Ambitious April Action Plan

April 2, 2013 by Vicki

Ambitious April has begun. Time to start treating my writing as work. I need to set myself quotas for each day and have an established schedule. By the end of April, I wish have Luna’s Tale well on its way to completion. I, however, also need to continue achieving my other Resolutions to maintain my physical and mental health. I follow the motto of balance in all things to ensure a healthy lifestyle.
