My to-do list

This morning I started my to-do list for the week. Along with doctors’ appointments and regular sheep and family care are a number of writerly activities that don’t involve writing, well, fiction writing anyhow.
Lunch with an editor
Write and submit a newsletter article on Sheep Shearing.
Read and critique four works for my face to face writing group
Read and critique two more works for my on line critique group.
Write my weekly blog. That would be what I am doing now
Compose a call for manuscripts for an anthology
Put together a basket for a silent auction to promote a book by one of my friends.
Write a guest blog for another friend. This will take some research, and may make its way onto next week’s list.
It’s amazing that writers ever get any writing done. I am part way into two short stories. In the shower this morning I came up with method and opportunity. Once I have the motive I can finish that story.
