www.inkthinkerblog.com — As I mentioned in an earlier post, Pickles is as much work as a newborn baby, and even more since newborn babies can’t run around your house and pull things down on themselves or leap off the couch and stun themselves. However, she does sleep occasionally, and that’s allowed me to get a LOT done this week:
– finalized the identity brochure I mentioned last weekend
– finalized the website I also mentioned last weekend
– wrote an article for the PEN newsletter
– edited (and invoiced for!) nine scholarly journal articles (and was assigned six more)
– finalized (and invoiced for!) a column for a trade journal
– finalized a brochure project that had been dragging on for-ev-er
– got an assignment for a six-part series for the same trade journal for 2007
– finalized a new assignment for a parenting magazine (the two queries I mentioned last weekend rolled into one article)
– gave a quote for a new coaching client
-finished editing proposal chapters for another memoir that’s going to blow all of your minds, currently being shopped in America after being published overseas in another language (will brag ASAP, but in the meantime, keeping my mouth shut while doing a happy dance)
– resigned from my position at andwerve literary magazine due to, shall we say, creative differences
– submitted a personal essay to Cezanne’s Carrot
– took 200 pictures of my puppy (probably a conservative estimate)
– took myself out for coffee
– actually DID my HOMEWORK (which never happens)
– caught up on my quickly filling in-box
– went through the newspapers I’d set aside over the last week and cut out articles for future reference (and then recycled the leftovers!)
Next week should bring a NEW ISSUE OF NOTES IN THE MARGIN (subscribe now if you haven’t already!), plus some work on a brochure for me and, gasp, one of the long-awaited self-promotion series articles. Tune in soon.

My word Kristen! When did you get the minute to take yourself out for coffee?
Sounds like she had a coffee IV permanently attached to her arm!
