My original plan was to submit my suspense novel, The Wasp, tomorrow but that date is now changed to December 12, 2006.  The Wasp is still a work in progress and I don’t feel I have it to a point where I could send a ‘good’ proposal out to agents or publishers.  I’m disappointed I haven’t worked as hard as I could’ve on getting it fleshed out.  The bones (outline) seems very solid and I don’t anticipate any major changes there, though I do see a lot of little changes as it’s fleshed out; and who knows, maybe there will be some major changes. 

My goal is to write 16 hours per week, but I’m not even close to that.  I’ve set myself up a calendar and I’m keeping track of the time I’m putting in and working on increasing that time weekly until I reach my goal.  I’m including reading about writing, and novels, in that time; but of course, writing has to be the majority.  Even thinking out the plot or characters is an important use of the time.
