Writing Wednesday: Commitment

Posted on April 24, 2019 by authorwilliammangieri • Leave a comment

Stats progress from last week (if I can call it that): Did my three blog posts, and made my quota of comments on those of others. I still don’t have any open markets to send “Schizo the Magnificent” to, and now “Truth in Advertising” has returned, so I need somewhere to send it. “Date Night” … Continue reading →

Writing Wednesday: Feeling Unmoored

Posted on April 17, 2019 by authorwilliammangieri • Leave a comment

Stats from last week: Did my three blog posts, but I had a total fail commenting on others – I think I only managed ONE. I will need to remedy that this week. I still don’t have any open markets to send “Schizo the Magnificent” to. “Date Night” is in danger of NOT being ready … Continue reading →

Posted on April 3, 2019 by authorwilliammangieri • Leave a comment

Stats from last week: Posted three of my own blog posts as usual, and commented on enough of other people’s blogs to satisfy my quota. Still have a couple of stories hanging in limbo because I can’t find an open market (“Date Night” and “Schizo the Magnificent”.)  One of them will be my next ePub … Continue reading →

Posted on March 27, 2019 by authorwilliammangieri • Leave a comment

Last week’s stats: Three blog posts. Have a couple of stories I’d be rotating if I had someplace to send them (“Date Night” and “Schizo the Magnificent”.) I commented on enough blogs. My next release date is April 26th – about a month away, so I need to decide what it’ll be soon. I’m 73% … Continue reading →

Posted on September 5, 2018 by authorwilliammangieri • Leave a comment

Last week’s goals: 3 blog posts. Stories cycled to market as soon as markets were available (I’m getting low on submittable stories – there are only four making the rounds with publishers right now.

Goals report for last week: 3 blog posts. Stories cycled to market as soon as markets were available.

Goals from last week: 3 blog posts. Stories cycled to market as soon as markets were available. ePublications are still coming off on schedule – need to start planning for my August 17th release.
