smallhobbitHello, I'm back! Did you miss me? I didn't know I'd gone either, but LJ in its wisdom informed me it had had problems with the notifications sent to me for the past week (the ones I have been following up, reading posts, replying to comments, arranging betas for Holmestice all week) and therefore I needed to validate my email address, or else I couldn't play any more. Stupid goat!
But now I am able to review my goals. It's a good job one of the goals wasn't to post regular reviews ...
Goal 1 - Carry on writing all the things. Oh yes! For some reason something finally spurred me into action. I'm now back on track to achieve my lower target of 120,000 words and even exceed that, although I won't make the 150,000 words.

smallfandombang Lewis fic is progressing nicely and the Spooks Lucas/Adam fic should be finished by the end of this month. I've now earned 52 shiny badges from fan_flashworks although the Gold SBIGTTS Writing badge still eludes me. However I have earned the Bronze SBIGTTS Poetry badge for which I have to thank the encouragement of sherlock60 and in particular ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
scfrankles and the excellent poet debriswoman
Goal 2 - Read more and widely. Another triumph thanks in great part to my flist. The only problem, as I was bewailing tomoth2fic is that every time I post a book review and clear three books out of the book basket, the flist promptly suggest other books and it refills! Not that I'm complaining - you all seem to have excellent taste! I'm passing books onto charity shops (in Tewkesbury there is a charity bookshop which stocks all sorts), but if any of my UK based flist would like anything I've read, give me a shout and I'll send it to you (no charge). Postage elsewhere would probably be more than buying the book. And as if on cue, the postman has just delivered two more books!
Goal 3 - More theatre. Doing well so far! 15 plays since the end of April (which is when I set my goals), and a further 7 booked up to April 2016 (and 2 more after that).
