Bulletin Board of the Nerds
All of the projects that I want to and/or am contractually obligated to work on over the next few months have been placed on a large bulletin board. An index card lists the project, and multi-colored pushpins underneath the cards (in red, yellow, purple, blue, pink, white, and two varieties of green) represent 1000-word increments. There are also index cards for the individual stories I have to edit for UNTIL SOMEBODY LOSES AN EYE, and the category introductions I have to write for when I host the EPPIES banquet in March.
Next to the Bulletin Board of the Nerds is a barren bulletin board. As I yank pins out of the first board, they will be moved to the second board. So any time during 2007 I can look over and say "I'm a slacker! A horrible, horrible slacker!" and wallow in an appropriate amount of shame, or say "Whoa! I am a writing MACHINE! Time for some Bejeweled 2!"
Here's a very poor camera-phone picture of the board for your ridicule.
