#5MinuteFiction is one of the things that I enjoy doing every Tuesday night, except I haven’t been able to participate the last three weeks due to various conflicts. Tonight the prompt was “Show the magical side of an everyday, boring object.” We had some interesting stories and circumstances. In fact, we showed the magical side of time! One of the fun parts of #5MinuteFiction is the voting. So, if you’d like to take part in that part of the contest, please feel free to go on over to Write on Wendy and read the stories and vote. My everyday object was a fan. I should also point out that the lady who inspired me to start out on ROW80 has a story in the voting as well.
Now, to the #ROW80 goals.
Goal #1 – Editing. I plan to do about 2 hours per week editing previous work.
Not much editing yet. Tuesday night is more of a new work night, especially with #5MinuteFiction.
Goal #2 – Writing. I have a couple of short story ideas that I’d like to play with. So, I’ll do about 2 hours per week of short story writing.
I did an hour of writing, maybe a bit more. I also finished #5MinuteFiction this week.
Goal #3 – Begin cleaning up the mess that passes for my room at school.
State Testing is this week. I had to get some cleaning done so that I could test legally.
Goal #4 – Work on my reading. I need to spend about 4 hours this week on craft productive or other essential reading.
Been working on this. 1 hour on prep for the State Test; 1 hour on the reading I’m doing for another group.
Goal #5 – no more than 1 hour per day on Facebook.
While I was trying to get ready to work on this, I needed to talk to someone on Facebook. The talk went on for more than an hour in addition to the little bit of time that I had already spent on Facebook Tuesday.
So, I’m happy with the progress so far. I just can’t afford to start slipping! Besides, I have some major conflicts coming up in the evenings and I can’t afford to waste any time. So, while I’ve made progress this week, I still have to buckle down.
