And so Labor Day has come and gone and summer is unofficially, officially over. This week begins my new work schedule. Today I'll be heading to Dowling to start replenishing glazes and slips and I am sure numerous other things.

Last Thursday we had a Pronto meeting at Pearl Studios, which was successful. A lot was accomplished and we should be coming into the convention season with guns blazing.

For my own work I've begun to update and rework my website, as well as researching marketing again. I am finding that if I make a detailed list everyday of what I need to accomplish it makes it easier for me to stay mentally organized and not get overwhelmed.

One of the reasons, I think, I was not as successful over the summer at accomplishing my goals, was that I wrote large ambiguous goals, like "work on website." Now that is a goal I've wanted to get to all summer long, but thinking about what it entails would often cause "paralysis by analysis." However, by writing down that goal and then writing down everything else that needs to be done:n updating my resume, adding/removing art, looking over the copy helps me realize what needs to done and allows me to focus and attack the project.
