If We Were Having Coffee…

If we were having coffee I would tell you that I have been really enjoying the A to Z Challenge this week.  I’ve been happy with my posts, and am excited by the guest posts I have coming up!  Today’s the first one, my friends 12 year old son wrote a story for me about J, the Squirrel.

I also did my first guest post over on An Unconventional Librarian — where I got to write about Island of the Blue Dolphin.  It had been a long time since I’d read that book, and it was awesome to get the opportunity to re-read it.

I’ve been doing some thinking about my time management — I know that I have far too much on my plate and have to decide priorities.  Disparate Threads is going to be revamped… I just have to decide how it will look.  I know that I can’t keep posting a story update there every Monday, not if I have any intention of making progress on the novel (and I do, I am still holding myself to the goal of having a real functional (and approaching submit-able) draft by the end of this year).   It is hard to have to make those decisions and I’m trying to not jump into any too quickly, but giving a lot of thought to what I want to do with that blog-story.

What have you been up to this week?  Any projects going on that you want to talk about?   If you’re participating in the A to Z Challenge how are things going?  I’d highly encourage you to join the A to Z twitter chat on Thursdays if you can — I often am having to participate in the evening one via my phone during my evening commute, but it’s a lot of fun — a great group!

Today I deemed “Writing Day” so need to get moving on that, but thanks for joining me for coffee today!

Today’s post is a part of the Weekend Coffee Share, graciously hosted by Part Time Monster every weekend! A time for us to come together, share a cup of coffee (or our beverage of choice) to share some of what is going on in our lives.  It’s a lovely check-in time.
