I think I am finally getting into some schedule, mode of working, where I am actually moving smoother than I was in recent weeks. I was beginning to stress myself out a bit trying to get everything I do on a daily basis done. I was finding it hard to find time to do it all. When it comes right down to it, you can't find time to do it all. It's impossible. All you can do is try to organize your time the best way you can to get what you need done when it needs to be done.I know I have things due, and I know when they are due.
This month I have 3 nonfiction articles submission calls I would like to submit too. All are short, and I should have no problem getting them done. I also have an anthology short due at the end of the month which I'm about halfway done with. I just need to transcribe what I wrote by hand the other night, since I didn't get it done last night. I also have two ideas for longer works. One already a WIP, and the other something would be fun to write and I want to write it. I mentioned the idea in my blog before. Something I'm calling Foursome follies. Four people living together. Two of which used to date. Then those two end up hooking up with the other two house mates and pair up. Now my original idea had it for two gay couples, but what if I tried switching it up with one gay couple and one straight couple? That idea came to me last night. I'm not sure if that would make it more marketable. It might be fun to write that way. A little bit of everything. I'm still pondering. Any thoughts on this anyone out there?
The firestorm over the RWA continues. I'm not really talking about it much because I'm more in the wait and see mode. I'm not a member of the RWA. I'm a potential future member. I'm actually looking at other writer's organizations at the moment as well. RWA isn't the only one out there. Any other organizations you know of that I might not have feel free to let me know. I see joining an organization as a way to meet others like myself, to form a sense of fellowship and camradirie with other writers, and in my honest opinion I'm developing that without the RWA. Since I've started my blog and joined a few message boards for writer's, I've met more writers and I've learned more by reading blogs and postings on message boards by others. I guess I'm still in wait and see mode.
One of the reasons I'm not blogging about it either. I don't want to get pulled into a rumor fest. I'd rather wait and see what happens and where the dust settles. Until then we don't really know what's rumor and what's fact.
YanıtlaSilI wrote one blog on the matter, but it was matter of expressing my confusion and an explanation of the things I'd heard. I just hope it all blows over soon.
