(not necessarily in order)


1. I will submit a minimum of Six (6) pieces to new publishers!

2. I will update my website (Jewel's Writing) OR write a a blog post OR create an Examiner.com article OR add to my WordPress site (Sims 2 & 3) every week!

3. I will finish at least a rough draft of my novel by the end of the year!  ]]>Thu, 05 Apr 2012 09:17:55 -0600http://www.jewelswriting.com/1/post/2012/04/so-i-have-grand-ideas.htmlI have great intentions and I want to make changes, but I'm not good at follow-through. For instance, it's been about three weeks since I promised big changes in the next month.

However, I have determined that I should post my writing goals for the rest of 2012 where everyone can see. They will be listed as the next post and include finishing my novel (in rough draft form at least)!!

Will somebody out there please read these objectives and at least email me if you don't see anything about completing them? I'd rather have somebody come and prod me with a stick or hold a gold star (instead of a carrot) out in front of me, but I doubt many of you live close enough!

So far, I changed the name of this page and "Writing Resources" is now "Writers' Resources." I also added a few links to the Writers' Resources.

My future plans include a blog, more links, short samples of my writing and listings of published pieces. Please forgive me for deleting the old entries in this journal, but I hope you find the finished result to be a big improvement.

Not only is the six week course free, but there are no advertisements, no Java and no banners. Mr. Pekin wanted it to load quickly and not have any distractions.

My website,  jewelswriting.com  was offline for over four months. Now, I've paid for two years of the domain name and hosting. I intend to add more to this site as time goes by. ]]>
