Fourth week of November 2025

Last week, I forgot to set any goals for this week. That meant that everything I got done this week was a huge success. ๐Ÿ˜น Most of what I did this week is the kind of stuff that doesn't make me feel like a writer, though. I did a lot of promo work, trying to make the best of the holiday week for those of us in the U.S.

Smashwords (the vendor I use to get my books out to the places I don't have accounts with) has an upcoming deadline for anything that needs to be done / ready in time for the Christmas season. That means if I want to get book 2 published in time for the holidays, I need to prioritize finishing book two and getting the audio recorded.

Since I'm not 100% sure what I'm doing for book 3 yet, book 2 might not have the โ€œnext time onโ€ section like Death In Transit has. I'm not so committed to the bit that I would delay the release of book 2 for that.

Next week's goals

  1. Design a cover for Book 2
  2. Finish missing scenes
  3. Major edits
  4. First pass audio recording

If I get any proper writing in, great. As long as I get those bits in too!
