What do you hope to finish reading or writing by the end of the month of June?

I have checked out 4 books of short stories. I want to read as much as I can from each to get a good grasp of well-written short stories. I also hope to finish writing 2 short stories, 2 non-fiction articles(or personal essays) and continue working on my novel.

I hope to finish Barry Longyear’s "ENEMY PAPERS",the complete "ENEMY MINE" trilogy in one book, by the end of June–if not summer–at least. "Enemy Mine" is my favorite sci-fi movie with Dennis Quaid and Louis Gossett,Jr. as two enemy pilots shot down over the same isolated planet and must learn to live together in peace (one was from Earth, the other was an alien) I need to get back to my novel, too. It’s working title is "Hitman"–which I entered in a Writer’s Digest writing contest last year (didn’t win, but I proved I could do it). :)

    I want to have reached the middle of my book, but it’s doubtful, really. I also want to have finished "The Lord of the Flies" that I’m currently reading and "The Vampire Lestat" that I bought the other day.

    I’ve also ordered another book, "A Density of Souls", but I think I’m gonna save it for the holiday. :)

    I’ve just signed a contract for an anthology story and have just started writing a book. No, June is not a good month for me to be finishing anything.

    I am going to start my regular classes in June, so i will not be having enough of free time. Add to that computer classes in the evening and I am left with lesser time. Howeer in whatever time I get i will try to finish atleast one more novel I will buy.
    I am planning either In The Country Of Men or In a Free State. If I wont get any of these I will have to make an on the counter decision. And yes I will try to write on more article for the newspaper at least. there is an issue coming to my mind, and carry on with my secret writing project…

    I am in the process of reading 12 books at this time. Two biographies, three histories, two on science, one 1950s novel, and four SF novels. If I can finish six I’ll be happy, but I’ll probably start at least four others.
