A World Amongst - I finished my revision of section 3. Now I'll work my way back to section 2.
That's really all I've done, but I've done a lot of it. And probably all I'll get done for the next couple of weeks with the holidays. But I'm driven to get this finished and to a beta reader or two. Finishing it and my mystery are my top two priorities.

Christmas has taken top billing with me. I need to get content put in Patreon and Medium. I drew out two new paintings and that turned out to be a fiasco. I had nothing but trouble yesterday. Today I go to the eye doctor. And then the Christmas candy making commences.

A World Amongst - I made it through section 2. I haven't worried about the writing, but have focused on the storyline. I want to make sure I have it right before I spend a lot of time getting the writing clean. Now on to section 1, then to a beta reader or two.
I hope to finish my goals in the next couple of days. I basically know in my head what I want to prioritize but would like to get it written, for reminders and motivation.

I've put in hours of drawing time. Thoroughly enjoyed the work and see a lot of improvement. I got content put on Patreon and Medium but don't see much action there. Joshua has been sick for two weeks. I'm going to call and make him an appointment Wed. with the gastro doctor. I think it might be time to change out the tube. He's had it in twice as long as most people do.
I'm going to get a chapter added to Luciana's story. Get a new coloring page put up and a new piece of artwork. Trying to do something every week to Patreon to keep it active.
Medium is a tougher problem. I wanted to post a variety of topics. Humor, inspirational, motivational, memoir, recipes etc. But the only activity I get is when I post Joshua's story. and the claps have pretty much stopped. I don't know if they are passing me by and not reading, or if my work is simply not clap worthy.
Art league is Wednesday and I don't know what I'm going to put up over there. One more day to produce something new. Otherwise, I'll have to pull something off the wall that has already been seen.
At least, i'm working. And enjoying it. I will be buying paint this week and starting the big job of getting this house ready to sell by spring. I hope to goodness I can find a place to move to.

I put in about 5 hours a day on drawing cartoons. I'm starting to get comfortable with the style of them. I had a lot of story ideas come to me but nothing I can work on right now. JOtted down a few ideas I didn't want to lose and moved on. Joshua seems to have thrown off whatever was bothering him so I'm hoping this week will be more productive. Hank is staying home in the afternoons. I find this very odd and sort of disruptive. I don't like to work when he's home. Most likely a carry over from the way we were brought up. Dad's time at home was so rare that we were taught to not interfere with his relaxation. I tend to walk softer and not run anything with a motor in it.
I feel like I got a lot done this week. Just nothing to show for it except increased skill level on my artwork which, hopefully, will pay off in the future.

Good job! You're really making progress on your cartoon strip. I need to get onto Patreon and see what you have there. I don't think I've been there for months. Yikes!
I finished my first revision of A World Amongst. It's a complete story now, though I know it has issues. I had a friend on Facebook offer to beta read so I decided I'll send it her way and get an object pov before revising again.
I'm going to pull out my mystery this week and analyze where it's at and what I think I want to do with it before sending it out to agents.
