That is one of...Hi, Rance, thanks for stopping by.<br /><br />That is one of the downsides of goals, isn't it? When you fail, at least if you're like me, it can be really easy to do the whole "Well, I tried." attitude and chuck it all away. Been there. Done that. Don't want the T-shirt, thankyouverymuch.<br /><br />That's where I'm really hoping the support network that exists will be a boost if I get down. Likewise, I hope I'm boosting others up as well.<br /><br />And, yes, I would be thrilled to work with you sometime on swapping stuff for Beta reading. In fact, I've got a couple of stories that are ready for Beta, so I will likely touch base with you soon!Michael Hayneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07653617216453974106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4316520203162903419.post-71943358308082508352011-09-15T19:46:36.122-04:002011-09-15T19:46:36.122-04:00Michael,

That's how I function too -- goals, goals, goals, that way, I feel like I'm either succeeding or completely failing! :P<br /><br />If you ever need beta-eyes on a project, I'd love to help. It looks like you've got this all pretty under control!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4316520203162903419.post-48338936431334954422011-09-14T21:44:51.233-04:002011-09-14T21:44:51.233-04:00Thanks, JEFritz and Marlena, glad you're both ...Thanks, JEFritz and Marlena, glad you're both looking forward to Friday's piece!Michael Hayneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07653617216453974106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4316520203162903419.post-20805040499284963802011-09-14T19:37:22.581-04:002011-09-14T19:37:22.581-04:00Congrats on staying on target!
