The swimmers at my high school didn't do the goal thing, at least not in such a clear and public way. Maybe that's why none of them ever went to State. I have goals for the weekend, unfortunately not Sven goals (at least not Sven-on-my-new-book goals). I got revision notes back on IMMORTAL WARRIOR and my editor wants the revised ms back on Monday. Busy. But once this is done, my plate is utterly clear for Sven and Steinarr (my hero in the new book). Do love those Scandanavian types. Great post, Diana.

I almost feel like dropping out because I know it's not going to happen. Again. But then there's this little voice inside me that says "don't give up and don't stop writing." Knowing other people have the same kinds of obstacles that I battle with everyday makes sticking in there much easier. It's also inspiring. If I can look at someone else and see the weight of their obligations being balanced with their desire to write, I figure I can somehow manage to make the time to put my fingers on the keyboard, too.

I need a reminder that we all have our goals and the only way to meet them is to write. I had to undergo some medical testing this week and it put me out of commission. I haven't written anything the last three days and feel guilty. I know, of course, that I'll get back on track. I have tonight and tomorrow to get some work done. Sunday will be out of the question.
