March in Review (#SFWApro)

I completed every task I set myself. And doubled my usual monthly income.
April Fools.
Okay, brilliant wit aside, March was actually good, and I did make most of my writing goals (not, however, the financial ones).
•I submitted Impossible Takes a Little Longer to a new publisher, and to an agent.
•I finished 20,000 words of Southern Discomforts.
•I got the go-ahead for my time-travel book and wrote out a rough work plan. Admittedly it doesn’t amount to much beyond “watch lots of time-travel films and TV and write about them,” but it still feels good to have it written.
•I would have made 20,000 words of Brain From Outer Space if not for multiple unexpected errands yesterday (car problems and others)
•I redrafted The Worlds is a Stage, Oh the Places You’ll Go, The Day the Rabbits Ate People and Making a Famine Where Abundance Lies (title will probably change).
•I submitted four magazine queries, even though one of them had that dreadful typo in it.
•I made three meetings of my various writers’ groups and hung out after (as opposed to deciding I’m too tired and heading home).
•I submitted all current short stories. Kernel of Truth came back and based on the feedback, may need some rewriting, but everything else is still under consideration.
•I shaved about eight hours off my fiction-time deficit.
•I have our taxes ready to go,though I’m giving them one more going-over first.
On the downside, with Demand Media temporarily off-line, I fell well short of my cash goals (which I expected). I also fell well short of 42 hours writing a week (which I didn’t).
I did manage to relax and enjoy what I do, without too much stressing out.
Overall, satisfactory. Hopefully despite the time-sucks like car problems (and did I mention we have plumbers coming in—nothing house-threatening, just an annoyance we want dealt with—which will eat up a couple more hours) April will do better (insert obligatory reference to the cruelest month here).
