What Happens to My Fridays?

Well, I’ve been reading like mad for a while (another technique brought to you by a lady from the Royal Court of Procrastination), so I’ve built up a backlist of books for the Friday Feature. Why I can’t seem to get them written, however, is a problem unto itself. The good news is, I’ve busted down a lot of the original list from my self-imposed TBR Challenge. The bad news is, of course, I fell off that bandwagon a while ago and built myself up a new list. I need to update the widget. :)

Speaking of updating, I’m considering revamping my website. (Okay, okay… So this may be yet another procrastination ploy. I haven’t decided yet.) I’m taking the advice of some fellow penners and will begin trying to blend my two voices: the dark, angsty, kind of satirical side with the visual hopscotch, almost glib side. Then again, I’ve only just begun to explore the possibilities, so this could end up stalling before I even get going, so I could be wasting my time. Not to mention time itself is a problem. The sneaky bastard, slipping away like that…

So, in what’s apparently becoming somewhat of a tradition here in the psychotic world of NiRei, I’ll list the various goals I’ve set for myself, of which I have the best intentions of completing, and of which reality will take a major crunch out of before grinding it between its steely jaws and spewing the masticated remains at my feet with a sneer for my unrelenting and apparently unrealistic optimism. (Not that I’m bitter or anything.)

  • Get the conversation/scenes from my newest story out of my head so I can finally go back to the WIP that I should be working on.
  • Go back to BEAR. Apologize profusely to the hero and heroine and hope they’ll take me back.
  • At least think about finishing the CAROLINA NORTH edits, pretending like I didn’t notice that I have yet more edits to go back in and add. We’ll wait until late to jump that stupid hurdle.
  • Think about revamping the website. Do I? Don’t I?
  • Do my duly-swore Librarianesque duties for my RWA Chapter and update the website with the newest set of resources.
  • Um… I think that may actually be it. Wow. That doesn’t seem like a whole lot now that I’m looking at it.

Hope you had a happy Monday. :)
