Since I've started a new website, I decided why not start a new blog series too! So, to share my progress with you guys and keep myself accountable, I will be tracking all of my writing & reading stats!

Monday

To be honest, I haven't gotten much reading or writing done lately. I've been distracted with life and a four month old puppy. Luckily, I was able to get a little bit of reading and writing in today!

While I didn't get any reading or writing in, I did do something productive. Can you guess what it is?! I built a new website! Well, I'm not quite finished, but I'm hoping to put the finishing touches on it tomorrow!

Wednesday

Guess who finished her site today?! I did! After I did that, I wrote two quick blog posts and then published the site for the world to see! And after seeing those two zeros yesterday, I felt a little guilty, so I forced myself to read. Hopefully I'm able to get some writing in tomorrow!

Thursday

I've got to be honest, I did not do much of anything today. I spent a good portion dealing with a migraine and trying to drown it out with a binge session of Jane the Virgin. However, I did use the time my husband was picking up dinner to get some light reading in! Then after he went to bed, I got a lot more done.

Friday

Today has been incredibly busy. I wrote two Perfectly Ambitious blog posts, spoke with multiple clients and potential clients, and I updated 126 published blog posts. After doing all of that, I decided it was time to take a break. I turned on Jane the Virgin and ate mint chocolate chip ice cream right out of the container and even though I wanted to watch the next episode, I decided it was finally time to get some real stuff done in regards to my writing career. So, I finished my book, wrote the review, and started working on my second novel again!

Saturday

My plan for today was to get up, get ready, finish the little bit of work that I had left, and then head somewhere to write. However, that's not what happened. I ended up having way more work to do than before, and while I'm glad that I'm finally making some money, I hate that I'm not moving forward with my debut novel. So tonight, I'm focusing on getting everything I can done so that I can dedicate tomorrow to writing.

Sunday

Well, it seems that as soon as I make a plan the universe decides it needs to be changed. I went to bed last night with the intention of waking up and heading to Panera for a writing session, but when I woke up I felt like I'd been hit by a truck. So then I told myself I'd eat and see how I felt afterwards;  but that was a joke, because I couldn't even make the walk to the living room. I think I had to stop about four times before finally I just flung myself on to the couch. Needless to say, that's where I've been all day.

Weekly Wrap-up 

Even though this week didn't go as planned, I'm really happy with what I've accomplished. As someone with multiple chronic illnesses, I've learned that I have to celebrate every little accomplishment no matter how small it is. So I'm pretty happy with the fact that I finished a book and a novella and managed to write over a thousand words. Here's to hoping that next week goes better!
