Weekly Goals

I am in the middle of compiling elements that will create the cover of my new book, that is the sequel to my first and only published book. I've hired four different artists during the past two years that either took my money and didn't do the work or delivered such awful results that I demanded a refund (and got it!). Last night, an artist delivered a beautiful feature element for my book cover, one that I will love to use as I finalize the rest of my ideas. I am planning on using him for books three and four because I'm so pleased with his talent and communication.

My goal for this week is to find the remaining elements I need in royalty-free clip art and then start the blocking process to create a book cover that is not only eye-catching but will complement book one of the series. The book is not finished, it still needs some final revision, but I need a short break from editing anyway.

I am also working on a poem for the story-poem contest here on WDC...I hoped to have it ready last month, but I'm having trouble with meter and wanted to study examples on YouTube to improve myself before I enter the contest I want to finish the poem this week so I will not interfere with my convention appearance at the end of the month.

PS: I've been away from the goal posting thread for a long time due to a few medical issues I've been dealing with for the past year. I'm making an effort to return to my old life and work habits as the year winds down so I will off and running at the start of 2019. It feels good to be back. :)
