ISBW #514: How to do long term goals

<p>So I tried hard to get a better format, and screw it up immediately by saying it's episode 513. Sigh.</p> <p>We talk about the music of Devo Spice, who gives permission for my before- and after- stream music, and I very clumsily recommend his song Spider Verses. </p> <p>Speaking of music, I also talk about <a href= "https://youtu.be/Kw2qEUwFbGM">Loser</a> by Garfunkel & Oates. This version edits the F-bombs.</p> <p>About goals- remember that you want to make goals you can keep under your control. "Want to write the next Star Wars novel," not under your control. "Want to write a book by end of year," yes. "Sign with dream agent," can't control, but "research and query many agents," yes.</p> <p>I bring up <a href="https://24hourplays.com/">24 Hour Plays</a>, where I queried to see if they'd like a writer (under my control), and never heard anything back (not under my control.) I did everything I could, so I'm happy with that.</p> <p>I'm supporting Duke Children's Hospital through <a href= "https://www.extra-life.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=donordrive.participant&participantID=413409"> Extra Life</a>!
