PROGRESS REPORT: WEEK ENDING DECEMBER 28, 2024

 Can you believe that this is the last PROGRESS REPORT of 2024? Where has the time gone? Just wish I had some actual progress to report. 😞

I managed to proofread about three more pages of the SOLITAIRE 2: THE AGENDA manuscript and that's it! ChristmasπŸŽ„may be getting too commercial in my personal opinion, but it's also a hectic time of year as well, and I don't even work in the retail industry.

Hopefully things will slow down to a more normal routine soon.

The only New Year's Eve plans I have are dependent upon whatever is on television Tuesday night. Hopefully I can get a lot more accomplished this coming week because I haven't even touched the ZEPHYR LILY material since around the beginning of the month!

So with that in mind, take care.
STAY SAFE!
If you drink, please do so responsibly and don't forget: just before the stroke of midnight to raise your left leg so you can start 2025 off on the right foot.πŸ˜‰

PROGRESS REPORT: WEEK ENDING DECEMBER 21, 2024

 So, how much "progress" did I manage last week?

TWO WHOLE PAGES PROOFREAD ON SOLITAIRE 2: THE AGENDA!😲

That's it. Period. Maybe my theory is correct about the end of the year not being a good time to attempt accomplishing anything creatively.

But, depending upon how you celebrate, the "Big Event" is coming up so...





Take care.
STAY SAFE!
And I'll see you around the Internet.

PROGRESS REPORT: WEEK ENDING DECEMBER 14, 2024

 I'm afraid history repeated itself this past week because other than managing to proofread another chapter of SOLITAIRE 2: THE AGENDA, I didn't get anything done writing wise. Chapter wise, I haven't even gotten into double digits, let alone anywhere near the halfway point of the manuscript yet.

Maybe the last month of the year just isn't a good time to attempt accomplishing anything other what what you absolutely need to, especially with the holidays on the horizon. After all, depending upon what you celebrate, this is the last full week before Christmas, Hanukkah AND Kwanzaa!

In any event, I'll keep plugging away at least before and after everything else I have to do between now and the holidays.
Who knows?
Maybe next week I'll actually have some progress to report.

Until then, take care.
STAY SAFE!
Have a great week and I'll see you around the Internet.

PROGRESS REPORT: WEEK ENDING DECEMBER 7, 2024

 If I ever find that "Murphy" guy, I'm gonna force him to repeal that infamous law of his—anything that can
go wrong will—immediately!

I'm probably far from the first person who ever said that, but it certainly happened a lot to me this past week.

I only got another chapter or two from SOLITAIRE 2: THE AGENDA proofread at the most with absolutely nothing else accomplished at all on the writing front, let alone anything on ZEPHYR LILY.

I accomplished plenty if you count cooking, cleaning, housekeeping, laundry, errands, et al and ectaras.

But writing?🀣

I hope this coming week will be better, but we'll see how it goes.

In any event, take care.
STAY SAFE!
And I'll see you around the Internet.

PROGRESS REPORT: WEEK ENDING NOVEMBER 30, 2024

 Other than managing to finish getting all my handwritten material on ZEPHYR LILY transcribed into the computer, I unfortunately didn't get anything accomplished writing wise this past week. 😞

On the other hand, I had a great holiday weekend with my extended family! 😁😎

I've been trying to catch up on housework and other responsibilities today and my weekly grocery hunting trip is tomorrow, weather permitting.
So hopefully I can at least start my final proofread of SOLITAIRE 2: THE AGENDA after that because I'd like to get that done and the manuscript off to Airship 27 before the end of 2024.

In any event, take care.
STAY SAFE!
And I'll see you around the Internet.
