\"list\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I’m making some progress on the goals that I’ve set for this year.<\/p>\n

I’ve mostly done the goals that I set out to do for September. I’m a little behind on the book proposal thing, but I’ve set some new goals for October that will bring me back into line there.<\/p>\n

Speaking of those October goals:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Finish my bicycle shirt<\/del>.<\/li>\n
  2. Submit book proposal for Head of State Cakes to at least 3 agents.<\/li>\n
  3. Make some jewelry. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    My month, for this project starts on the 9th.  and I’ve started in on these month’s goals. <\/p>\n

    Finishing the bike shirt was one of the goals that I had set in the past as a goal, but I’ve been on a bit of a sewing streak, so I decided to get on with it. I want to sew everything that I’ve already cut out.<\/p>\n

    For me, I think that it is helpful to think about sewing projects in phases, and to think of each phase as a project in and of itself. Those phases are the pattern adjustment phase, cutting out the fabric, and sewing the garment. Something about thinking of it this way is really helpful.<\/p>\n

    Back to the book proposal. I know what I want to do to the draft to improve it, and plan to do that sometime this weekend. One of the people who peer-reviewed it graciously offered to edit it, and I’m going to take her up on it (and figure out what kind of baked treats do best in the mail). Once I get that done, there is only the matter of submitting it. That, historically, has been the hardest part for me, but this time, I’ve decided that I’m going to do it. And that is that.<\/p>\n

    Regarding the jewelry, I’ve been collecting ideas for a while and want to just do some of the things on my list. Until I’ve tried the things, they will hang out in my mind as things I should do. They’re in there taking up space and resources! I need to just get them out of my system once and for all.<\/p>\n
