Happy New Year

Hmmmmm. I just finished reading the character excerpt I submitted to the Symposium Special Topic...hmmmmm.

In short, still needs more work. The question arises: How to write a journal entry to reflect the character's voice and still show the character's intellect, emotion, belief, etc., without making same character sound or appear diminished.

12:00am Happy New Year.

All Non writing & Non gaming Activities for the year. The following projects are in direct relationship to the first resolution I've attempted to make in over Ten years...ie., Resolution for 2015--Keep an organized and moderately clean house throughout the year. For anyone who KNOW me this is a huge goal!

Projects: 11:30am (1:30pm wdct) as of a half hour ago #1 project: dishes

In progress

#2 project: organize kitchen

#3 project: maintain all household projects (on going)

#4 project: organize living room

Repeat #3 (ha ha ha)

[You do notice that these are labeled Projects and NOT Steps. A very important distinction. Projects can be performed out of order, while steps tend more to follow each other.]

#5 project: organize bathroom

#6 project: organize library

#7 project: organize bedroom

#8 project: organize storage unit and evaluate the need for continued usage...money saver potential...

Repeat #3 (ha ha ha again)


More projects to be added as they come up...although I have added every room of the house and one out of home space. This summer the front and back porch will no doubt be added.

This list of projects is an important step in trying to reduce distractions throughout the year for my writing activities. I will find out if these projects actually reduce the distractions or magnify them.

Resolution #2: Write purposefully this year...I have lost much of my writing discipline from lack of routine. I will endeavor to recapture a routine in my daily life which includes writing with a purpose.

But first, I must attend to a project in progress.
