My workload

Current Workload

Eberron Novel. 1st priority. 1000 words a day.

Put together 4 one-page synopses and 4 ten-page writing samples for a British/South African screenplay competition. Due date is April 25th. To date I have written out two of the synopses and have written five pages of sample writing. Sigh. I'm going to have to work harder on this one.

Write three episodes for a local tv drama/comedy. Already done first draft of one episode. Waiting on feedback on beatsheets for the other two.

Write scenes for a local soapie. (Sort of like a South African "Fame".) Caroline and I are auditioning to get onto the writing team for this one. If we do, it will be great as it's regular income, and from someone who doesn't like soapies this one is pretty good and tries hard to raise awareness about social issues.

Finish rewrites on screenplay for producer who wants to send it off to Germany.

Work on my own original novel. (Hah!)I'm 70 thousand words in on a proposed 120 thousand.

Work on a Doctor Who short story for upcoming hardcover anthology.

Work on an on-spec short story for upcoming anthology.

Work on chapter breakdown and sample first chapter requested by editor for a Celtic themed horror fantasy.

I've been wondering why I've been feeling frayed around the edges, and I think I've just found the answer. It's now 11.18 pm and I haven't done my 1000 Eberron words yet. Got to get to that before bed.

Ciao
