#ROW80 ~ October 14th Update
Round 4, Week 1.5 Update
Writing
Write First. Five days out of seven, sit down and write for at least an hour before noon. – A-okay for Mon. & Tues..
Sunday: I have the story pretty blocked out. I’m going to go back and add place-holders for scenes I haven’t written. The problem with some of these scenes is that they’re conveyance of information type scenes and I haven’t come up with good ways of writing them. I hope to add 1.6-2K by the end of today (Sunday). – Yeah, this didn’t happen on Sunday. On Monday, I added the scenes place-holders, updated the reference doc, and wrote 1200 words. I like Mondays. Tuesday, while finishing the scene I started on Monday, I realized I’d done something bone-headed in my plot and started fixing that and a couple other things. 600 words for the day.
By EoD Wednesday – Finish edits.
Thursday/Friday Monday/Tuesday: Finish up what scenes I can. Have Eric read on Friday/weekend if he’s available.
Finish updating reference document. – Done! Now to keep it up as I write.
Not necessarily this week: I was/have been confused about the marital status of one character. He was probably still on his first wife in 1915. Need to change that in One Ahead #1 and in current.
The Publishing End
Do the usual check-ins. – A-okay Monday & Tuesday
Finish spiritualism fiction shelf.
Set up week-in-advance promo stuff for Lucinda at the Window. – Scheduled today (Wednesday)
Exercise
Get some sort of cardio (30+ mins) three times a week. Unfortunately, there’s no league game this week. But maybe Eric and I will start running intervals again. – Nothing yet, but I’ll be going out to play ultimate frisbee in a couple hours.

A quick Wednesday update: I had big plans for Sunday. My haywire immune system had a totally different, non-compatible plan. It happens.
