My Six Month Plan

Romance Writing Plan:

By January 31, 2006 - Finish First Draft of SH#2 (about 90,000 words more to go… about 30,000 word/month for 3 months)

By January 31, 2006 - Finish Editing SH#1

By January 31, 2006 – Submit something to RWA Approved Publisher to start ball rolling for Pro-Pin

By April 2006 - Plot, Write synopsis, & Block Western Historical Series
(start with first and second book in series… also plot and decide on important characters and details for final story which may or may not be the third)

By April 2006 – Plot, Synopsis, & Block 9 Short Western Romance Stories (This is the 3 book Western Historical Series that will have 3 connecting short stories in each book… similar to the way Shana Abe wrote her Last Mermaid Novel)

In April 2006 – Decide which Western Series to start writing first draft.

Note: I may use Short Western Stories to work on while I’m writing my long Scottish Historical.

Children’s Book Writing Plan:

By April 2006 - Edit Picture Book and Write 2 More within its series… If I am happy with each of the stories… Submit

By April 2006 – Make decisions on Young Adult Scottish Historical Romance (if have time… plot and block)
