Since I have the day off from my day job (thanks, Dr. King!), I planned on spending the day finishing some writing projects and getting those query letters out. I'm an obsessive list-writer, so here's what I had down for today:
9:30-10am: breakfast and blogging
10-11am: query letter writing
11-11:30: phone interview for article in progress
11:30-12: incorporate quotes into article
12-12:45pm: lunch and reading blogs
12:45-1pm: clean-up and take out trash
1-3pm: complete articles in progress
3-3:30pm break
3:30-5pm: more query letter writing and research
The forecast called for snow, so I should have been free from distractions and ready to buckle down and write. But things got off to an inauspicious start when I overslept (hey, this girl needs her beauty sleep). Here's how I predict the rest of the day will go:
10:30-11am: blogging and reading of blogs
11:15am: what phone interview?
11:28-12: phone interview and incorporating of quotes
12:02-12:15pm: pondering if I have new messages on facebook...
12:16-12:22pm: checking facebook
12:30: still on facebook
12:33: lunch!
1:05: call from the bf (what? its long distance, so we need our phone time)
1:33: still on the phone...
2:01: finally start query letters
You get the idea... Now let's see if I can prove myself wrong!

Sounds like my day everyday (not being able to keep to the schedule I have set for myself)! Or at least until the little guys go to bed. Have fun on your day off.
I love a girl that makes her own daily schedule! ;)
Thank you both for your support. There'll be an update at the end of the day.
Just wanted to let you know that I'm adding a link to your blog on my own (http://jmwriting.blogspot.com). I enjoy your postings.
Thanks, Jessica, I just did the same! (You have the same initials as my college roommate so for a second I thought she'd entered the blogosphere.)
