The end of the round is almost here! I can feel my motivation flagging…it’s been a busy weekend and zero writing time, and now that I’m trying to write, the scene is not working. The story is at a critical, difficult turning point, and I think I’m just getting stuck on the action that needs to push the narrative forward. I’m opting to go to bed and wake up refreshed tomorrow, but this week I am kicking it into high gear to catch up! I can see the end in sight.

I’m glad this project is nearing completion, because real life is going to have to take a bit of a front seat for a while. I need to start sorting and packing for our move–it’s going to be a beast, so I want to start now. I have a feeling my closet is going to get filled with boxes very soon (to keep them away from the kitties, who enjoy their cardboard scratchers and think boxes are for claw sharpening)! I also need to start gathering the necessary painting supplies…all the wallpaper at our house is gone (they removed it rather than texturing over) and the walls are retextured, so things will be ready to paint as soon as the estate sale is over. I want to be prepared to get in there and get it done as soon as possible, because I am ready to move!

For this week:

• I’d love to get 3K a day on Drawn Together. I’m still behind from being sick, and I want to get ahead early in the week so I can sail through the finish line.
• Take one day of breathing room and start edits on Drawn. My submission deadline is April 15!

Head on over to the link list to cheer on your ROW80 compatriots! Let’s cross this finish line together!
