Hello and a very happy Saturday to you all!
I apologize for this post coming so late. Wix wouldn't let me post until I got on my computer.
April was a great month full of creativity and productivity. I nearly managed to accomplish all my goals as well which is quite exciting given the year I’ve been having. I’m grateful to my muse for making April a much better month than March, it felt great to get back into the flow of things.
But April is now behind us and it is time to move forward. Before we can do that though we need to go over April’s goals.
Write chapters 15-17 of The Queen’s Guard 💚
I’m so happy to be able to say that i have finally completed this goal. Chapter fifteen was one of the hardest things I’ve had to overcome (as far as writing) in a while and there was no particular reason as to why. I also managed to get chapter seventeen competed as well but I’ll talk more about that below. The important thing is that I have finally completed this leg of the book and now there are only seven chapters left! I’m so excited to get this book finished and if I’m able to stay on track then The Queen’s Guard should be finished come the end of June.
Write chapter 4-6 of Written in the Stars 💚
Another goal that I’m thrilled to have completed. This story has just begun its journey but I’m really happy with the way it’s turning out. I can’t wait to see where the story takes me from here!
Outline the second act of Lullaby 💚
Words cannot describe how happy I am to be moving along with this goal. It’s definitely surreal to be at this point but I’m loving every minute of it.
Outline the second act of The King’s Court 💚
I can’t wait until I’m able to begin working on this story. I’m loving every bit of the outlining process and it’s really getting me pumped up to write it.
Start Organizing Storage Room 💚
This was an utter and complete nightmare but damnit we started to make some real progress! I’m happy with the way things have been going although we may have to rework out plan concerning the room and our time frame. Who knows. Half the fun in getting something done is the journey to get there.
Paint Mural ♥️
The only reason this goal was a failure is because I decided to put it off until a week before my sisters are due to visit. With my visual incapabilities I want to give myself as much time as possible to practice the mural before actually putting brush to wall. So wherein I have technically been working on the mural in a way, it’s not in the way this goal was geared towards.
Prep fics 💚
Of course I’m happy with the way this goal has turned out. I’ve altered my plans some and I don’t know when I’ll be picking up my original plan again but I definitely have something brewing in the works that I can’t wait to share.
Work on Secret Goal 💚
And of course I’ve been putting a lot of effort into this goal. I’m strongly contemplating adding in a certain something but it’s an idea that requires a lot of thinking over. Either way I can’t wait for the grand reveal!
April’s goals turned out REALLY well and I know I have Camp NaNoWriMo to thank for a lot of that. Oh and by the way, I won my very first Camp this go round so I’m feeling pretty darn good. I know May is going to be one hell of a month but I’m excited for more than one reason. Now let’s get this month started with some wondrous goals to end the Spring Quarter!
Spring Quarter (March - May)
May Goals
Write chapters 19-22 of The Queen’s Guard
It might seem strange to work on four chapters for a second month in a row but I promise there is a method to my madness. Two of my little sisters are coming to visit at the end of the month and they are staying until the middle of June. In order to keep to my schedule I need to have some chapters completed ahead of time so that their visit is an entirely stress free one.
Write chapters 7-10 of Written in the Stars
The same rules apply to WITS this month. In order to stick to my schedule I need to get four chapters completed this month. I’m really excited to get working on this section of chapters as well. If all goes as planned then I will be finished the first act by the end o the month.
Outline third act of Lullaby
It’s insane to think that this story is almost entirely planned out. I can’t wait to have it all sorted although that then leaves me with the tiny problem of figuring out what the third book is going to be about.
Outline third act of The King’s Court
I’m so excited to have this story planned out at last. Unlike with Reaper, I know exactly what I want from the third book in this series and it’s so much fun planning out the build up to that book while intensifying the relationships already established. I MIGHT have a special place in my heart for my leading pair in this book.
Paint mural
This month I’ll actually be putting brush to wall. I’m thinking of taking at least another week or two for practicing then applying it to the wall. Not only can I not wait to finally have this mural finished but I also can’t wait to share it with all of you!
Prep House
This is just one giant goal because of how much is going into it. Including but not limited to...
Finishing up organizing the storage room
Cleaning off and arranging some furniture we’ve recently been given
Setting up the den
And of course the general cleaning one does when company is expected
...I think this is a fun time to mention how much I loathe cleaning. It’s going to be one hell of a month but weekly goals shall keep me going until I’m able to get everything finished up. I keep telling myself that it’ll be worth it in the end and that couldn’t be more true.
Prep fics
I’m really excited to put my into this new idea of mine. What’s even better is that I can get some input from my sisters once they’re here.
Work on Secret Goal
This is the last month I’ll have to get everything planned out for this goal. We have finally hit the final stretch before I can share everything with all of you!
I know I’m putting a lot on myself this month but I have everything planned out week by week so it shouldn’t be too overwhelming. At least that’s what I’m hoping. Either way it will be more than worth it in the end.
Well I have more than enough work to get done so I should be going. Next month we return to our regularly scheduled blog posts as well. Wish me luck!
Until next month!
✿ Happy reading and writing to all and to all a good day ✿
