Check your area (and then expand as needed) for homeschool groups... I was a member of a homeschoolers group and we were always looking for a social event to revolve around.... perhaps you could arrange to meet them at a library (meeting room?) and then the group could do two events in one session...<br /><br />Just a thought :)<br /><br />I feel as passionate about my opera singer's memoir, so "break a leg" :)Mark Koopmanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03634424953074803816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3797583622244194866.post-16644782834258691362015-09-01T05:36:46.549-07:002015-09-01T05:36:46.549-07:00Wow, that is a lot of goals!

I need to plot mine out for the month now that school is beginning at last and I'm not distracted by the spouse and kid at home goofing off while I work. My number one goal is to put in more solid hours writing. I have three projects going right now, and am realizing I don't have the best work habits.

I can't seem to think that way and the more I force myself to work on one project at a time, the less I get done. I'll literally stall and stare at the cursor for hours if I don't take five minutes to a half hour to work on another idea. Then, I can come back and work on the "main" project again. <br />Best wishes on No Rest!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08758645909554257089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3797583622244194866.post-66134606777344822702015-08-29T08:28:30.824-07:002015-08-29T08:28:30.824-07:00Go for it, Denise!
