Weekly Wishes

July 23, 2013August 25, 2015 Crystal // Dreams, etc. 5 comments
Weekly Wishes

Last week I found a blog called The Nectar Collective and as I was reading through discovered that she hosts a link-up every Monday called Weekly Wishes. The idea behind it is to share a goal or challenge to accomplish for the week and, as a queen of to-do lists, I thought it was the perfect link-up for me to participate in.

Being the queen of to-do lists, I wasn’t able to narrow my Weekly Wishes down to one goal or challenge, but I still think that all of mine are attainable:

1)  Complete a few sketches for Minnesota Mermaids. Heather and I had a meeting today to discuss what we’re working on and I have so many ideas that I need to start sketching some of these done. I’d like to complete three sketches this week.

2)  Write 10,000 words (at least) of my current WIP. That’s five days of 2,000 words.

3)  Read a book.  I’m thinking it will be either You Are One of Them, by Elliot Holt or Trains and Lovers, by Alexander McCall Smith.

4)  Watch the first lesson from my fashion drawing class. I signed up for this class a few weeks ago and finally read through the Welcome PDF yesterday. I’m excited to get started!

What are some of your goals for the week? If you’re interested, go link up over at The Nectar Collective!

    It's so difficult to pick from the two books! Toss a coin, maybe? Heh. Good luck!

      Yeah! Tossing a coin is a good idea! Since they're both from the library, I think I might go with the book by Elliot Holt because it took longer for me to get it. But it's definitely hard to choose! Thanks for stopping by!
