Nothing like the excitement of a new project to get my creativity rolling. I love the beginning of projects, when all possibilities are open and the road is yet traveled. So here we start Humblearts Journal on blogger. I've had my blog for a few years but over the last two years it's been beyond neglected. My old computer is not a fan of typepad and I'm over here blogging almost everyday anyway for my beady empire.
So what shall we start with? A list and a plan for November. I'm giving a presentation at our next SCBWI meeting on Marketing for Authors and Illustrators. So I need to practice what I'll be teaching and preaching. I'm great at the knowing, not so good at the doing!
Daily:
twitter/facebook/blog - keep up with what's going on in the industry, get my name & work out there.
Update my mailing list for 15 minutes day.
Week One:
Week Two:
Work on 2 new dummy samples
Send out postcards
Outline for craft book proposal
Week Three:
Send out dummy
Write query letter
Marketing research for craft book proposal
Bite size, specific and with a deadline. Now that's how you set a goal. (Illustrator quakes in boots, must stay consistent...)
