November has been over for a little while now, but it’s time to round up how I got on through that month. Looking back . . . I think I did pretty well!
Actions Over The Past Fortnight
~Create and complete five Smexxy Snippet covers
Yes!
It took a bit of wiggling and fighting, but I managed. I found a base design I liked for the layout and then created each cover to match up with that. I want these stories to be brandable, so I want a consistent look across all the covers as they come out. I’m pleased to say: success! Not only that, but I created all ten of the covers I’ll need to get the series started. ^_^
November Round Up
~Create covers for and list the ten Smexxy Snippets I have planned. Have them up as pre-orders as far as Amazon and Smashwords will allow.
Done-ish. The covers are all created but I haven’t put the pre-orders up yet as I need to make sure the blurbs are done. Thankfully that shouldn’t be hard and I’ll be able to get that done this month. ^_^
~Ensure the release of ‘Slippers & Chains: Second Base’ goes as smoothly as possible on 21 November.
Sorted. Wasn’t really much left for me to work through, but it’s done. I think one more year of getting content out there and then I can reel back the schedule to something less mad and concentrate on directing people to what I have available. Woohoo!
Change That Shit Up!
Oooooooh, my god, look at that list! Look! It’s nearly empty! Yuuuuush!!! Completed tasks struck out, changes/clarifications in red and new tasks in green.
Publish ‘Slippers & Chains: Second Base’ on 21 November 2015- List titles of ten Smexxy Snippets and have them arrayed for pre-order by end of December 2015
Targets For December 2015
This should be easy, right? :p
- Ensure my first Smexxy Snippet releases as planned on December 22 2015
- List four more Smexxy Snippets for January, February, March and April
- Decide if I want them across both Amazon and Smashwords
- Make the appropriate formatting decisions based on that decision
- Send last newsletter of the year
Activities For This Fortnight
Send winter newsletter (if you’d like to get the last publishing news and upcoming covers sent straight to your inbox, join up here before December 14)- Write blurbs for next four Smexxy Snippets
- Make decision on whether or not I’ll be publishing my Smexxy Snippets to Smashwords too
Thoughts . . .
I’m so pleased. SO pleased! Everything has gone swimmingly, and so much has been achieved. Maybe I will have Christmas off after all. ^_^
