What Did You Do This Week, Gail? Jan. 19th Edition.

This week I worked on:

Goal 2. Begin YA Thriller. I continued to work on character development and creating voices for my three main characters as well as some character work on an important character from the past.

Goal 3. The first draft of Good Women. Brought myself back up to speed by rereading the first six chapters and worked on blueprinting the next chapter per Wendy Mass's book development plan.

Goal 4. Community Building/General Marketing/Branding.  Got started making...and using...a social media marketing calendar again.

• Halo Effect blog post--Promoted to Facebook, Google+, Google+ community, Twitter

• TMT blog post--Promoted to Twitter, Google+, and Twitter. Note I didn't promote it to Facebook this week. I'd just promoted the Halo Effect post there. You don't want to give people too much of a good thing.

• Women and Nature Writing post--Promoted to Google+ and Twitter.  

• Hornbook Reading List post--Promoted to Google+, Google+ community, Facebook community, Goodreads blog, Twitter 

I also started working on next month's Connecticut Children's Literature Calendar.
