Shit to Get Done for September 2020!

01/09/2020 by L.J. Diva Filed Under: Business & Legalities, L.J. Diva's Books Leave a Comment

Let’s get into what I achieved in August from the list of shit to get done…

 

1 – Finish the large prints, dust jacket hard and hardcovers of the PSB series. Make any corrections before re-uploading and SETTING A RELEASE DATE!

(I have completely redone the large print books in a different font, which is why it’s taking so long. I also needed to buy the proofs of my hardcovers, and some of them will need tweaking. For all I know NONE of the books will be out until the end of the year.)

2 – Finish this year’s novel and have it edited and ready for release.

3 – Get everything ready concerning the last book in the series, such as, THE COVER!!!!!, Book quotes, and blog posts.

4 – Write September’s blog post.

Okay, so as you can see I definitely did this blog post, and definitely did #2 and 3. #1 is in red, which means, it’s just not happening with everything going on this year.

But the last book in the Porn Star Brothers series will definitely be released as an e-book on September 19th.

 

Okay, so let’s launch into what I want to do in the month of September…

 

1 – RELEASE the last novel in the Porn Star Brothers series, And Always, on September 19th.

2 – Do book quote and book release blog posts.

3 – Do my yearly Jackie Collins post.

4 – Get the interior done for the print books.

5 – Do October’s blog posts.

6 – Maybe get the print covers done? That will all depend on the cover designer.

So there you have it, six items for September’s shit to get done list. We’ll see on October 1st whether I achieved them or not.

 

Meanwhile, here’s August in social media pictures…

 

 

 

Shit to Get Done for August 2020!

Let’s get into what I achieved in July from the list of shit to get done…

 

1 – Finish proofing the large prints and the dust jacket hard covers of the novels, and hardcovers of the PSB series. Make any corrections before re-uploading and SETTING A RELEASE DATE!

 – If they’re not coming this month, then it’s definitely August 19th.

2 – Finish writing this year’s novel and type it up, maybe even give it its first edit.

3 – Write August’s blog post.

 

Okay, so as you can see I definitely did this blog post.  And 1 and 2 are in the orange, which means, there is one chapter left to write and then type up and the first draft will be done. You can see from my social media pics below the word count jump over a two week period. At this stage the last book in the Porn Star Brothers series will be released as an e-book on September 19th.

As for the large prints and hardcovers. Fingers crossed they will be released September 19th as well.

 

Okay, so let’s launch into what I want to do in the month of July…

A Half-Yearly Catch-Up and Shit to Get Done for July 2020

01/07/2020 by L.J. Diva Filed Under: Business & Legalities, L.J. Diva's Books Leave a Comment

 

First, I’ll get into the update on the list of shit to get done.

 

I’ll leave out everything I had already done in January and just concentrate on everything else.

What was already in the making this year…

– 1 – The release my four standalone novels in large print and dust jacket hardcovers.

They’re almost done. I just need to proof them and then they are released in March or April.

Okay, so clearly THAT didn’t happen, but they are planned for August or September, most definitely.

 

– 2 – The release of the Porn Star Brothers series in dust jacket hardcovers.

As above. They’re almost done. I just need to proof them and then they are released in March or April.

Again, didn’t happen in those months, but are planned for release in September.

 

What I have planned for the year…

– 1 – Write the next and last Porn Star Brothers book.

Consisting of five stories it should take as long as a normal novel, although my novels aren’t normal length. I’m thinking 60 handwritten pages per story, so 2.5 notebooks, and about 3 weeks. But then, I never know what will happen when it comes to this family and these stories.

– 1.1 – Type them up, edit them, send them off for editing, edit some more.

– 1.2 – Get the covers done, check the proof and release it as an e-book, paperback, and dust jacket hardcover in September.

– 2 – Try and post to Insta, FB, TW more during the week at L.J. Diva and Porn Star Brothers, and pin to my Pinterest boards monthly.

– 3 – Get a mailing list set up for my books and a newsletter set up on the website.

The book is nearly finished, but not typed up, edited, no cover, no nothing. I now post once a week plus blog posts, and the mailing list is still waiting….

 

 

Let’s get into what I achieved in June from the list of shit to get done…

 

 1 – Finish proofing the large prints of the novels, and then the dust jacket hard covers and make any corrections before re-uploading and SETTING A RELEASE DATE!

2 – Finish writing this year’s novel, of which I’m nearly there.

3 – Continue looking into newsletters and mailing lists.

4 – Write July’s blog post.

Sooooo….I did one thing, but two are still on the move! And I’ll pretty much give up worrying about mailing lists right now because, you know, books to get done!

 

So if you want to see the others things I’ve been up to, head over to my style blog, Jewel Divas Style. 

 

Okay, so let’s launch into what I want to do in the month of July…

 

It’s the school holidays, so hopefully I’ll have two weeks to finish the novel and type it up.

1 – Finish proofing the large prints and the dust jacket hard covers of the novels, and hardcovers of the PSB series. Make any corrections before re-uploading and SETTING A RELEASE DATE!

If they’re not coming this month, then it’s definitely August 19th.

2 – Finish writing this year’s novel and type it up, maybe even give it its first edit.

3 – Write August’s blog post.

So there you have it, three items for July’s shit to get done list. We’ll see on August 1st whether I achieved them or not.

 

Meanwhile, here’s June in social media pictures…

 

 

Shit to Get Done for June 2020!

01/06/2020 by L.J. Diva Filed Under: Business & Legalities, L.J. Diva's Books Leave a Comment

Let’s first get into what I achieved in May from the list of shit to get done…

 

1 – NOT celebrate my 46th birthday!

2 – Finish proofing the large prints of the novels, and then the dust jacket hard covers and make any corrections before re-uploading and SETTING A RELEASE DATE!

3 – Continue writing this year’s books.

4 – Continue looking into newsletters and mailing lists.

5 – Get back to commenting on other blogs. Although I have a feeling this may never happen.

6 – Write June’s blog post.

Well, I kinda sorta didn’t celebrate my birthday.

I do have the large print novels, I just need to read them to proof them, but haven’t even got the djs yet.

So if you want to see the others things I’ve been up to, head over to my style blog, Jewel Divas Style.

Shit to Get Done for May 2020!

01/05/2020 by L.J. Diva Filed Under: Business & Legalities, L.J. Diva's Books Leave a Comment

Let’s first get into what I achieved in April from the list of shit to get done…

 

It was also the technical school holidays, even though most schools had been let out weeks ago because of the corona virus. It was also easter so I took time off to try and get shit written.

1 – Finish the other books so there’s a release date for the four novels, and all Porn Star books.

2 – Do the one thing that’s most important and that’s to start writing this year’s book, OR, at least, write out a base plan for it.

3 – Continue looking into newsletters and mailing lists.

4 – Get back to commenting on other blogs.

5 – Write April’s blog posts.

 

As you can see, my monthly list is a bit of a hodge podge.

I received the proofs of the large prints of the four novels, but the djs still need fixing. 

I wrote two of the five stories for the final Porn Star Brothers series, after writing outlines. I also wrote some emails, faffed around online, and only did a bit of shopping.

So if you want to see the others things I’ve been up to, head over to my style blog, Jewel Divas Style. There’s books reviews that have been posted the last few weeks.

 

Okay, so let’s launch into what I want to do in the month of May…

 

1 – NOT celebrate my 46th birthday!

2 – Finish proofing the large prints of the novels, and then the dust jacket hard covers and make any corrections before re-uploading and SETTING A RELEASE DATE!

3 – Continue writing this year’s books.

4 – Continue looking into newsletters and mailing lists.

5 – Get back to commenting on other blogs. Although I have a feeling this may never happen.

6 – Write June’s blog posts.

 

I’m waiting on one of the dust jacket hard cover novels as it needs work, and the hardcovers of Porn Stars are ready to be proofed, so that will happen this month, BUT, I’m hoping that it means the books will come out sooner rather than later.

So there you have it, six items for May’s shit to get done list. We’ll see on June 1st whether I achieved them or not.

 

Meanwhile, here’s April in social media pictures…

 

 

 

Shit to Get Done for April 2020!

01/04/2020 by L.J. Diva Filed Under: Business & Legalities, L.J. Diva's Books Leave a Comment

 

Let’s first get into what I achieved in March from the list of shit to get done…

 

1 – Release Spiros & Jenny on March 19th in paperback.

2 – Finish the other books so they have an April 21 release date for the four novels, and a June 21 release date for all Porn Star books. These are just tentative dates at this time.

3 – Get the character lists done on the long weekend. It’s only the four novels that need doing, but then I’ll need to set them all up on the website.

4 – Do the one thing that’s most important and that’s to start writing this year’s book, OR, at least, write out a base plan for it.

5 – Continue looking into newsletters and mailing lists.

6 – Get my details uploaded for PLR (Public Lending Rights) for my books to earn money from library borrows. I managed to send 25 books off to the NLA (National Library of Australia) for legal deposit. And maybe I can get Spiros & Jenny off before the March 31st cut off date.

7 – Get back to commenting on other blogs.

8 – Write April’s blog posts.

 

As you can see, my monthly list looks like a toffee apple, or to those Americans who follow me, a candy apple. I did four things on the list and didn’t do four. Even Stevens.

I also had other things to take care of, such as a twelve hour stint in hospital after twelve hours of pain that flattened me for the rest of the week.

I wrote some emails, uploaded my books into the PLR, watched the corona virus and saw the Aussie Dollar flatline in America. I also went down a rabbit hole crushing on a drummer much younger than me but at least he gave me a hell of a lot of inspiration for a story/novel. Not sure how it will go yet, have some details written but nothing solid. I have other things to write first.

And if you want to see the others things I’ve been up to, head over to my style blog, Jewel Divas Style.

 

Okay, so let’s launch into what I want to do in the month of April…

 

Before I start, it’s also the technical school holidays this month, even though most schools here have been let out weeks ago because of the corona virus. It’s also easter so I will be taking the time off to try and get shit written.

1 – Finish the other books so there’s a release date for the four novels, and all Porn Star books. These are no dates at this time due to waiting on my cover designer.

2 – Do the one thing that’s most important and that’s to start writing this year’s book, OR, at least, write out a base plan for it.

3 – Continue looking into newsletters and mailing lists.

4 – Get back to commenting on other blogs.

5 – Write April’s blog posts.

 

So there you have it,five items for April’s shit to get done list. We’ll see on May 1st whether I achieved them or not.

 

Meanwhile, here’s March in social media pictures…
