Oh my goodness, this was the week that never ended! It was great and I got a ton of work done, but I am SO in need of a weekend.
- I signed four new clients, including a very high-profile writing project, a writing client from Australia, and an editing client from New Zealand.
- I sent out several dozen job inquiries based on leads I got from Anne, Deb, and Suzanne.
- I posted my summaries for the March 10 WIW seminar on Marketing Yourself and Your Writing (click here, here, here, and here).
- I made 10 posts on Inkthinker, including this one (I’ve been slacking)
- I made 10 posts on LivelyWomen.com (also slacking)
- I gave Kristen King Freelancing another facelift to match my business cards.
- I edited 6 scholarly journal articles.
- I put in about 6 hours with the proofreading company I contract with.
- I walked about 10 miles on purpose (go, Kristen and Pickles!).
- I finished my taxes.
- I posted 13 articles to EzineArticles.com for the Lieurance-King New Year’s Article Challenge.
- I let Ivan have it.
Sheesh! This weekend, sadly, will not be the weekend I so desperately need. I’ve got I don’t even want to think about how many pages I have to get through in the nursing textbook study guide sitting next to me on the extra chair, mocking me, along with a towering stack of items to be filed, and half a dozen invoices to send out. Wouldn’t it be nice if people just mailed me money for the heck of it? Oh, I would love that.
How did this week go for you?

Kristen, my done list isn’t as good as yours but I’m still happy about the week I had:
Sent out 9 queries, followed up on 7 queries, had 1 article approved for publication, designed and ordered new business cards, and posted six entries on The Breast Blog and four entries on A Writer’s Blog.
PLUS I cleaned out the salt water tank in my son’s second grade classroom. That’s an accomplishment!
Oh, Kristen. I thought I had been so productive and then I read your post! I posted some articles to Go Articles, signed a new client, wrote an e-book for a client, wrote 100 keyword articles for another client, argued with another client over why his payment is 47 days late, and did some blogging and Web site work of my own.
I love your Web site design, BTW. It seems very “you” (as much as I know about you from your blog).
We’re so close in age – we’ll have to give everyone a run for their money at BEA!
it has been insane, not even counting a radio interview with a psycho!!
xoxo
PS…i did my taxes too. glad it is DONE. definitely doing estimated payments next year.
When does she sleep?! I’m thinking NEVER… Way to go, Kristen!
Susan, when I came to the blog to answer the comments, the Sloganizer said “Kristen King Never Sleeps.” Too funny!
kf, that guy was a LOON! I am so sorry you had to deal with it. Do I feel an FCC complaint coming on? I think I dooo-oooo….
Girl, 100 keyword articles in one week? You put me to shame! Are you definitely going to BEA? E-mail me and we’ll talk p-a-r-t-i-e-s.
Karen, be sure to post pics of your new biz cards! Can’t wait to see them.
I will Kristen … as soon as I get hubby to scan them. I’m a bit scanner challenged.
