Summer Goals

Good call, Billie. A little accountability is always useful. I'm going to post some goals here too. First, though, a good friend of mine just got back from doing the same thing in Daytona (AP grading, I mean. Not posting goals on DBC). I wonder if you two ran into each other. So weird.

My husband and I just got back from visiting friends in Pennsylvania and Maryland. We were gone for a week -- a much needed but now panic-inducing vacation. So it's back to work.

Goals for June:
Today I have to do all of the copyedits for the collection of student writing that I, well, edit. I have to send that back to the publisher (a printed camera-ready copy) tomorrow morning.

I'll finish a very rough draft of my invitational rhetoric chapter by July 1st. It's mostly done. I just need to read a bit more and then write a small section on Rogerian rhetoric.

July-August:
I'll have a rough draft of an article done by July 31st.

I'll have a full rough draft of my lit review done by August 14th. I'll also have a second draft of my article by that same date.


I think I'm going to head back home for ten days for my dad's 70th birthday, but I'd also like to have another full chapter draft done before the job list comes out.

I'm not completely sure it's do-able, but these are my goals for the summer.

The goals do look aggressive, but not impossible. It sounds (from your other blog) like you've been getting some good work in lately, so that's a good sign.
