Goals...what are they?

Okay so after promising myself to keep my writing and walking goals everyday, I feel like I may have to rethink my goals.

The walking goal was created to maintain my fitness and even though I was tired or (slightly) sick, I managed to accomplish my 10,000 steps. Walking helped me clear my mind and focus on my writing, so I made sure I kept at it.

Now for the writing goal- that has been a little difficult to achieve. Yes, many authors advise writing at least 500 words everyday, but that can be a little challenging. I'm currently working on the climax of a novel that is perhaps going to be part of a series (haven't decided that yet) and I've planned a major cliffhanger. The problem is getting to that part and writing up believable dialogues that would lead to that event.

So today, while I tried to reach my goals, I decided that it I'll have to give myself a day off every now and then. It doesn't help that I'm sick today and had to drag my feet to accomplish my walking goal. Being sick also isn't helping with overcoming the block in the story.

Tomorrow is another day though, and tomorrow I'll keep my goals!

The Limehouse Golem- My take on the movie with spoilers!

PLOT SUMMARY: When Elizabeth's husband is found dead, all fingers point to her. But is it really her or the work of a serial killer? If like me, you’ve read hundreds of mysteries and are enthused about Sherlock Holmes tales, THE LIMEHOUSE GOLEM is actually pretty predictable. Set in the Victorian Era, it promises to instil fear in you. Before Jack the Ripper, there was Golem- such is the tagline and you do want it to be the kind of movie that keeps you guessing until the very end as to the true identity of the killer. Unlike the Jack the Ripper legend, Golem is easily recognizable in the very first instance the character is introduced.

Look Away— my take on the movie with spoilers!

Plot Summary: A bullied girl switches places with her reflection. She soon regrets her decision as people start dying. What matters most? Looks or confidence? When we see someone for the first time, we do notice their looks, the way they dress. Personality and their ability to initiate and hold a conversation comes second, doesn't it? Imagine meeting someone who is good looking but is dull to the core. Now imagine someone with average looks but is someone you can have fun with or have an intellectual conversation. Which seems more attractive? Look Away takes a very bold stand where appearances are concerned. But also about self-confidence. In the end, the only argument it makes is that one cannot possess both attributes. LOOK AWAY Movie Plot We are introduced to a timid girl, Maria whose father is a plastic surgeon. Her mother is shown to have no say of her own. She is left to watch her husband ridicule his daughter about not being careful with her looks. Maria has a friend Lily
