Reading Material

Well the last few days have been spent alternately between working on items for the writer's group I belong to and Domestic Goddess duties. I have managed to write something each day, even something small.

With a new week beginning, I have swept up the over abundance of cat hair in my office and am working on digging through the piles of stuff to get reorganized once again. I have also gone through and pulled a book off each book shelf and out of each bin shoved under the beds to create my latest stack of reading. Much to my husbands glee, I have been putting the occasional book in the 'I can part with this book' box. They will be donated to the next book sale for Monica's Heart Greyhound Adoption. Perhaps by the time they have the next one I will have a decent donation, since I always come away from the sale with a box of my own to take home to read.

Distractions, distractions

I was not as productive as I would have liked yesterday. We had a couple errands to run and then the evening was spent doing a little yard work. I did manage to type the equivalent of a page of words, which is one more page than I had previously. I'll take what I can get and do more the next time.

Writing Marathon

I don't know why, but I woke up yesterday with a renewed desire to be productive. It may have just been the last of my hormones calming down for another month, or maybe the effects of my new walking schedule. Either way I am rolling with it and going to keep doin' what I'm doin'. I have walked now 4 days in a row and thanks to the greys I'm not likely to miss a day.
My productivity with writing has been small, but consistent. There is more to writing than the actual act itself and I am working towards a friendlier writing environment with the hopes of more productivity. Yesterday I finished a long over due critique, started cleaning out the inbox (again) and did some mailing for the Word by Word Writer's Society.
I have also stepped it up a bit on my blogs, I have dedicated my Yahoo 360 to Greyhounds and Gardening and this one to my writing. And then there is my alter-ego over on http://www.onelonelyviewer.blogspot.com that handles my television viewing and opinions. I am hoping to do a better job all around as far as my work goes and so far, so good.
I am toying with the idea of jumping into the November NaNoWritMo next month. We'll see how that goes.
