Busy Week of Work

My boss is gonna work me hard this week.

Jerk.

^^

Anywho, today I'm picking up the new photos on models from my last two shoots. Then I'll be cleaning up at home, and updating listings.

Then Tuesday and Wednesday, I'm gonna be taking photos of all the pieces I need to get photos of. I plan on including my latests pieces, rings... And belts.

Thursday is an early day... I'll be taking my dad to work, then picking my brother up from the air port. :P have to be up way to early that day.

Friday has a hair appt and gaming.  No clue what we're doing this Saturday, but I'm hoping we can visit my BFF and Nephew, since I'm the only family member to have seen Theo.

All in all, it should be a nice week, if busy. I need to finish editing Gwen Edur's story, which I'm gonna try and do this week... Along with everything else.

See, my boss is a jerk.

Saying goodbye...

No, not to blogging.

Yes, I've been more sporadic lately, but I'm here and I'm trying...

As I've said, I'm running a sale in my etsy shop.

Well, I've had my first sale from this.  ^^ Its one of my favorite pieces [kinda feel bad saying that. I do love all my jewels, but... I play favorites.  Some, I love more than others.]

Harvest Fae, a necklace I wasn't planning to make, but when I saw the gilded leaf at the store, it I had to make it mine. And the poor necklace sat on my dress form for more than a few days, as I waited to buy the perfect chain to complete it.

A lovely friend has picked it up, and I hope she'll let me show off some pictures of it with its new owners.

2015 Resolutions

So, I figured I'd post my 2015 Resolutions here.

They say that making it loud and vocal helps you out.  So, here's mine.

• Clean up my office/living room enough to make better use of it.
• Clear out the junk
• Organize the remaining junk
• Place for a chair to sit on when relaxing
• Clear a place for a table, chair, and cat condo
• Editing stories for publication.
• By June/July have 'The Charming Line's first 3-5 stories ready for publication, so I can roll them out monthly.
• Work on short stories for Far Horizons magazine
• Start work on the Women's Archetype anthology
• Have a solid $100 in the business account
• Have a solid $100 in the personal account
• Have over 600 pieces of jewelry in my inventory.
• Have as many of them listed in Etsy as I can
• Close the 'other' stores
• Do 2-4 shows
• Lose 25-50 lbs

And there ya have it.  Nothing's too over the top, everything is doable by the end of the year.  So.... Its out in the world, and I'll be placing it in more than one spot too.

BLACK FRIDAY, SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY AND CYBER MONDAY!!!

Yep, all of those.

I've got several items going on sale over at my ETSY shop.

Everything will be prediscounted, so no worries on remembering a special code or anything.  There are at least 30 pieces marked down to 30% off, but I'm thinking of adding in a few more.

Please don't forget to support your small business, they are the lifeblood of our homes.

Recouping

Last few days have been nothing but 'blargh.... I want to nap' after the weekend.  Which is pretty typical for con goers.  We're at the end of the season, but for those of us artist we're also at the start of the Holiday season.

No rest for the wicked.

I've been taking it easy, but plan on getting back into my routine next week.  I've got too much to work on not too. Between NaNo, the Etsy shop and everything, I've got to get busy.

That doesn't mean this will suffer however.  I'm going to work on some more posts and have things ready to send out daily.  Its even in my check-list.  :D

Expect to hear more about my my writing and any sales I've got coming up.  I may even include some blurbs.

Plus, I've been reading a fair amount and I want to review what I read for ya, so there's that too.

Meanwhile, this week is focused on getting better and tomorrow night, when I have the Costume Ball and awards show [aka, the HOLY CRAP event].

How are your lives looking?  Busy, boring, in a calm before the storm?
