out into the world, but weren't accepted except for one which won a local contest. I'm sending them out again.
