Why hello everyone. Welcome back to my blog. First time I’ve been on here in *muffle muffle* and I’ve missed you! We’re halfway done with 2021. How???? Where does the time go? I… just… huh?!
So, as I try to sort that out, I am trying to get better at planning things and actually sticking to schedules. I can tell you’re rolling your eyes. You’re looking at all my past attempts that I’ve started and bombed. Stop it. I’m not perfect. I admit it. There was only one man in the world whoever was and He was here 2000 years ago.
Why am I doing this? Well, I’m trying to plan my work around various things in my life. Peanut has her therapy sessions and doctor appointments. I have my doctor appointments and my part time job. Trying to plan summer adventures as the world opens up a bit more. All while still treating this like it’s a job even though I’m not getting an income yet. (Although, I’m on Patreon and Ko-Fi if anyone would like to be so generous.) So, that leaves first thing in the morning, naptimes, and after dinner for my work hours. IF I don’t end up having to go somewhere. I will have these things marked on my calendar. However, if they change, I’ll mention it on Twitter or Insta where I’ve been most active lately.
What does this schedule include? When I’m posting videos, when I’m livestreaming on YouTube or Twitch on my own channels, and when I’m appearing on other channels to shoutout my friends. I’m also sharing when I’m posting here on my blog and on Patreon. So, let’s take a look at my week.
Mondays: Weekly Goals on Patreon- I share my goals for the week. Started doing this on a Facebook group and it’s great accountability so I decided to share it.
Game Streaming on Twitch- This might not happen every week but on some Mondays I’d like to stream some gameplay. It’ll be about between 1 and 4 PM EST (When Peanut is napping) I’d really like to build up my following there. I have several friends that are on Twitch and it seems like a great platform
Tuesdays: Productivity streams on YouTube between 1 and 4ish. Writing sprints have been one of the most helpful ways for me to stay productive. I also, sometimes, may have guests.
Misadventures of a Mom Author posts on Patreon- a special journal serial I’ve been working on. I thought about sharing it on Vella whenever it goes live but I might do something else.
Wednesdays: Discussion videos on YouTube- Now, this might not be every week either. All depends on time and topics I have to discuss. But, prerecorded, mostly edited videos will return to my channel!
WIP Wednesdays on Patreon- Sharing some “behind the pages” details like character profiles, deleted scenes, art
Thursdays: Productivity streams on Twitch- Same as the streams on Tuesdays except ending at 3:30 so we can raid my friends Kat and Glory who host the Coffee Bunny Crafters Cafe. (I can’t stream in more than one place through Streamyard because I have their free plan. One day, that’ll change)
Blog preview for Patreon- Sharing what goes on my blog a day early for Patrons
Fridays: Weekly blog post- I have a lot of topics I’ve been itching to write about. So they’ll be here for the world to see.
Weekends- Nothing. Weekends I’m either cleaning my office, working, or spending time with family. No content outside of maybe a Tweet or a cute Instagram photo. I gotta have some time off, right?
Now, that’s not to say there might not be some bonus stuff. Like today. My new normal post isn’t supposed to go live til Friday but here we are on a Wednesday. (Well, late Tuesday night as I’m typing it)
I hope you can come read or watch or whatever support you can for this new thing. Now, it is subject to change should the need arise. If Peanut outgrows naps or has an appointment. So, keep up with my on Insta or Twitter for all the updates. All the links are throughout the post.
As always, thank you for your support. Bye.
