What Did You Do This Week, Gail? April 22 Edition

Goal 1. Adhere to Goals and Objectives. In spite of a family member visiting, which led to a sister road trip today and some stuff tomorrow, I did get some work done. That's what's known as approximating correct behavior.

Goal 3. Generate New Short Work/Programs. I believe I've found a new market for one of my essays. Haven't done anything with it yet.

Goal 4. Marketing Saving the Planet & Stuff eBook. This was the priority this week with three STP&-related blog posts. Once the post announcing that the eBook is free went up yesterday, I needed to do content marketing (see below) around that sister road trip I mentioned above. There will be more tweeting to do the next two days, as well as a few e-mails to go out.

Goal 5. Community Building/General Marketing/Branding. 

• Young Readers And eBooks post: Promoted to Google+, a Google+ community, and Twitter
• Time Management Tuesday post: Promoted to Facebook, Google+, Twitter
• STP&S Norwegian Publication post: Promoted to Facebook, Facebook communities, Google+, and Twitter.
• Saving the Planet & Stuff Free post: Promoted to Facebook, Facebook community, Google+, family, friends, Twitter, Goodreads. More groups and tweets for the next two days.
• Goodreads blog post: Republished yesterday's STP&S free post. 
• Submitted a middle grade novel to an agent.

Goal 6. Generate New Work. Spent some time on both the picture book manuscript and going over the revision of the adult version of Becoming Greg and Emma. I lined up a beta reader for that, too, even though I haven't had good luck with them in the past.
