Just a little post to get me thinking about the last 80 days. I have spend a goodly number of days on variousprojects and stuff. I am aware that I need to have a running totally of my goals at each check-in so I can refer back to it. I think it would help me focus on some of the goals that get passed over each week. Also, I noticed that by having smaller goals, ones that I can add to helps keep me productive and more or less on track.
This is the first Round that I felt like I was part of something greater than myself. I learned some better habits and connected with my fellows on a deeper level.
I am thought about being a Sponsor for ROW80, but I am not sure if I am up to the level of sponsorhood. I mean, I know how ROW80 work, but I also feel not adequate enough to give writing advise. I don't know. What you you think, Dear Readers? Should I consider it? Do I have enough words to inspire my fellow writer? I am not as seasoned as some, but I have discovered a few things? Share me some incite and should I do it?
Quick Summary of my Goals this Round:
*Reading: I have read a lot this Round. I currently have three books that travel with me and in various states of being read. A quick guesstimate I have read about 12 to 15 books since before this Round.
*Writing: writing about 3 new pieces and 2 to a complete revision. Although I could wrote more, might end up writing more. I kind of like some of these characters.
*Editing: completed at least two complete revisions of pieces.
*Submissions: have submitted to maybe about 5 or 6 in this round and got twosmall poems picked for next years Friends of the Chemung Watershed calendar.
Those are the biggies. I have gotten more attentive with my house, focused on the decidedly sucky job of being an adult, paying bills, etc. Have made plans and managed to find myself a write, with all the joys and frustrations that come with it.
I have a number of things planned that are non-ROW80. HAve even considered started a second blog for my ROW80, but I kind of feel that I wouldn't be able to keepm up with two blogs. I like my Here, There be a Writer blog. It's me to a T, a little cluttered and full of a bit of everything. Maybe down the road I will expand, but for now I will enjoy what I have, Dear Readers. I hope you stick around and see what havong coming up the rest of this year, definitely more blog posts about books, adventures, and life, and also writing.
Peace~

You have great enthusiasm and I was (am) really discouraged about not meeting my personal goals this round but now I just feel kind of excited about the next round. Great music choices :)
ReplyDeleteI like to throw a little music into the blogs, makes it interesting.
DeleteThere is always a new day and another Round coming to make something awesome!! :-)
I think you should definitely consider becoming a sponsor! It's fun to write a blog post to the entire group. If it's not too late I might volunteer for a second time, for round three.
ReplyDeleteGonna do it!!
DeleteI think you would be a great ROW80 sponsor. Writing the inspirational post is the hardest, but I know you could come up with something to inspire or encourage fellow writers. Even just talking about an issue you struggled with and how you overcame it is a great starting place for that sort of post. And if you're already in the habit of commenting on fellow participants' check-in posts, that part will come easily. So I say go for it!
ReplyDeleteSee you next round!
Thanks Denise! Going to do it!!
DeleteSee yah in 3 (Round that is)!!
