I want to write three new specs and one more pilot, if at all possible, and with any other space I have left, finish my novel.

Eeek, I hope you're here on Monday, Scott :-) If not, we shall all keep calm and carry on, maybe keep calm and eat a cupcake if more solace is required, and wish you all the very best in your creative work and life. The landscape is certainly changing, the mesh of blogs that exist, and how they exist, like John August without comments, and now we're down to one script magazine with new owner. How that mesh best evolves to reflect the smarts and savvy shared by content creators and the zeal of the audience, who knows. Writing goal, one full length script that exorcises newbie demons, using Nicholl's deadline as deadline. I hope SMC continues even if GITS doesn't.
