July Goals

July is a month of ups and downs for me.  I enjoy summer and July is when the last vestiges of spring finally fade away.  My birthday is also this month and I love presents just as much as anyone.  There is a big downside though: my job from hell starts on the 24th.  It's six days a week, full time, for six straight weeks.  It's tiring and it's infuriating, but they pay me, which is why I go back every year.  What the start of the job from hell means is as of the 24th my writing time utterly vanishes.  I'll be able to squeak in a few minutes here or there, but any progress won't be significant.  I need to get as much as possible done this month before the job starts and my goals list reflects that.  Here's what I'm planning: 

1. Writing.  Work on Dragon Soldier, my superhero story, Case of the Wandering Wolves, and The Oracle's Current as much as possible.  The more I'm able to get done, the better.  Ideally, I would like to finish writing at least one of these stories so I can cross it off my to-do list entirely. 
    
   
2. Editing. Work on The Oracle's Sprite.  I want to have it back to LT3 within the first two weeks of July.  I also want to make some progress in Ground of Insurrection.  The edits my wonderful beta reader left me have been languishing for far too long and part two of the story is still begging to be written.
