Year of Accountability – 1/13-1/20

The Year of Accountability rolls on. Now to take the next step! IronTributeIllo2_08_15_15

After the success of our last accountability post I’m really liking how the community helps make sure I’m doing what I’m supposed to be doing!

Onto this week’s goals:

Goal: 24,000 Words in The Last Gladiator. This will put me roughly 2 weeks from an ETA on completing the novella.

Goal: Order cover art for The Last Gladiator.

Goal: Register for an event – The Gaithersburg Book Festival!

To be fair, this last one is sort of cheating, as I’ve already sent in the paperwork, but I’m still waiting to hear if I’ve secured a spot.

Ciao! Let’s get typing!

An update, yes please! – NaNoWriMo2019

Hi all,

Unfortunately I’ve been falling behind on my goals – November is a massive crunch time for me this year, with school things, Warhammer Club and Tournament things, plus now D&D things keeping me busy. I’m still going to finish this novella, but I’m falling behind in my goals. Never-the-less, here’s some updated writing!
