Still trying to juggle, and this week the writing fell by the wayside.
I critted 3 chapters for one friend, 2 for another.
Started a new short story, as well as a longer one that I'm not sure whether it'll be a novella or a novel. This is highly unusual for me, as I always plan and outline, so it'll be a learning experience. I'm managing a page a day on the long idea, so I got 794 words on it this week, and about 200 on the new short story. That's it for the week.
I got a good start on the next novel's outline (Sundered Sword), and did some more background reading and research, too.
Did pretty well on the submission front this past week, too, with five sent out, including the one review (which counts as a "new" submission in my database as it's never been out before).
Hoping to do better on the writing front this week; next week I know will be a wash, as I have a few overlapping freelance projects booked. Also, since that newest short story is for a market that closes this coming Saturday, I need to get it done if I'm going to make the deadline!

Good luck with the writing next week ... and with the submissions you sent this week - that's pretty heavy-duty! It's so frustrating not having the time to do everything ... and there are *still* no time-turners on ebay :)
