Day 15...Week 2 - Let's Set Some Goals & Design Some Book Covers...

Welcome to Day 15...

Hope you're having a good Monday...

I started the day with working on a scene with my two main characters...in Las Vegas...by the pool.  Who said writing wasn't fun?  Before I start my work week, I'm already a few thousand miles away in Sin City. (In my mind at least anyway...)

I posted an inspirational message on FB to keep us all motivated...

I also set up my goals for the week...I hope you're feeling motivated and committed.  And... writing down some goals to slay too.

Here are mine...

Okay so...I've not only completed number 11 on my marketing list,  I decided to do something fun this time around.  I've been looking over some images on the stock photo websites and haven't been able to decide which one I like best so I set up a survey/contest so readers can help me pick the main cover photo.

I set up the form in Google Forms and embedded the survey in my blog on Synchronicity.  You can read all about the contest in Synchronicity right now!  I'll keep you posted on the results. 

Just trying to stay motivated and Build the Buzz...

That said, here's Today's Takeaway Lesson...In case you haven't noticed, today's all about being motivated and staying committed...

"Commitment means staying loyal to what you said you were going to do, long after the mood you said it in has left you..."

Here's to Being All In,

Maggie
