While I'm finishing the edits for Romancing the Geek, I'll post the next 5 Goal Keeping Tips from Roxanne St. Claire
6. Call your goal buddy once a week and do a report
7. Write slow and steady instead of fast and furious (2 pages a day is 10 pages a week or easily a book in a year, with editing and time for submission)
8. Get a goal calendar--dry erase four months, write your page goals and check them every week.
9. Don' let the sun go down on a rejection -- the day one comes in, get another submission out.
10. Pick your conferences and contests early in the year and ENTER them as soon as possible -- don't wait until the last minute.
Welcome to Terry's Place. I'm an author of mystery and romance, happy to share what I'm learning, both about writing and anything I find interesting.

Seems like a lot of work for a hobby, Mom! **grin**
That's because it's moved beyond hobby -- I have to fill out a Schedule C, which means it's my job!
