Goals: Keeping pace (2025.09.01)
by Tobber Author IconMail Icon
Last week went pretty well, but it was also a quite hectic one. I expect this coming week to be slightly better but mostly more of the same. So, I'm also keeping my goals more or less the say, though I'm focusing more on reading and reviewing this week.


Core Goals

*Box* Write, edit, or outline every day: Same number one priority as always. I'm not quite ready to include the weekend in this goal (or the other goals), but if things keep going as they have lately, I'll drag my writing streak into Saturday and Sunday as well. *Smile*

*Box* Review for The Lodestar competition: Having turned my own submission in just in time, I should get around to reviewing the other entries. This should be very doable; there are only two other entries this month, and I already reviewed one of them.

*Box* Get exercise: As usual, I hope to get 2-3 exercise sessions done. Again, I probably should consider upping the goal a bit, but I only just hit the target last week.

*Box* Stop snacking: Same goals as the last couple of weeks. Hopefully, I can also cut back a bit on snacking during the weekend, but I'm not ready to officially include that in the goal just yet.

*Box* Do vocal exercises: Same as always. I should be doing the vocal exercises 1-2 times a day.


Stretch Goals

*Box* Read short stories: I should probably add a number this week, giving me something specific to aim for. Let's say 3; I should read at least 3 published short stories this week.

*Box* Stay up to date with Codex: I don't know if I really need this goal anymore. The app has made this very, very easy. So, yeah, probably the last time I'm including this goal.

*Box* Do a WYRM review: I need to complte the double review I started last week..

*Box* Submit short stories: Once again, I don't really have any short stories waiting to be send out, but in case I do get rejections, I want those stories out again as soon as possible.

*Box* Do Fantasticon work: Again, I don't really have anything lined up here either, but if something do pop where I can help out with planning our local con, I want to do so.
