About This Author

La Bene Vita
I am a professional musician, teacher  Open in new Window., (former) worship leader  Open in new Window., small business owner  Open in new Window., songwriter  Open in new Window., aspiring author  Open in new Window. and freelance nonfiction writer  Open in new Window. with a chemical engineering degree  Open in new Window..

But that's just my resume. My eclectic profile of vocations is only one of the ways in which I am uniquely me.

Here I chronicle my personal and professional goals and my efforts to achieve them. Occasionally I fail. Mostly, I take daily baby steps toward all my long-term goals. Much like the stories I pen, the songs I compose, and the business I run, I am always a work in progress.

Robert Waltz Author Icon's blog post today inspired me to employ the scientific method to the following hypothesis.

Hypothesis: I suck at routine tasks.
Evidence: "Note: Huh. I accidentally earned the animation today...."
Conclusion: Sometimes I accidentally meet all my goals, but "sometimes" =/= "routine", therefore, I do indeed suck at routine tasks.

Disclaimer: That wasn't actually the scientific method, since my "evidence" was anecdotal and a single data point does not a trend make. I could collect more data, but I could also be writing instead.

Which brings me to the point of today's discussion.

Blogging Goal Ahead...
I'd like to blog more consistently. So I spent a bunch of time
procrastinating when I could have just been blogging devising a structured weekly routine that I'm absolutely going to fail at. In fact, if you're interested in placing bets on how long I can keep up with the schedule, the window is over there. *Pointright*

The odds are
ever in your favor.

But today is "Writing Wednesday," so I'm writing about my weekly writing plan, which totally counts, even if it's more about logistics than actual writing today.

Weekly Writing Schedule Plan Approximation:
"Self" Sundays - blogging about myself and tracking health-related trends
"Music" Mondays - blogging about music / music education
"Writing" Wednesdays - blogging about the art (/logistics) of writing
"The Bradbury" Thursdays - writing a weekly short story
"Funny" Fridays - ? All I know is you'll laugh your asses off (or I will)

Tuesdays and Saturdays are dedicated to non-writing tasks (aka, my real job, lol.)

Did you notice the clever alliteration? Did you? Did you?
*Bigsmile* For once, the "The" in a title gets its due recognition. On a related note, we need some more variety in the starting letters of weekdays. Too many S's and T's, if you ask me.

There. I blogged about writing. Let the wagers commence.
