#ROW80 ~ July 12th Check-In

Update

Writing

Between rewriting and having an unmotivated week, I didn’t get much forward progress. Did finish some research. My goal for this week is going to be the same as last week’s:

Add 5K minimum reach 18K on the Abbott Project. (Edit: This goal is changing to effectively be 20K on the manuscript before we go to Colorado/Nebraska.)

Publishing

Ran Model Species promo yesterday. Downloads for all our promos have been pretty lack-luster lately. Martian Engineer’s got a few sales and page reads, so that’s cool. Probably won’t be planning any promos until we’re back from our trip.

Complicating Factors in July

A.k.a., what else do I have going on:

#24in48 Readathon is happening right now. I should be working, but instead I’m reading…
I dumped the second half of the Intro to Interactive class. July was looking just too busy. I’ll catch it in September.
EverQuest2’s new progression server opened in Beta this week. It ate time.
Our trip to Colorado later in the month will probably be extended to include our yearly Omaha trip. This is good. I don’t do well with interruptions of schedule and yet another trip in Sept/Oct was going to be that. It’s not a completely solid plan yet, but it’s likely.
