Episode 7: Done & Done


This week at GUMshoes, we've got a special episode for you! We discuss the accountability system that we developed years ago, and how we've turned it into a book.

It's called Done & Done: The Power of Accountability Partnering for Reaching Your Goals. Since Annette and I became accountability partners almost four years ago, we've accomplished a lot:

Luisa has written FOUR novels and several short stories, essays, and songs. (And co-written one book!) She's had demanding church assignments (she currently teaches a daily early morning scripture study class to 14 high school students), community volunteer opportunities--and she's got six kids.

Annette has gotten even more writing done. She's written SIX novels, SEVEN novellas, significantly revised and expanded her grammar book, and co-written this book! That's about 600,000 words in just shy of four years. Mind-bogglingly cool. She has also edited many other people's books and kept her own household going (she has four kids).

Despite our busy writing lives, we've worked hard to put our faith and family first: worship, scripture study, Date Nights, Family Home Evenings, vacations, toilet training, college and mission applications, recitals, and athletic events--two awesome husbands and ten active kids have always been at the top of our priority list.

We tell you all this not to brag, but to illustrate what can be accomplished when you make and share a plan and then stick to it through the power of accountability. Truly, great things come from small, consistent daily activities.

Get the book, try the system out for yourself, and see what YOU can get Done & Done!
